Big Mountain Pharmacy Launches a New Blog: Blogging the Drugs

One thing that has often been lacking from online Canadian pharmacies is information. Not only about the drugs on sale themselves, but also about illnesses and general news on the medical industry such as regulation and equipment.

That is what triggered Big Mountain Drugs to start their health information blog, which is now fully up and running on their website offering articles packed with information about common illnesses such as Alzheimer’s, erectile dysfunction (impotence) and acne. Not only that, they have also released articles giving useful information to help with particularly common issues. These include helping patients with poor eyesight by giving tips on how to identify medication safely, and giving family and friends of patients’ advice on how to tell the difference between dementia and depression.

Information like this is extremely valuable to patients, as they can learn more about the drugs that they are taking and the conditions that they are taking them for. The knowledge to patients increases safety as they can easily spot the symptoms of complex or potentially dangerous illnesses, and learn how to deal with the issues that come with many conditions. Blogging the Drugs from Big Mountain pharmacy, which can be found on their website, now lists many informative articles to help their customers. All of the information is free, and is written by medical professionals giving accurate and interesting information and facts.

One customer said: “Blogging the Drugs from Big Mountain pharmacy is extremely helpful and I’ve discovered a lot of new things about my illness that I didn’t know before, including information about the drugs that I am taking so that I can keep an eye out for side effects. It makes me feel much safer that I have more knowledge than I did before”.

Big Mountain Drugs commented “We wanted to add value to our customers by allowing them to make more informed decisions. Although they cannot buy most of the drugs without a prescription, it still gives them the opportunity to learn about the drugs that they are prescribed by their doctor so that they can speak with their doctor if they have any concerns. It also helps them to learn about their illnesses so that they can be aware of any issues such as symptoms of their conditions”.

One concern however, is that online Canadian pharmacies as of recent times, are no longer allowed to advertise on Google unless it is in their own country, which will mean that many people searching for information on drugs online will not be able to find the blog unless they live in Canada if they use Google to search for it.

You can join the blog on Facebook (bigmountaindrugs) and Twitter (bigmountaindrug), some of the most popular social networking sites so it is always very easy to connect and check out any new information that is issued by Big Mountain Drugs. They also post videos on Youtube and you can subscribe by RSS feed so that you get information in new articles as soon as they are posted online.

Attention: There has been a lot of recent articles talking about lab coats and transmitting bacteria via through lab coats. Most doctors hang on to their lab coats for ages until they finally have to throw it away. We recommend that you change your lab coat every six months. There has been a lot of talk about soil proof coats and treated fabrics, “Don’t be too quick to get on this band-wagon!” Studies have show that these clothing can not be autoclaved so be careful about their labeling in general.

Don’t spend a lot of money on scrubs and lab coats that won’t hold up to the test of time.

White Collar Uniforms was founded several years ago by a well known inventor and medical provider in the medical field. He wanted to design a men’s lab coat for men and women that could let them use their hands more and be more practical at the same time. Since then, he has consulted hundreds and thousands of his constituents and his final works have been published amongst his peers and medical friends. Doctors deserve better and that’s why White Collar Uniforms invented its sporty designer lab coats.

Crohn’s Disease Nutritional Intake Help Found in Vitamin Gum

Crohn’s disease help is not easy to find. That’s why the discovery of vitamingum is a newsworthy event for those afflicted. Because the disease affects the digestive tract, Crohn’s nutrition intake is a major concern. Sufferers often have little or no appetite due such pain, making it difficult for these individuals to intake and digest the vitamins and minerals needed.

vitamingum.jpg (300×200)

Edward Mugits, owner and developer of VitaBrew Coffee, contends that Vitamin gum is assisting his son with the needed Crohn’s nutrition intake. Mugits’ son has dealt with the disease for 20 years and according to Mugits he has never seen his son intake this level of nutrients and feel the difference he now enjoys. Chewing Vitamin Gum has not caused pain or suffering for Mugits’ son. As founder of VitaBrew Coffee, Mugits has over 1600 hours invested in Naturopathic studies. He is dedicated to research and development of healthy products and is always excited to share anything that will provide Crohn’s disease help.

The vitamin gum is readily available in stores across the nation; GNC, Walgreens, Express Mart, Five Below Stores, Follett Book Stores, Giant Eagle, Sheetz and Wilson Farms. Vitamin gum is available in three flavors: grape pomegranate, raspberry lemonade and peppermint ice. It is sugar free, offers fast absorption through the mucous lining and small intestine and only needs to be chewed for five to ten minutes to ensure release of the nutrients. Benefits include B vitamins, Vitamin D, Calcium and antioxidants.

