Re:OT, bringing supplements from US to Canada

[Guest guest]

Have you tried www.spectrumsupplements.ca they ship from in Canada and I'm

pretty sure most of what you are looking for is there.

Other that that, where do you live in Canada?

I'm in BC.

I found carnitine there, not vit K or adrenal cortex extract.

I get pharmaceutical grade carntine from my environemental doc here in Edmonton.

Before that I found a vitamin store that had it but they carry it in the back

room for 'special' customers. You have to ask a store manager. They also sell

me DMAE.... I think that they are allowed to sell it but not carry it out

front.

Activated Charcoal cannot be sold in Canada any longer (other than through a

physician), period.... from what I understand.

Activated Charcoal is sold in BC - I picked some up the other day.

Carnitine is sold in BC with an Rx. I get it from my ND

Vit K is sold only with Vit D in it. Falls Pharmacy in WA has the K2.

ACE is sold by Thorne and can be bought at most Compounding

Pharmacies - Finlandia or Semperviva in Vancouver.

You can also get any of those from your local ND, if you have one.

If not there is a local ND in BC Dr. Anita Bratt that I know has

those. She works out of her home now in North Van 1-877-299-1110

www.drbratt.com

She is also a DAN! Dr.

When we order things from the US that we can't get here, we usually

do the following:

1. Get the Pharmacy or supplement store to put it into the mail box

and to say " sample " on the outside. They can mail the receipt/invoice

separately. A bonus is if they use a plain envelope.

2. We have an address in the States - just over the boarder

www.tsbshipping.com and we have it sent there and go pick up 1x per

month.

Hope that helps,

It turns out what I need to try is acetyl-l-carnitine, and that it is

very expensive.

I'll keep looking.

Before that I found a vitamin store that had it but they carry it in

the back room for 'special' customers. You have to ask a store

manager. They also sell me DMAE.... I think that they are allowed to

sell it but not carry it out front.

Just curious. Can a regular person mail the stuff across the border to

you, since they can't sell it (or don't) there, or can't ship to Canada?

Yup, I do it all the time.

The simpler the better.

My DAN!'s pharmacy in the US does this for me sometimes. She puts the

Rx into a small box and writes 'gift' or 'sample' or sometimes

nothing and put's it into the mailbox. She mails the receipt

separately and does not include the name of the pharmacy on the

return address. The mailman brings it with the mail.

As for L-carnitine

Also, we find that if you stuff any bottles with cotton so they don't

rattle around...it reduces suspicion of what's in the package.
