At the 2025 Nutrition and Supplementation in Clinical Care (NSCC) conference, Dr. Scott Shannon, MD, ABIHM—pioneer in integrative psychiatry and assistant clinical professor at the University of Colorado—shared a powerful endorsement of Hardy Nutritionals and their impact on modern psychiatric care.

Dr. Shannon, widely recognized for his innovative approach to mental health, highlighted the effectiveness of Hardy Nutritionals' Daily Essential Nutrients (DEN) in treating complex mental health conditions, especially bipolar disorder.

Importantly, Dr. Shannon has never received any financial support or compensation from Hardy Nutritionals — his advocacy is based solely on clinical experience and observed patient outcomes.

Broad-Spectrum Micronutrients: A Game-Changer in Psychiatry

Dr. Shannon explained that traditional psychiatric treatments often come with significant side effects and limited long-term efficacy.

In contrast, he emphasized the unique role of broad-spectrum micronutrients in offering a safer, more durable solution.

Key Quote:
"I've been a big fan of broad-spectrum micronutrients, [including] Hardy Nutritionals' Daily Essential Nutrients… [They are] my go-to treatment for bipolar disorder. I think they are better than anything we have in modern psychiatry, [offering] much less side effects and much more durable benefit."
— Dr. Scott Shannon, MD, ABIHM

This powerful statement underscores Hardy Nutritionals' pivotal role in bridging the gap between natural supplementation and effective psychiatric care.

Why Hardy Nutritionals Stands Out

• Comprehensive Formulation:
  Daily Essential Nutrients provides a complete range of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids essential for optimal brain function.
  
  

• Clinical Efficacy:
  Dr. Shannon reported more consistent and long-lasting results with DEN compared to conventional pharmaceutical options.
  
  

• Improved Safety Profile:
  Unlike many psychiatric medications, broad-spectrum micronutrients like DEN offer powerful benefits with significantly fewer adverse effects.
  
  

Moving Forward: The Future of Mental Health Care

As Dr. Shannon made clear at NSCC 2025, nutrition isn’t just complementary—it’s foundational. 

With Hardy Nutritionals at the forefront, broad-spectrum micronutrient therapy is transforming how we support complex mental health conditions. 

The future of psychiatry is evolving—and Daily Essential Nutrients is helping lead the way.
