...a licensed custom pharmacy lab located in Aurora, IL - about 40 miles west of Chicago. We devote our skill to the custom preparation of medicines from raw ingredients and we have a passion for natural approaches. Sure, drugs help people recover from illness, but it's clearly more important to take care of the health we have so that disease doesn't get a toehold in the first place.
When "everyone else" demands drugs to lower cholesterol we ask why. When "most people" agree to swallow pills made from pregnant mare urine we think there's a better choice. Read our site, use it as a health resource, and subscribe to our newsletters. I write them and I only send it when there is something important I think you would want to know about.
 
In April, 2008, we will start a new return service for drugs that are no longer needed. It is only for local patrons who can drop off their unused drugs at our pharmacy. We will accept and log drugs that are returned. We will NOT be accepting controlled drugs. We will have the products properly disposed of by a specialist in medical waste management. Ask your local pharmacists to do the same. If pharmacists have questions they can contact me by clicking - HERE -.

Probiotics For Infants. A customer asked me what I knew about giving PROBIOTICS to an infant. While I usually claim that probiotics are good for "everyone" I really had not given any specific thought to what I really meant by "everyone". Does “everyone” include 2 moth old babies or not? It was time to do a little research. I found what I wanted and made my decision. MORE...

Is That Water Bottle Safe? It seems that every day someone is warning us about some danger or another. The scare stories about water seem to resurface every few months. Yes, I can't argue that certain containers might be responsible for adding harmful substances to our water. But, for heaven's sake, is it REALLY all that important?. MORE...

UV Is Good For You. I'm tired of winter. I want to see some sunshine. My body is craving vitamin D and I'm not afraid of the sun. Of course, too much of anything can be harmful, so you can't go nuts and sit in bright sunlight for hours on end. The sun is the source of all energy and life on our planet. Anyone who suggests that sunshine is dangerous isn't paying attention to reality. This might be shocking, but I have more. There's evidence that sunscreens can be harmful and tanning salons might even be healthy. MORE...
 

PERI-GUM® - I tried this product and now I use it every day.
What is Gum Disease? Although 3 out of 4 people over 35 have gum disease, most do not realize it because it often does not cause any noticeable symptoms in the mouth.  Infection of the gums can go on for years without someone knowing it.  The first signs may be tenderness when brushing, some swelling, blood on the toothbrush, and redness of the gums instead of a healthy pink color.

 Gingivitis (inflammation of the gums) is caused by plaque bacteria.  If plaque is not removed, it grows and causes pockets between the teeth and gums.  As the infection progresses the gums become more inflamed and bleed more.  This is called periodontitis and can cause loss of teeth.  The severity of periodontitis is measured by the depth of the pockets between the teeth and the gums.

 One of our customers told me about PERI-GUM® I placed an order and tried it myself before putting on the shelf - or offering it to our online customers. If you use and and are not delighted I'll refund your purchase price. Click HERE to read more.
