Pharmaceutical Grade Vitamins: Is there a difference?

For most people buying vitamins is simply a matter of going to the grocery store or pharmacy and picking up a bottle of the least expensive product. We all need to be good stewards of our money. No one is more frugal than I am. In fact, I was guilty of buying the cheapest vitamin I could find because I used to believe that “a vitamin is a vitamin”. I have always had a strong interest in nutrition. For the last 35 years I have studied nutrition and taken hundreds of hours of courses in nutrition. One thing that I have found to be a universal truth about vitamins is: “you get what you pay for”  As a patient of this pharmacy you may have noticed that we have expanded our line of “Pharmaceutical Grade Nutritionals” and reduced our line of lesser expensive vitamins.

What does “Pharmaceutical Grade” mean?

Most people do not realize that the FDA does not regulate the Vitamin industry. About the only restriction the FDA has is to mandate that no nutritional product can boast that they cure, treat or improve any disease state, unless it has been proven in a study conducted under the scrutiny of the FDA. Hence, you can be buying a Vitamin E 400 iu that could contain 100 units or none, and the FDA cannot take action against them. The vitamin lines that we carry such as Metagenics, Xymogen, Pure Encapsulations, Ortho Molecular and others are all Pharmaceutical grade companies.  Hence, if you buy Vitamin 400 iu, you are getting 400 iu. This is important because many disease states can be improved and even alleviated by using the right nutrient at the correct dose.

Why do they cost more?

These companies spend millions of dollars to build and develop techniques that insure the quality of their products. Each facility meets or exceeds the Good Manufacturing Practices (GNP) criteria as required by the FDA. They use chemicals that have been validated to be pure. The nutrients are picked or harvested at the peak of their potency. The results are that the nutrient that you are taking gives you the best chance to get the results you and your doctor desire. Hence one of my favorite sayings is: “The most expensive vitamin you will ever take is one that doesn’t work”.

Ayurveda Herbs

Ayurveda places great emphasis on prevention and encourages the maintenance of health through close attention to balance in one’s life, right thinking, diet, lifestyle and the use of herbs.

Flower Essence Services

Flower essences are unscented liquid, potentized plant preparations which convey a distinct imprint, or etheric pattern of a specific flower. Originally developed in the 1930’s by the Englis physician , Dr. Edward Bach, flower essences enjoy a reputation of being highly beneficial and safe to use. Because they contain only minute traces of physical substance, flower essences differ from pharmaceutical drugs, conventional herbal remedies or essential oils used for aromatherapy. They derive their active powers from life forces within natural substances. Their power derives from the principle of energetic resonance with the life pattern of the flower.

Homeopathy from Boiron

From the very beginnings of homeopathy, the plant, animal, and mineral substances (called “strains”) at the origin of these medicines were of vital importance. Boiron continues this tradition with ingredients that are as pure and perfect as possible.

The company goes to great lengths to ensure that substances are not contaminated by natural or human-made toxins. This process includes thorough quality control measures to assess the health and integrity of all active ingredients.

• Boiron sources more than 1,000 botanical substances, including Arnica montana, Calendula officinalis, and Chamomilla, from botanists and harvesters who take care to preserve the plants used and the land on which they grow. Following strict environmental protection procedures, many of these are hand-picked whole in their pristine natural habitats and processed fresh, not dried. Cultivation occurs in areas untouched by pesticides or fertilizers, far from polluted industrial or urban zones.
• Some medicines are derived from small animals, as well as from organotherapeutic sources. Boiron works with specialized companies to supply the materials and certify their quality, zoological identification, origin, and ethical method of procurement.
• Boiron’s chemical and mineral substances are acquired from natural sources, such as oyster shells (Calcarea carbonica), or pharmaceutical-grade active ingredients.
