IMMUNE POWER DIET: FOR YOUR OWN GOODNow it’s time to take just a moment for a few warnings.Some people have diseases or genetic conditions which make it unadvisable for them to take certain supplements in the Immune Quotient program. Specifically, if you have any of the problems I mention here, it is vital that you avoid the nutrients listed below.Of course, before you start the Immune Power program, I recommend you consult your own doctor to make sure you don’t have any hidden problem that could create problems with any of the supplements listed. Do not be surprised if many of your physicians are not familiar with immune power nutritional supplementations, as much of this information is new and not in their area of expertise.If you are pregnant, DO NOT TAKE more than 50 milligrams of vitamin B6 on a daily basis. All pregnant women should consult their own doctor before starting on this, or any other, supplementation regimen.If you regularly take medication or are under care for any chronic medical condition (especially heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes), your IQ supplements may mean you need less medication. Discuss this with your physician before taking any of the IQ supplements.Adolescents should not take these supplements without checking with their own physicians.If you have heart disease, consult your doctor to make sure how much vitamin D to take.If you have rheumatic heart disease, vitamin E can worsen your condition.

A common guiding principle of ethical decision-making is to ‘do no harm’, Fat-reduction methods have a number of risks that should be balanced against the potential benefits for each client.
For some people, for example those with diabetes or heart disease, the need to lose fat is paramount and the ethical balance is dearly in favour of attempting fat loss. Conversely, for some people the risks of losing fat, especially by dieting, are so great mat the ethical balance is usually in favour of discouraging fat loss (for example, people with anorexia nervosa, binge-eating disorder or a history of cyclical dieting).
The decision will not be so obvious in most cases and you will need a good knowledge of the potential risks and benefits of your approach to fat loss methods as well as carrying out a careful assessment of each individual client.
The treatment resources available.
Ethical decisions need to be realistic. That means they have to fit the actual circumstances rather than ideal circumstances. You need to take into account the actual treatment resources available, even if these differ from what would ideally be the case.
What treatment can you offer? This goes beyond consideration of your particular expertise and takes account of what you usually offer or any constraints imposed by the organisation for which you work.
What resources can you refer to? The ethics of offering help may differ according to the alternatives available. In circumstances where few other resources are available or your skills, however limited, exceed those of the available alternatives, it may be unethical not to offer help even though in the context of a richer range of alternatives, it would be ethical for you to refer on.