Edward Mugits, owner and developer of VitaBrewcoffee.com Mugits is also the father of a son afflicted with Crohn’s disease and as such he understands the debilitation this disease can cause. Mugits is devoted to sharing whatever offers Crohn’s disease help. For his son, chewing vitamin gum has not caused any pain or suffering and is improving hit nutritional intake. Vitamin gum can help support the limited Crohn’s nutrition intake by providing antioxidants and vitamins that otherwise would be missed.

Sizewise Launches First-of-its-Kind Automated Chair-to-Stretcher Device for Safe Patient Handling and Hospital Transport

Sizewise, a growing and diversified medical equipment manufacturer, today announced the newest in its Shuttle Series of products — the industry’s most advanced and secure means for mobilizing patients in a hospital setting. The Shuttle A Seriesâ„¢ is built on the strength and design of its predecessor The Shuttle B Series, which serves as a bariatric transport device.

“We’ve dominated the market with the Shuttle B Series, the only product of its kind to support up to 1,000 lbs, and now we’re pleased to deliver on the demand we’ve heard to create the same Shuttle for more average-sized patients,” said Trever Frickey, chief operating officer at Sizewise.

The Sizewise Shuttle Series of products are designed to help caregivers with safe patient handling so both the patient and healthcare professional do not suffer costly or life-threatening injuries.

Uniquely, the Shuttle A Series has a tilt and recline function, along with an escalating height up or down. The seat has a three-layer foam insert for further comfort and weight distribution and leg supports elevate independently with retractable foot rests. The Shuttle A Series supports a weight capacity of 650 lbs and is the third in a line of Shuttle products – The Shuttle B Series™ and B Series LTC™ (a more economical model) are designed for the bariatric patient up to 1,000 lbs.

With an optional Power Drive, The Shuttle A Series can safely navigate smooth floors, thick carpet and uneven terrain in both the chair and stretcher position. With the ease of a feather-touch hand control, caregivers can propel patients at variable speeds up ramps and over door jambs. A unique center wheel design allows for easy maneuvering.

Zetathermide Proven to Generate Hi Levels of Far Infrared at Very Low Temperatures

The ZTG Group has completed it’s six year development cycle and independent 3rd party testing of a new material titled ZetathermideTM. Zetathermide has been proven effective in emitting high levels of Far-Infrared at very low temperatures.

The completion of Zetathermide’s development is extremely relevant to the fields of chiropractic care, physical therapy, massage, fitness as well as other fields associated with discomfort management and general and health and wellness.

Zetathermide allows for a patient or user to achieve many of the benefits of heat therapy without the discomfort or inconvenience of high temperature. Simply by placing this material directly on the skin, the body may respond as if the user had applied heat. It can be used 24 hours a day with no dangerous side effects other than an unlikely allergic reaction.

Zetathermide is remarkable in that it has been found to work as a cosmic “tuning fork” or converter of energy without the need for electricity or any other artificial input. It can be used in its purest state or as an additive to silicone, plastics, ceramics, wood, resins, paint or any other substance that transforms from a liquid to solid state.

Lloydspharmacy Reveals Five Star Holidaymakers Think They Are Too Posh To Die

According to new research* by Lloydspharmacy’s Online Travel Clinic, five star holidaymakers are needlessly risking their lives when visiting malaria hotspots in Africa, Asia and South America.

It is estimated that over 13.5 million** British travellers have stayed in four and five star resorts in malarial countries with over a quarter not protecting themselves against local diseases. In fact over three million Brits did not bother to check to see if the country they were visiting had a malaria risk.

Worryingly 32% of all Brits believe they are less at risk of catching malaria if they stay at a luxury resort. The Lloydspharmacy research also found that only 30% of people who visit malarial countries take anti-malarial medication for the duration of their trip. A substantial proportion also discontinued anti-malarial medication prematurely when they returned home. Recently Cheryl Cole contracted malaria following a trip to Tanzania – although she was reported to have taken anti-malarials during her trip, it is not known whether she continued taking these upon her return.

According to the NHS website approximately 1,500 travellers return to the UK with malaria every year. In 2008, there were 1,370 cases of malaria reported and six deaths in the UK.

“Mosquitoes have no qualms about checking into luxury resorts”, said Clare Kerr, Lloydspharmacy’s Head of Travel Health. “The belief that staying in five star accommodation somehow provides immunity against diseases like malaria is very dangerous.

“Most UK travellers who catch malaria either do not take any anti-malarial treatments or do not get the right pills for the part of the world they’re visiting. It is important to get health advice before going to an area where there is a risk of malaria or other diseases such as diphtheria, typhoid and hepatitis.”

