Not i unfortunately.
Quality vitamin & nutritional supplements. I find this is indeed something terribly lacking in Korea.
Prices ( when you do find some good stuff - like ECHINEACEA, or St. John's Wort, Glucosomine etc ) tends to be out of this world.
You can bet i'll be bringing a good supply of "health" essentials back from the west when i make the trip again
Bon chance! |

Hi there,
In the overly pricey category, there is a GNC in Samsung Plaza at Seohyeon station. Go to the supermarket in the basement and you'll find it near the checkout counters.
Near Yatap Station close to the Cha Hospital (a real hospital, not a garage) you can find a Vitamin Shoppe (not sure about the spelling, been a while). Not sure about the prices there, though.
Costco offers glucosamine for what seemed a reasonable price as well as chewable Vitamin C tablets and multis (nonchewable). It's near Yangjae station, but pretty far if you're walking. Take the 9412 bus if you can get to it or transfer going north near Moran Station). Get off near the big flower market. Sorry, don't know where you're coming from )
Hope this helps.
