About Healthy Directions | Dr Whitaker
Healthy Directions manufacture formulas made by respected health professionals. They have been doing this since for more than two decades. All Healthy Direction vitamins are triple tested.
Dr. Whitaker graduated from Dartmouth College and earned his MD from Emory University. He finished his surgical internship at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta. In 1974, he co-founded the California Orthomolecular Medical Society along with four other doctors including two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling. In 1976, he joined the Pritikin Longevity Center, where he worked before opening the Whitaker Wellness Institute in 1979.
The Whitaker Wellness Institute, closed in 2018, was one of the oldest and largest providers of alternative health therapies in the United States.
