Living in Michigan means we don't always get enough sunshine—and that means we might be missing out on Vitamin D! ☀️☁️

Vitamin D isn't just for strong bones; it supports your immune system and may even help with mood. Did you know that 22% of Americans have a moderate deficiency?

Check your meds: If you take corticosteroids or certain heart medications, they can affect how your body absorbs Vitamin D.

Don't guess with your health. Ask our pharmacists which supplement is right for you (D2 vs. D3!) and keep your glow all year round.

Did you know your job routine might affect your long-term health? 🚌🏢

A new study from the Barcelona Institute of Global Health suggests that high-contact jobs and commuting on public transport can increase the risk of Long COVID.

We know work doesn't stop, but you can still protect yourself! Simple steps like handwashing, wearing a mask in crowded spaces, and keeping up with vaccinations make a huge difference.

Need OTC Meds, vaccines, or a booster? We’ve got you covered.

Staring at the cold and flu aisle can feel overwhelming. Congestion? Dry cough? Wet cough? Fever? 🤧🤒

You don't have to guess! Whether it's choosing between Robitussin for chest congestion or Mucinex for multi-symptom relief, our team is here to translate the labels for you.

Safety Tip: Many multi-symptom cold meds contain Acetaminophen (Tylenol). If you take them plus a separate pain reliever, you could be taking too much. Always ask us first!

Stop by Binson's today—we’ll get you the right relief so you can get back to feeling like yourself.

Still feeling exhausted long after recovering from COVID-19? You aren’t alone, and it might not just be "fatigue"—it could be your sleep. 🛌💤
New research shows that sleep apnea, specifically during the REM cycle, is significantly more common in people after a COVID infection. This "hidden" sleep issue can lead to brain fog, mood changes, and exhaustion that coffee just can't fix.
If you are struggling to get back to 100%, come chat with our pharmacists. We can help you understand the signs and point you toward the right resources in Flint to get your sleep back on track.
