Update on Natural Womens Care and Vita Doc

Dr Tamyra Comeaux is trained and board certified in Gynecology and Anti-Aging medicine. She spent his first 10 years in typical allopathic practice prescribing drugs and following the typical guidelines of traditional medicine. Then many of the prescription drugs she had been trained to give started to be removed from use (Vioxx) or placed under suspicion (Hormone Replacement Therapy).

She realized an entire world of self empowered medicine using lifestyle, nutrition and supplements was being overlooked and underutilized. So in 2010 she formed Vita Doc (teach life) and began creating her own supplement line to improve human performance health and longevity.


Q: You have quite a story, which I feel my readers will really relate to. In your own words, what happened that started you on your path to being a “radical” anti aging doctor?

A: Early in my career of Obstetrics and Gynecology, patients started throwing their hormones away, pregnant women would stop their antidepressants and other medications, and wonder what else they could do to manage their conditions without side effects. I researched natural treatment of various conditions and by the time I finished all those books I thought "I read so many books, I could have a degree in this". So I studied for my Naturopathic Medical Degree. My traditional training left me unprepared for these questions... and I sought answers.

Q: What were the different ideas that you investigated when searching the best that anti aging medicine had to offer? When all was said and done, what have you proven to be the best of the best?

A: To start out I became well versed in bioidentical hormone replacement for both men and women. In the early days of anti-aging medicine that was pretty much the main agenda. But I rapidly branched out and became fascinated with natural supplementation to augment health and longevity. I began to use diet, nutrition and supplement recommendations to help patients, and found out that I was having almost as much success as in the patients who still on their prescriptions. Next came the natural, herbal weight loss supplements to make up for the huge lack of safe and effective weight loss products.


Q: I have always wondered this, how does one go about formulating your own supplements? How much research went into getting yours just right?

A: The first step is to decide what your goals are with the supplement. Is it a performance enhancer? is it a basic health and longevity supplement?- is it for weight loss? etc. Then hopefully you have a strong background in herbs and nutrition (I have a separate Masters Degree in Holistic Nutrition) pharmacology and biochemistry (the undergrad science degree and the MD cover that). That allows you to understand the compounds you are dealing with on a very “human” level, then you research the literature to see what is out there and what has been done in animals, human cell lines and human studies. That alone will get you to “unique” status in the world of supplementation since most people aren’t making their supplements this way. Next I look for combinations of things that will boost the efficacy of the supplement to do what I want it to do and to give the person taking it real results. I rarely try to make a single supplement since I think it is far less likely to be useful in the body. That is why people who get on my stuff stay on it! Next you need a clinical practice willing to let you “test your theories”! I had and still have people ready and willing to be my beta testers. That said when I start with a supplement I take it myself for at least 3 months and I push the doses way higher than what I am going to sell to make sure they are safe and there is a large margin for error. I tried to make things people can't overdose on!

Once it’s been through the testing phase and I have tweaked it to work as well as possible with the input of my compounding pharmacists and chemists I then bring it to market. The entire process often takes at least 6 months. In terms of research hours it’s an ongoing thing. I spend the bulk of my days looking for new info both on new possible products and those already out there. It’s fascinating because when you hit the research right you find your product growing in value years later when new research comes out. People call me all the time and say "Dr. Oz talked about something you have on his show today!" My customers appreciate knowing they are getting something that is going to be way ahead of the curve and they get to use it first.


Q: If we could stop Telomeres from shortening, is it possible for humans to literally live forever?

A: The only truly immortal cell lines in our body, germ cells and the most undifferentiated stem cells are immortal because telomerase, the enzyme that lengthens telomeres and the same enzyme that TA-65 turns on, allows them to maintain healthy telomere length in spite of duplicating themselves. So in theory this is very possible but there are a lot of details we need to work out. We do know this much though, long telomeres are good for your health and longevity so it’s best to start as soon as you can to add length or at least slow down telomere loss. We also know that a small group of people have an overactive telomerase and they live longer than most, often exceeding 100. The problems is we probably need to start telomerase therapy every early in life something no one is doing, to “catch up” to the losses. If you are 60 or 70 telomerase therapy is going to help you immensely but to make up for the damage you’ve done in those years just by aging you’ll probably need both telomerase therapy and stem cells. I did Spectracell's telomere test on myself, and I became interested in supplements that improve telomere longevity. I have several that I use.

Q: Is there anything else going on at Vita Doc, that my readers might feel is important or any great news coming out soon you can share with us?

A: I am always working on something and the next couple of months will see the release of several new products. I have formulated an estrogen blocker, because estrogen dominance is prevalent in both males and females and is associated with fibrocystic breasts, breast and prostate cancer, abdominal fat gain, and fibroids. Hormone balance is very important and does not always respond to the addition of more hormones. Also, I have reformulated a the Female Balance by adding Maca and Horny Goat for additional libido support.

  1. I am deeply concerned about the still increase in population of people living with HSV, HIV, CANCERS, HEPATITIS, STROKES in our society today because of ignorance, to be Frank all this big names are grammars. I saw comments of people DR UTU helped get rid of their diseases, with the increase in population of people living with various diseases and myself as a beneficiary to DR UTU traditional cure I thought I too should reach the world via comment. Many People believed traditional herbs are so primitive and some are even shy to purchase it in public. Some went as far as trashing the legendary name of herbal medicine hiding its numerous advantages and let publicly it disadvantage and yet makes it look big, all this are just for pharmaceutical gain. All pharmaceutical cure are derived from existing traditional herbal cure from ages.
    Yes! I'm here to tell the world the actual FACT! which is; there is herbal cure for herpes, Ebola, HIV, cancers, hepatitis, ulcers, asthma, pile, diabetes and many big names of diseases. all my career I've lived my life believing and making research on this, till I confirmed it four years ago. Since four years ago and till today I still say yes! That among many real traditional herbalist Dr Nze Utu Njoku @ (drutuherbalcure) cures this diseases using African traditional herbs. After he cured me four years ago of genital herpes, ever since then I worked with him distance never a barrier, I'm a living witness to this. And I have directed both genital and oral herpes patients to him and they are permanently cured. I'm Ethan Oliver from Australia and also a herbal dealer and lover. I'm also a researcher on herbs for good health. Which also include Africa traditional herbal treatment, I support Herbal treatment, cure and vaccines. My view is based on my extensive research over a very long period of time, and my conclusion is, there is cure to all natural diseases including HSV, HIV, CANCERS, DIABETES, using the right medications with the right herbalist. Are you herpes positive and permanently want get rid of this disease or any of this big name diseases don't be scared to save yourself, contact Dr Utu for permanent herbal cure.
