Nutritional Resources
At Kaye’s, we realize that maintaining good health takes more than a prescription. The body depends on a wide variety of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other compounds
to maintain normal functioning and assist in the prevention of disease. When the body does not receive an adequate supply of one or more of these nutrients, one’s health can be compromised in a number of ways. This nutritional depletion can occur in anyone- even in individuals who believe that they are eating a healthy, balanced diet. Fortunately, nutritional supplements can play significant roles in the maintenance and restoration of the body’s vital resources. The addition of supplements can therefore serve as a simple yet powerful catalyst to better health. Additionally, supplements can often act as complements to prescription medications and, in some cases, may serve as alternatives; thereby providing further options to those managing a particular medical condition.
Recognizing the importance of nutrition in the lives of our patients, our pharmacy staff has made a commitment to offering our patients a wide range of supplements, including vitamins, homeopathic herbs, probiotics, essential fats, and formulations designed to target specific health and wellness conditions. In addition to an extensive range of supplements, we also strive to offer products from a comprehensive array of quality sources, including some of the finest names in nutrition and complementary medicine such as Solgar, Twinlab, Boiron Laboratories, Homeolab, and
PhytoPharmica.
Our selection of Solgar and Twinlab products includes a broad collection of vitamins, herbal supplements, fuel formulations, and herbal teas while our Boiron and Homeolab products offer homeopathic single remedies and targeted combinations for arthritis, PMS, weight control, and more. Our products manufactured by PhytoPharmica and The Professional Series range from complete daily multiples, including a full complement of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, to solutions for individual needs, such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Additionally, we are pleased to offer our patients Barlean’s Flax Oil and capsules as well as products by Nordic Naturals, which can provide the body with a rich source of Omega-3 fatty acids. These fatty acids are an essential nutrient, yet have been identified as being severely deficient or completely absent in a noticeable percentage of Americans. We invite you to personally explore our complete line of supplements.
Unlike the assistance often found in large health food stores, our pharmacists’ training and experience as health care providers enable them to respond to patients’ individual needs and medical conditions. Many people often do not realize the full implications of the supplements they are taking, including the drug interactions their supplements may potentially have with prescriptions they are taking and the possible effects their supplements may have on medical conditions they may have, such as hypertension and diabetes. Our pharmacists, including
Conny Morasutti, B.S., R.Ph., C.C.N., who is a certified clinical nutritionist as well as a registered pharmacist, can discuss your individual needs and identify the supplements that will safely and effectively maximize your health and wellness. Conny is presently available for private consultation by appointment and will be introducing a number of additional professional services in the near future.
