Anti-Aging Serums and Moisture Creams formulated by Compounding Pharmacists at Central Pharmacy & Compounding Lab!

Even if you have great genetics on your side,  there are various factors which can accelerate aging.

Here are just a few:

  • Environmental exposures
  • Poor dietary habits
  • Smoking
  • Ultraviolet Exposure
  • Harsh skin-care products
  • Stress
  • Acne and Hormonal Imbalances

All of the above factors DECREASE collagen in the skin and they INCREASE inflammation in the body which ends up causing wrinkles in the skin.

Collagen gives skin it’s softness and resiliency. Once it’s damaged these molecules become stiff and inflexible causing skin to look “old”.

The importance of regular vet exams for your pet – a tragic story…

Posted on August 17, 2011 by

Harry died of kidney failure at age 12

I adopted Harry 5 years ago from a rescue shelter. He was a healthy, playful, adorable cat…an “indoor cat” with a sweet personality. He’d been vaccinated at the shelter, tested negative for HIV and Leukemia….ate only cat food….he seemed healthy for 5 years.

I never imagined that he had Chronic Renal Disease (kidney disease) and it was silently progressing as the days passed.  Almost 80% of cats die of this disease which, if detected early is not cureable, but adjustments in diet and fluids can prolong the cats life and keep it comfortable.

By the time symptoms show themselves (like vomiting, excessive thirst, no appetite and weight loss) it is often too late to save the kidneys and the cat is doomed.

I learned the hard way to be diligent about taking your pet to a vet to get examined annually.

Oprah clears the confusion about Compounding Pharmacies

Posted on September 9, 2010 by

Oprah’s website has some good information on Compounding Pharmacies and Bio-Identicals.

from Oprah.com:

Still confused about compounding pharmacies? Dr. Oz travels to Central Pharmacy in Santa Monica, California, to see how they differ from traditional pharmacies. For the past 15 years, Sharon Steen, the owner, has been in the business of bioidenticals, her pharmacy’s specialty.

“We do regular, prescription-type medicine, but what we do mostly now is prescription compounding, which is making our own prescription into different forms such as creams, capsules, suppositories and the like,” Sharon says. “We do that here in our compounding lab.

New hormone cream base with Organic Jojoba Oil! It’s better than ever!

Posted on May 12, 2010 by

What is jojoba oil anyway?

Jojoba (pronounced ho-HO-ba) is a botanical extract of the seed of the jojoba tree (Simmondsia chinenis). What’s interesting about it is that it isn’t actually an oil, but rather what they call a wax ester. Why do we care? Because out of all of the compounds in nature, this wax ester is the most similar to human skin oil (sebum). It is theorized that applying jojoba to the skin can “trick” the skin into thinking it is producing enough oil, thus balancing oil production. The bottom line for us is that jojoba oil is non-comedogenic so we can use it without fear.

Benefits of jojoba oil

  • Provides all day moisturization – jojoba oil doesn’t evaporate like water based moisturizers can.
  • It is theorized, but not yet proven, that because jojoba oil is so similar to human skin oil, it can “trick” the skin into thinking it has produced enough oil and thus balance oil production.
  • Very stable – jojoba oil does not become rancid or lose antioxidants even after long periods of storage.
  • Spreads well and absorbs well.
  • The organic variety is free of pesticides, GMOs, and is sustainably farmed.
