Staying healthy or achieving a healthier lifestyle is a priority for many these days when a strong immunity can spell the difference between wellness and catching diseases. More Filipinos are turning to healthier foods and drinks, reducing meat intake, and instead of eating more vegetables and fruits, generally looking for ways to further boost their nutrition. While many can meet their nutrition needs by eating healthy, many still need that extra boost, and for this, they turn to supplements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over-the-counter (OTC) and popular food supplements are easily accessible and are therefore widely used. But while these medicines are generally effective, the efficacy level varies mainly because of users\u2019 different physical and health parameters. Users also react differently to mass-produced medicines, with some having allergic reactions such as skin rashes or breakouts. Many experience gastrointestinal difficulties after taking OTC drugs or worse endure some complications arising from interactions with other medicines. Others find the medicines they are taking rid the body of important nutrients by interfering with their absorption, excretion, or metabolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Recognizing the importance of boosting nutrition as one\u2019s first defense against illnesses, Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy (AIP) offers compounded medicines tailored to individual conditions and needs. A pioneer specialty compounding pharmacy and the first licensed compounding pharmacy in the country by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), AIP strives to provide Filipinos, through partnership with their doctor, an alternative means of improving their nutrition and health instead of relying solely on the one-size-fits-all approach of mass-produced medications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In light of Nutrition Month, AIP hopes to encourage more Filipinos to pursue a healthier lifestyle starting with better nutrition using compounded solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
