We are your one stop shop for all your practitioner only supplement needs!
What are Practitioner Only Supplements ?
Practitioner Only Supplements as the name suggests refers to those supplements which require a prescription from an accredited health professional. These types of medication are not available for over the counter sale and can only be purchased at health clinics, with a prescription from your Allied Healthcare Practitioner. The reason that these products require a prescription is that they are of a much higher quality and in often cases more concentrated dosage than over the counter medications. These products have undergone rigorous testing and clinical trials to ensure that they are both effective and safe.
Practitioner Only Supplements VS Over the Counter Medication
There are countless nutritional supplements on the market these days which can be purchased on-line, in the chemist, even in the grocery store. Many of these products are diluted with other ingredients, in order to keep costs down. Which means that the active ingredients have little to no effect. Therefore you would need to consume excess amounts of them to incur any health benefits. In contrast the practitioner only supplements we stock require only small doses to be highly effective. Another area in which over the counter products fall short is in their absoprtion. Due to the chemical structure of many of these sub-standard products, optimum absorption of key nutrients cannot be achieved, which means the nutrients pass through our system without any medicinal effect and essentially their consumption is wasted. All practitioner only products have been specifically formulated to maximise their absorption and further promote the uptake of all key ingredients.
