  • Though I do feel herbal supplements are beneficial in their own ways, people taking them should tell their healthcare professionals they are using them. Herbals are medications too, even though they are from a natural source. They have their own set of side effects and interactions with foods and other drugs (including other herbals!). Just make sure to keep your doctors and pharmacists informed about everything you take, and do your research before starting anything (prescription or OTC).

  • IN THE GREEK PHARMACY MEANS WITCHCRAFT

    MAYBE THAT'S WHY STATISTICALLY THE NUMBER ONE KILLER IS THE MEDICAL AND PHARMACY INDUSTRIES. REMEMBER DOCTORS DIS-EMPOWER YOUR CUSTOMERS THROUGH FEAR AND INTIMIDATION.
