PRN's commitment to product excellence, safety and efficacy is fundamental and unwavering. For a specific nutriceutical to become eligible for the PRN portfolio, a body of clinical evidence must support use of the supplement for prevention or treatment of disease.

For those reasons, PRN relies on guidance from a Scientific Advisory Board with a broad mandate to put science and the patient first. Composed chiefly of independent experts in a range of specialties, the Board studies every proposed new PRN formulation and the evidence for its use, and makes recommendations about dosages and indications.

Serving on the PRN Scientific Advisory Board are distinguished physicians—experts in cardiology, endocrinololgy, gastroenterology, general surgery, obstetrics/gynecology, orthopedics, rheumatology, and an M.D.-Ph.D. who is immediate past President of the Northeast Lipid Association. Several board members are senior faculty at Jefferson Medical College and the University of Pennsylvania.
