Top Reasons to Create Your Own Nutrient Formula

Nutritional compounding can be very helpful to get just the right formula.

Did you know that at Village Green Apothecary, you can have a custom nutritional formula made specifically for you? Our compounding lab has over 30 years of experience creating customized formulas, which include nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and herbs), and specialized prescription medications. And, we also make compounds for pets, too!

We passionately believe that each person deserves their own personalized plan for protecting and optimizing their health. We are committed to helping customers find the best solutions for their unique needs. That is why we carry such a wide selection of high-quality nutritional supplements and offer custom compounding, as well. If we don’t have exactly what you are looking for, we are happy to create it for you in our on-site laboratory.

If you are new to the idea of custom compounding, there are many ways it can benefit your health. For example, creating personalized formulas helps to ensure that you are getting the exact nutrients that you need. In addition, compounding can simplify one’s nutrient protocol, provide targeted support based on specialty lab test results, address specific nutrient deficiencies caused by taking certain medications, such as antacids, birth control pills, and steroids, or allow you to receive a blend of ingredients that may no longer be commercially available.

4 Reasons to Consider Custom Compounding

    Personalized Nutrition

      Everyone is unique and has different nutritional needs. One of the main benefits of custom nutrient compounding is that it allows you to create a tailored combination of nutrients in particular forms and dosages that are best for you. This allows you to get just the nutrients your body needs without excess levels of vitamins and minerals that may not be beneficial for you. And, we can make a formula in a delivery method of your choosing, such as powder, capsule, or liquid.

        High Quality Ingredients & Hypoallergenic

          The pharmaceutical grade ingredients used in our compounding formulas are rigorously tested to ensure that we provide customers with the highest quality raw materials, free of chemical contaminants. And, our custom formulas do not contain any additives, such as fillers, binders, dyes, preservatives, or possible allergens.

            Convenient & Flexible

              Our compounding pharmacy has the unique ability to combine the supplements that you are taking. So, rather than purchasing many bottles of different nutrients, we can make one formula that includes all of the nutrients that you need. This can make it more cost-effective and more convenient. And, having a personalized formula can enhance compliance by reducing the number of capsules needed daily and can also encourage consistency.

                Enhanced Absorption and Bioavailability

                  Not all supplements are created equal. Some may not be easily absorbed, which makes it difficult for your body to benefit from them. With custom nutrient compounding, the formula is designed to promote better absorption and bioavailability. By mixing the right ingredients in the right proportions, you can ensure maximum uptake and utilization of the nutrients.
