The woman working was very helpful and showed me how I could purchase them each separately or she found a bottle that contained just what I was looking for in one capsule. They worked great! I even went back to pick up a bottle for someone else I knew that came down with COVID. Service was friendly and efficient both times. We are fortunate to have such a great place in Yorkville!

I LOVE this new store! My favorite thing about it is that when you walk in it does NOT STINK like…read morefruitful yield!! The older lady that works there is SO helpful and knowledgeable about all the products and can help you with what ever you need. The frozen meals (like the Amy's brand) are more expensive here so that is a downfall, but for a small store I would expect things to be more than the big box stores. I called to ask a question about the toothpicks I know they carry because I bought them there before and the young girl that answered was no help- told me they did not carry that item(like I said I bought them there before so I knew they did) I just needed to know the flavor (cinnamon or teatree) so she was useless- but over all I really like this store and the items they carry. Would recommend it!!

Update: 12/18/22 The…read morevery next day, the franchise owner reached out to me after a back and forth email with the Store Manager. They reached out to try and resolve the matter, this was not requested by me, however they took it upon themselves to address the issue. I great appreciate the effort and speaks highly of their character. Again, I'm still frustrated with "GNC" and this issue, but appreciate franchise owner for reaching out to me on this. I've updated my review from 1 Star to 4 Star purely on the Franchise owner's actions. Original review below: Beware, this is NOT an GNC location which is part of "GNC". Only items purchased from this store, they will action on, meaning, and any purchases made online or other GNC locations they will not provide any help. They do not know the location of any GNC stores. I would take your business else where.

I'm not sure if it was the owner or an employee who was working when I went in today, but he gave me his full attention and was super knowledgeable. He asked what I was looking for and directed me to the exact product I'd need. I asked some specific follow-up questions and he gave me great insight into a niche health topic that not many people might know about. Also feels great to support local! Will definitely be back again!

I shopped at Life Springs quite a bit when I lived nearby…read more Since then I have moved quite a distance away and dont have a good health food store in my area, so I am forced to buy online. Today after putting in a good sized online order, I was curious to check how prices lined up with Life Spring. I still have some containers of supplements I bought when I was last in the area so I was able to make comparisons. TO MY SURPRISE, THE PRICES AT LIFE SPRING WERE EQUAL OR LESS THAN THE ONLINE SUPPLIERS THAT I THOUGHT WOULD HAVE BEEN CHEAPER! So, to anyone tempted to save money and buy online, forget it! You will do as good or better with Life Spring! Plus, you will be dealing with some real nice local people who deserve your business!

I stopped in because Family Health Center appeared to be a locally-owned vitamin shop. I try to…read moresupport local businesses when I can. The shop is less of a vitamin shop and more of a healthy living spot. The selection appears to extend well beyond supplements. I went here to refill on my daily supplement. The employee directed me towards the particular spot in the store, where only one brand was available. She appeared knowledgeable about the brand and manufacturing process. However, when I inquired further about the manufacturing standards and verifications, she was unable to answer. I only purchase supplements that have been verified for nutritional content, absorption, and safe manufacturing practices. There are two major laboratories that conduct independent testing. I inquired about both of these labs by name to the employee, but she was unaware of any verification labs that existed or that the supplements underwent testing. I am well aware that the FDA has little to no regulatory power over supplements, but independent testing is available for any brand to confirm that their product is genuine. Bottom line, the supplement line carried by Family Health has not been independently tested. I would not recommend purchasing from them. On the other hand, Family Health offers a wide array of health services and seminars for the new age medicine enthusiast. If you are into herbal remedies and non-traditional medicine, Family Health is right for you. If you just need some vitamins or supplements, find someplace else.

Adding new information: This business is unethical. My insurance company talked to them, and the…read morereason why they sent me the brand I didn't want it's because it's CHEAPER! The pharmacy would lose money if they send me what I requested; however, if that's the case, the pharmacy should communicate with my doctor's office from the very beginning not until the last minute when I reached out. Now my medicine will be delayed for more than 4 days. This business basically doesn't have ethics and only cares about money. Avoid this business if you could. This pharmacy sent me a substitute generic brand without my consent which is birth control. - if you are a female you know how each generic brand works differently. My gynecologist office places the prescription with this pharmacy so I don't know the details but I specifically said I needed Xulane patch, not Zafemy. The worst part is that there's a guy named Luis who's racist and rude. After I tell him my name which is a foreign name on the prescription, he had an attitude against me. He using inappropriate language like "I'm not repeating my name to you" "there's no further discussion" "I'm in charge." This guy cut me off a few times and never let me finish my desired solution and doesn't have a can-do attitude. All he did is "there's nothing I can do for you, is your doctor's fault" So ladies, avoid this racist place that substitutes your birth control without letting you know. And don't let a rude disrespectful man who is not even able to get pregame tell you all the birth controls are the same!! Ridiculous!