Lloydspharmacy’s Online Travel Clinic aims to make it as convenient as possible for travellers to obtain the malaria pills they need. After a consultation, Lloydspharmacy’s online doctors can provide a private prescription and arrange delivery of the medicines by post.

Medelita Announces Conference Schedule for Second Half of 2010

Medelita®, maker of breakthrough performance men’s and women’s lab coats, today announced its conference and exhibit schedule for the second half of calendar year 2010. The company’s exhibit at medical conferences provides clinicians a chance to learn about modern advances in medical apparel. Many healthcare professionals unwittingly rely on the myth of the one-size-fits-all lab coat or scrubs, and are pleasantly surprised to learn that a more suitable alternative to ill-fitting unisex garments exists.

“We started Medelita to answer the need for quality medical apparel that, until now, has been a huge void in the industry,” said Lara Manchik, PA-C and founder of Medelita. “Today, only two years after founding the company, I am proud to announce that clinician response to our products is phenomenal. I am truly humbled by the accolades we continue to receive and know that we’ve redefined the way the industry perceives lab coats and scrubs.”

Made from 100 percent high denier cotton and designed specifically with a focus on fit and functionality, Medelita’s fluid resistant lab coats are treated with Advanced Dual Action Teflon® fabric protector, which allows fabric to repel and release stains. Tailored to fit the contours of the real human body, Medelita lab coats feature hidden inside pockets and finished inside seams. The High IQ® Easycare Plus helps fabric resist wrinkling and retain a soft, smooth, clean appearance. Technologically innovative, durable and fashionable, Medelita sets a new standard in professional lab coats.

Medelita Teams with American Association of Surgical Physician Assistants, Offers Member Discounts

Medelita®, maker of breakthrough performance women’s and men’s lab coats, is pleased to announce an affiliate partnership with the American Association of Surgical Physician Assistants (AASPA). The AASPA represents the 9,000 physician assistants, out of 68,000, that specialize in the area of surgery. As part of the affiliate relationship, Medelita is offering a 15% discount to AASPA members on all lab coats, medical scrubs and professional clogs.

“According to the AASPA, surgical PAs play an important role in relieving surgeons as the national surgical residency slots decline,” said Lara Manchik, PA-C and founder of Medelita. “The demand for surgery is growing and PAs are helping to fill the void as institutions produce fewer surgeons. This is a testament to the importance of physician assistants in the field of medicine and we are thrilled to support them. Let’s face it, surgical PAs work in messy environments and it’s difficult to project a professional image wearing ill-fitting lab coats or scrubs with stains. That’s why I started Medelita — to answer the unmet need for high quality, professional medical apparel that clinicians can be proud to wear.”

Made from 100 percent high denier cotton and designed specifically with a focus on fit and functionality, Medelita’s fluid resistant lab coats are treated with Advanced Dual Action Teflon® fabric protector, which allows fabric to repel and release stains. Tailored to fit the contours of the human body, Medelita lab coats feature hidden inside pockets and finished inside seams.

Medelita lab coats are hand-sewn in the U.S. using the highest quality fabrics, most advanced fabric treatments and feature designer touches such as inside seam finishing and contoured shaping for exceptional fit and comfort. Engineered for easy care, Medelita lab coats and scrubs can be machine-washed and emerge from the dryer with a crisp, clean and professional look. Dry cleaning can be used, though is not required.

Bill Gates Said The Next ‘Bill Gates’ May Come Out Of Healthcare

During a recent town hall style meeting at Columbia University, a female college student asked Bill Gates what industries he thought offered the greatest opportunities for college graduates. “What industry will produce the next ‘Bill Gates?’” she asked. Gates quickly responded, “Technology, energy, and healthcare.”

Bill Gates Said The Next 'Bill Gates' May Come Out Of Healthcare

For those who do not already possess industry experience however, it is hard for professionals to break into these fields. Companies simply don’t want to take a risk or they don’t have the time, people, or budgets to train.

HART Health takes a different track. As a franchisor of first aid, medical supplies, nonprescription pharmaceuticals, HART Health is in the business of training, developing, and supporting professionals to make a successful transition into the exploding healthcare field.

HART Health recently hired Ramesh Rao, a former Vice President of Blockbuster Video, as COO to help franchisees accelerate through the learning curve and achieve business success. “With HART Health, I see the opportunity to take a very successful business model and expand it on a national scale by leveraging talented individuals who desire transition into a more lucrative and high growth industry than where they currently are.”

Larry Shaw, HART Health, CEO echoed Rao, “Other companies often don’t hire or train talent from other industries. We are a franchise. If professionals are willing to learn, we are in business to teach.”

