Nutritional Custom Pharmacy

Pharmacy - naturopathic medicineNutritional products are essential; not only for daily recovery, but also to help you live a healthy, disease resistant and pain free life. Dr. Young’s products, properly formulated in a way that is readily bio-available to your body, are available through the office pharmacy.
Dr. Young works closely with several manufacturers of nutritional supplements in order to provide his patients with quality products. The concerns of providing pure, organic, bio-available and reasonably priced products are met by having an in-house pharmacy that is monitored for quality and effectiveness by Dr. Young.
Many health food stores, and especially most large retailers, sell poor quality nutritional supplements. These retailers buy large quantities of cheap products purchased from China and repackaged by American companies.The supplements are mostly unregulated and unsupervised. They may appeal to the "one-pill-a-day can solve all your health problems" mentality, but, in reality, they are well marketed, slick-packaged junk that is overpriced and glamorized to give an appearance of quality.
Dr. Young personally knows and interviews the companies that he works with. He requires them to certify that they follow only GMP (Good Manufactures Production) rules and regulations. Each company has to provide quality of ingredients and purity tests so that the products are certified pure and fresh.

Vitamins

Why do we need vitamins?

Proper nutrition is an increasing problem in our present culture. By the end of our day, most of us are not able to retire to bed fully nutritionally loaded and ready to recover and repair and rebuild our bodies from the activities and stress we have encountered.
Food in this country is grown on nutritionally depleted soils using lots of toxic chemicals and pesticides. The ear of corn that you buy from the large grocery store may smell and look like the corn grown in your grandmother's garden, but it won`t taste the same. It's easy for the corn plant, and other foods as well, to make the cellulose structure, but the micro-nutrition is just not there anymore.
Not only do we eat what is grown on large mega-farms with depleted soils, but the meat that we buy is also fed nutritionally depleted feed. The animal's feed is better supplemented than ours, but the farmers and growers do it with artificial and synthetic vitamins.
These synthetic vitamins, the same ones you can buy at the large box stores and chain pharmacies, do not make for healthy animals. To grow the animals faster and fatter, the farmers add antibiotics and hormones which pass through to us and our children in the meat products we eat.

There is a better vitamin

Dr. Thomas Young, a naturopathic medical doctor, biochemist, and physiologist has joined forces with a leading natural vitamin manufacturer to develop a perfectly balanced, natural vitamin formula and women's complete multivitamin.

Men's and Women's Complete Multivitamin

For starters, there is no such thing as a. good once-a-day formula. None. The formulas that are sold in the large chain stores are well marketed and advertised to deceive you into thinking that you've safely taken your vitamins when, in fact, all you did was swallow a synthetic chemical that is very poorly absorbed and used by your system.
You think you've done the right thing because the highly paid advertisers told you so, but your body knows differently. Your body takes the food that you eat and simply stores it as fat and cellulite while it waits for the vitamins that it needs to turn the food into energy for repair.
Doctor Young's multiple vitamin and women's formula provide you with the nutritional foundation to help your body repair, detoxify, and re-energize. If you can get only one formula, our multiple or Women's Complete is an absolute must have.

AntiOxi Protection

Even with the best diet, we are exposed to pollution and chemicals in our air and environment wherever we travel. Help prevent disease by providing your body with extra antioxidant protection. This will support your immune system and protect your body.

Stress Plex - B

To support our minds and nervous system and to help control blood sugar swings, this formula has been specially designed for busy, thinking men and women who need clear thoughts and concentration.

Weight Loss Energizer

This formula will help suppress your appetite so you can have better control of your eating and energy, especially if you've been using lots of caffeine, sports energy drinks, or soda pop. These are hazardous drinks to the body, and will have to stop if you are going to detoxify your body, balance your blood sugar, and regain your natural energy.

Thyroid Plus

For patients with a clinically low thyroid but whose blood tests are normal, this formula supports your thyroid to get back into the game.
It can help you:

  • loose weight
  • boost your metabolism
  • improve your skin, hair, and nails
  • warm up those cold hands and feet.

HOODIA PLUS

Dr. Young only uses tested HOODIA extracts for those patients needing additional help with weight loss. These extracts, when used in a balanced formula, can help to:

  • Strongly reduce your appetite
  • Lessen your cravings
  • Balance your blood sugar
  • Help make between meal snacks a thing of the past

Most of us cannot simply use willpower to balance our blood sugar. We need help, and Dr. Young has a formula that can save us money and time by eliminating our daily coffee and sugar runs.

How do I take my vitamins?

Ideally, you take your vitamins the same as the way you eat and drink: several times a day. Dr. Young realizes that you are busy and you need help, so our formulas are designed for a morning dose to get your day going on the right foot and evening dose to help you metabolize and repair.
Remember, there is no such thing as a once-a-day vitamin that is worth either your time or your money.
Dr. Young's vitamin formulas are designed for patients who are trying to eat a healthy diet and who are sincerely committed to improving their health and the sluggish toxicity that goes with years of poor eating and unhealthy habits.
