History Of PharmaFoods
PharmaFoods was set up in 1994 with one of Australia’s leading nutrition experts, Dr Robert Buist, as a co-founder. Over more than a decade at the helm of the company he has pioneered a range of nutritional supplements specifically designed to address the causes of clinical disorders, rather than merely the symptoms. During this time he has been the Director of the International Academy of Nutrition, while producing three best-selling books on nutrition and numerous scientific research papers. He is also a regular guest expert on radio and television shows across Australia.
It is to this breadth of knowledge that PharmaFoods owes its reputation for consistently providing clients with a range that is both innovative and clinically effective. Now that the company has been acquired by arguably the most prestigious name in the field of complementary medicine, BioCeuticals, the scope for continued research and development of superior nutritional supplements has been further enhanced. Dr Buist now heads the combined BioCeuticals/PharmaFoods Scientific Advisory Board—an international group comprised of some of the world’s most qualified experts in the field.*
With this newly acquired scientific backing, at a time when public awareness of the advantages of optimal nutrition has never been greater, the next logical step for PharmaFoods is to make its previous practitioner-only range available in pharmacies. Here the consumer can be advised by their pharmacist on the best complementary, or companion, PharmaFoods product for their condition—making the pharmacy a one-stop shop, not only for pharmaceutical advice but also for nutritional guidance.