With the addition of black scrub pants and scrub tops, Medelita offers six colors of women’s scrubs: navy, café, iris, leaf and pool.

“Black was a color that had long been requested by our customers, and we are excited to introduce our clinician scrubs in black, to satisfy the demand,” said Lara Manchik, PA-C and founder of Medelita. “Medelita scrubs are a new paradigm for female clinicians, who, not long ago, were limited to wearing boxy, ill-fitting unisex scrubs. The fact that our scrubs are available in a range of colors and in traditional women’s sizing – it’s no wonder clinicians have embraced them so enthusiastically.”

Medelita women’s clinician scrub tops redefine medical scrubs. Gone is the boxy, shapeless decades-old unisex scrub set. Medelita women’s scrubs have managed to achieve the standard look of traditional unisex scrubs while incorporating innovative design features such as darting at the bust, tapering at the waist and hips and tailored sleeves in the scrub top. The clinician scrub pants feature subtle, slimming bootleg, contoured rise front to back, and flattering seam placement.

Impeccably hand sewn in the USA, Medelita’s tailored scrubs are made with a brushed, cotton and polyester blend (85 percent polyester/15 percent cotton) drirelease® FreshGuard fabric that keeps its wearer dry, comfortable and free of odors. These fabric treatments enable the scrubs to resist piling and fading. Women’s scrub tops are available in sizes 0 – 16 and scrub pants are available in sizes 00 – 14 petite, 0 – 16 regular, and 0 – 16 tall.

Nature’s Best Encourage Us To Get In Shake!

Nature’s Best, one of the UK’s leading direct suppliers of quality health products and vitamin supplements, have released a new Strawberry Protein Shake just in time for the summer season, and it is being hailed as their tastiest yet.

Nature's Best Encourage Us To Get In Shake!

Research shows that adults lost between 0.5 and 2% of their muscle each year once they reach the age of 40. Therefore, it is essential that you include enough muscle-boosting protein in your diet as you get older. The problem is however many over 50’s do not get their recommended daily allowance of protein. Combine this with the fact muscle deterioration coincides with less frequent exercise and a serious problem could be arising.

In response, Nature’s Best has launched a NEW Strawberry Protein Shake, an easy-to-mix power drink containing 19g of high quality whey protein per sachet.

As we grow older, it is increasingly difficult to ensure enough protein is in our diets, due to a number of factors, such as the cost of protein-rich foods (meat and fish), a decline in appetite, a decrease in the ability to absorb nutrients, a change in taste preference, as well as difficulty with chewing. A protein supplement is an easy way to ensure that these advised quantities are effectively met.

The shakes are Nature’s Best most delicious yet, flavoured with real strawberries and are gluten-free, preservative-free, aspartame-free and can be consumed cold or warm, with water or with milk. Whey is one of the highest quality proteins available and contains significant amounts of all important amino acids. Whey also has a high-absorption rate and is easy to digest.

Doctors Recommend the E-bed Memory Foam Mattress

E-bed has been making memory foam mattresses for 45 years, and along the way the company has collected more than a few customer testimonials from medical professionals. Doctors approve of and recommend the CoolTemp visco-elastic memory foam in the E-bed memory foam mattress. Visco-elastic memory foam was developed in the ’60s by NASA to provide orthopedic support to astronauts during take-off and re-entry. E-bed soon developed its CoolTemp visco-elastic memory foam, which cradles the body by becoming softer in areas made warm by the body’s pressure and firmer in cooler areas, where less pressure is being applied. Instead of endorsing a TempurPedic mattress, chiropractor Gordon J. Braun put his stamp of approval on the less-expensive E-bed with this testimonial:

“It is very important to have a good bed that gives you proper support of the spine. The E-bed mattress has the memory foam, which forms to the spine, producing great support and avoiding pressure on the nerves. Many patients ask me which bed to use, and I was never sure of what to recommend. I decided to try the E-bed sleep mattress, and within the first couple of nights I noticed the difference in my body. I had a great night’s sleep and woke up with no stiffness. It is truly a bed that I recommend to all my patients.”

Contributing to the great night’s sleep Braun got was the additional layer of foam beneath the CoolTemp visco-elastic memory foam. It helps provide the lumbar support that keeps the spine in its natural alignment. The E-bed memory foam mattress features high-quality coverings, as well, including 100 percent cotton, silk or cashmere. All coverings are treated to resist bacteria, mold, mildew, dust mites and odor-causing germs. The E-bed also features advanced edge support that extends mattress life and adds 30 percent more sleep surface. It was this feature that sold Dr. Diane Stewart, M.D., on the E-bed over the TempurPedic mattress, no matter how great a TempurPedic mattress discount was offered.
