Environmed Research Inc

Intelligent Solutions

Environmed Research Inc. was founded in 1984 In Vancouver, British Columbia by Stephen Gislason MD. The goal of the company was to pursue the basic biotechnology of health-promotion, and disease management prevention. The premise of the company was that the environment was the major determinant of health and disease; solving problems in the food supply, water, and air would be the basis of health-seeking activity in the future. The first focus was problems in the food supply. In Vancouver, Environmed Research became a publisher, an information hub, an educational group, a support system, a manufacturer of nutrient formulas and developer of the Alpha Nutrition Program, a basic strategy of nutritional medicine. Since 1984, publications and audio tutorials were issued under the name Persona.  Our first website was created in 1995.

Alpha Online is the main website developed by Environmed Research that makes medical information available online as a public service. We have in mind people who independently seek responsible information and are accustomed to making their own decisions. The first elemental nutrient formulas were developed and tested in 1989 and marketed in 1991 under the brand name ENFood. Alpha Nutrition was introduced as a registered trade name for formulas and publications in 1998. ENFood became Alpha ENF and other elemental nutrient formulas followed  the the Alpha Nutrition brand.

Environmed Research does not offer medical services. We provide educational services that should not be confused with medical diagnosis or treatment recommendations. It is our belief that if you are well informed, well motivated, and are an honest, responsible person, you can make decisions about your own management and benefit from our educational services. However, you are responsible for your own health care decisions.

We regularly receive requests for advice on managing an illness. Many of these requests can be answered by a more careful reading of texts online, reading our publications, or by signing up for email support. If you are interested in solving a health problem using nutritional therapy, consider ordering and reading the Alpha Nutrition Program Manual. Or you can start by ordering one of the Alpha Nutrition Starter Packs that addresses your needs. This is an Internet Online Service and we expect email correspondence. Direct Interaction with Alpha Nutrition is limited to Internet Online Ordering, email with the option of faxing orders to the online store.
