Physician Formulas questions and emails
Q. I was considering buying some health food supplements at Physician Formulas, and I have a question. I learned that one should look for the term “ pharmaceutical grade ” when he buys such products. However, I did not find it in the descriptions of the products I was interested in at Physician Formulas. Does it mean that their quality does not meet the standard of “pharmaceutical grade”? It might be a naïve question, and I am sorry for bothering you with such a question.
   A. The term pharmaceutical grade only applies to a select few supplements such as the amino acid tryptophan and a few others. There is no such pharmaceutical grade terminology with herbs and most other supplements. Therefore, if you read on a website that their herbal products are pharmaceutical grade, you may question their honesty since herbs are not described in that manner.

Q. I have been very satisfied with the Physician Formula products particularly Eyesight Rx and MultiVit Rx. Keep up the good work. I tell my friends about how good the Physician Formulas service is, the phone reps are excellent.

Q. I noticed that Physician Formulas products say certified on them. I wondered who certifies the strength and purity and lack of heavy metals in your products.
   The Physician Formulas products are made a NHK Laboratories which is independent from us. This lab is regularly evaluated by the FDA to make sure all ingredients and the manufacturing processes are within FDA guidelines.

Q. I think very highly and my family about Physician Formulas products. I am about to try the mind power but my husband and son-in-law love 5HTP and I love the Joint Power RX and Multi vitamin. My husband has ADHD and my son-in-law has Bipolar and they both find 5 HTP fantastic for their brain.

Q. Are products on the Physician Formulas website organic?
   A. Physician Formulas has hundreds of products from dozen or more companies. Most of the herbs are not organic, and it is difficult to find a whole line of products that are organic. Most herbs supplied by the major raw material suppliers are not organic, however, unlike food, the amounts of herbs ingested are often less than 1 mg which is practically insignificant when compared to the kilograms of food eaten.

Q. Does Physician Formulas have a distributor in Costa Rica?
   A. They ship to Costa Rica, but they don't have a distributor in Costa Rica.

Q. Dr. Ray Sahelian's supplements are stated as being 'high quality' but I notice other supplements are sold on Physician Formulas web site, not just the "Rx" brand. One such example is 'Source Naturals'. There are others. Are all these other brands high quality. I have heard of Source Naturals and thought it was just one of those mediocre brands on the market, nothing outstanding.
   A. Physician Formulas carries products from many companies. Dr. Sahelian has formulated about 30 products for Physician Formulas. Since the web site sells about 300 products, not all of them are formulated by Dr. Sahelian. Source Naturals is a respectable company.

Q. I would like to know just how safe is tryptophan product sold on the Physician Formulas web site concerning contaminents ex. many years ago they banned this product, does your company make sure that it.s pharmacutical grade according to U.S.A. standards in order to insure that it's not a bad batch. I have been getting my product from Dr's Best what would be the difference of your product and theirs.
   A. If you visit this Tryptophan page you will see there are links to the HPLC test and the Certificate of Analysis which confirm the purity. Physician Formulas does not test the quality of other tryptophan products from other companies so we don't know anything about the Doctor's best tryptophan product.

Q. I know that vitamins supplements that are USP verified which contain the USP symbol have been tested to make sure that they disintegrate in the body and label are true and accurate. How would I know if Physician Formulas vitamins supplements are? What does a certificate of analysis display? Are your vitamins supplements distilled? Are the harmful ingredients (pesticides, etc...) removed?
   A. Physician Formulas supplements are manufactured by a GMP certified facility called NHK labs in Santa Fe Springs, CA and this facility is FDA evaluated every few months to pass industry standards. Furthermore, Dr. Sahelian, a product developer at Physician Formulas, reviews the certificates of analysis to make sure the ingredients are of high standards. USP is an independent organization and charge a fee for testing. USP is not a governmental organization and companies do not have to have a USP label on their product.

Q. Q.  I would like to ask the Physician Formulas staff to address the following questions please. I have noticed that the product Passion RX is listed as only available to purchase through Physician Formulas on line. I noticed this product for continuous sale on www.ebay.com. The seller of this product guarantees it is authentic. Do they have permission from Physician Formulas to act as an authorised dealer or representative of your product? If not are they doing so illegally? Is their a way for the consumer to determine if it is authentic? Could the Passion RX being sold on Ebay be authentic or is it in all probability an imitation product?
   A. Yes, Club Natural sells Passion Rx on eBay and it is authentic.

Q. I am vegan and there are many Physician Formulas products that I cannot take due to the fact that they are made with gelatin capsules. I am particularly interested in the Mind Power Rx. Is there a reason why some of Physician Formulas products are not made with veggie caps?
   A. Thank you for your email. If you visit Vegetarian Supplements. Dr. Ray Sahelian has also formulated Veg-Rx, the missing nutrients. Unfortunately Mind Power Rx is in a gelatin capsule, but many people open the capsules and just use the contents. The capsules can be easily opened by pulling on each side and dropping the contents in water or juice. Only a very small percentage of users are vegan, and vegetarian capsules usually add a large cost to the bottles which makes the majority of people less willing to pay for the higher cost. And since the capsule can be easily opened, that give an option to vegans and vegetarians.

Q. I want to export Physician Formulas products overseas such as Passion Rx. I will send your stuff to some importer in India or Maldives. That importer will sell to the end user. Can you sell to me in large quantities?
      A. Yes, PF can sell at wholesale in large quantities. If you can ship the product overseas, then the stores can put the product on the shelf and the consumer can buy it. PF can sell you the products at wholesale which is 50 percent off the discounted price listed on the web Physicians Formula web site. If you buy in larger quantities then higher discounts can be given.

Q. Does Physician Formulas carry supplements that help reduce appetite?
   A. Herbs that may reduce appetite include green tea extract and hoodia. You can purchase Green Tea Extract and Hoodia Extract at Physician Formulas website.
