May 2012 Women’s <strong>Health</strong> – vitamins, supplements and minerals<br />
A commonly asked question is, “what kinds of health products<br />
should a woman use every day for optimum wellness?” While<br />
vitamins, minerals and supplements are no substitute for<br />
medicines or medical care, they can still play a major role in<br />
many women’s health issues.<br />
Women typically diet, which may lead to gaps in their<br />
nutritional balance. Most experts will recommend food as<br />
the best source of vitamins because the body may use<br />
food-sourced vitamins and minerals more efficiently<br />
than other supplements. Women are the main<br />
consumer and purchaser of vitamins for households<br />
consuming vitamins, minerals and supplements.<br />
Women’s needs vary depending on their age,<br />
or whether they are pregnant, nursing, or<br />
menopausal.<br />
A woman typically needs 1,000 to 1,500 mg. of<br />
calcium daily. This can be done through dairy products,<br />
preferably fat-free, drinking pure orange juice fortified with<br />
calcium, or by taking supplements. As women age, their<br />
bone density decreases and this leads to osteoporosis.<br />
Calcium helps to fortify the bones.<br />
Vitamin D enables a woman’s body to use calcium. As a<br />
woman ages this ability decreases which leads to vitamin<br />
D deficiencies. Natural sunlight is a great source of vitamin<br />
D; however, we have learned excessive exposure<br />
to the sun’s rays will damage the skin. A woman<br />
over 50 requires 400 IU daily of vitamin D and a<br />
woman over 70 requires 600 IU daily of vitamin D.<br />
Young women need iron in their system to<br />
defend against anemia. Good food sources<br />
include meats, poultry, beans, eggs and tofu.<br />
Please note to include foods rich in vitamin C<br />
along with iron, because vitamin C helps with iron absorption.<br />
Multiple vitamins for women over 50 usually do not include iron.<br />
Supplements that support cell health, such as Beta-carotenes,<br />
or other antioxidants, help defend a woman’s body against cell<br />
damage. A woman needs to include in her diet foods rich in<br />
COMPLETELY UP FRONT<br />
antioxidants like carrots, apricots, papaya,<br />
cantaloupe, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and<br />
mangoes. Think orange or deep yellow. If<br />
a woman is not getting enough of these<br />
foods in her daily diet, then a supplement<br />
is the answer to her needs.<br />
Folic acid, vitamins B6 and B12 are all<br />
important for women’s health. Childbearing<br />
or nursing women need folic acid<br />
to help ensure healthy children. Foods<br />
Sheila Weiss<br />
rich in folic acid are orange juice, beans,<br />
Category Manager<br />
and green vegetables. Vitamin B12, like<br />
vitamin D, is not processed as well by older<br />
women. This, along with<br />
vitamin B6, is very important as women age.<br />
Vitamin B6 helps with red-blood formulation<br />
and B12 helps with nerve cell and red-blood<br />
cell development. This process slows down as<br />
a woman ages, so to ensure these beneficial<br />
processes, a supplement is encouraged.<br />
Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown<br />
to act like a natural anti-inflammatory<br />
substance in the body. It is also believed<br />
they may help to promote a healthy<br />
heart. As estrogen declines with age,<br />
a woman’s heart health becomes<br />
a greater concern. Fatty fish, like<br />
salmon and tuna, is a great source<br />
of omega-3. Taking fish oil capsules<br />
is an excellent way to make sure a<br />
woman gets what is required of these<br />
important fats.<br />
It is important to ensure, when buying<br />
vitamins, minerals and supplements,<br />
that the product is made by a Good<br />
Manufacturing Compliance (GMP)<br />
compliant company. Check to see if the<br />
label is United States Pharmacopeia (USP),<br />
or Dietary Supplement Verification Program<br />
(DSVP) approved. Also, only buy standardized<br />
extracts. This will ensure a woman is getting<br />
true potency of the vitamins and herbs.<br />
Experts agree it is important to “supplement”<br />
your daily needs. Vitamins, minerals and<br />
supplements are a good way to fill in the gaps<br />
that a daily diet does not provide.<br />

Emphasizing women’s health<br />
Women’s specific health concerns are addressed by a growing<br />
number of products that include supplements, personal<br />
diagnostics, and feminine care products. To understand<br />
women’s health and take advantage of sales opportunities,<br />
knowledge of women’s care concerns and product trends<br />
is crucial.<br />
Women are more prone to osteoporosis, depression, and<br />
age-related macular degeneration, as well as autoimmune<br />
diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.<br />
Osteoporosis, which decreases bone mass and increases<br />
susceptibility to fractures, affects approximately eight million<br />
American women.¹<br />
Heart disease, another condition that affects large numbers<br />
of women, has been the overall deadliest disease in the<br />
U.S. since 1900, according to the National Center for <strong>Health</strong><br />
Statistics.² In women alone, it was responsible for over<br />
25 percent of deaths in 2007.³ Conditions such as high<br />
cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity put<br />
women at a higher risk for heart disease. A large portion of<br />
women’s health products are aimed at prevention and<br />
control of these conditions which affect women of various<br />
age groups.<br />
Who shops the category?<br />
The females who shop Women’s <strong>Health</strong> can be divided into<br />
three groups based on their distinctly different needs:<br />
women of child-bearing age, those who are perimenopausal<br />
(the transition period leading up to menopause), and<br />
menopausal women.<br />

Arthritis – a cross-category condition<br />
Nearly 40 million Americans are living with arthritis, an<br />
inflammation of joints that leads to pain, stiffness, swelling,<br />
and tenderness. Those experiencing the condition often<br />
have trouble with activity, and therefore are more likely<br />
to experience other health problems, such as high blood<br />
pressure or high cholesterol. They spend over 50 billion dollars<br />
a year on everything from doctor visits and nursing home care<br />
to medications and over-the-counter (OTC) products.<br />
Although there are more than 100 types of arthritis, the two<br />
main ones are osteoarthritis (the breakdown of cartilage<br />
in the body) and rheumatoid arthritis (the inflammation of<br />
an overactive immune system). Rheumatologists are the<br />
most likely medical professionals to diagnose arthritis and<br />
recommend treatment, which can include prescription or<br />
OTC anti-inflammatories, braces or physical therapy. However,<br />
general practitioners and physical therapists may also<br />
recommend an OTC relief product to their patients. Therefore,<br />
promoting your services through local doctors and physical<br />
therapists may be a way to garner more arthritis shoppers for<br />
your pharmacy.<br />
Who shops for arthritis treatment products?<br />
First and foremost, these products are shopped by arthritis<br />
sufferers. However, these shoppers may be both diagnosed<br />
and undiagnosed. American women account for almost<br />
60 percent of the arthritis sufferers in this country, and while<br />
arthritis is often thought of as a disease of older people, those<br />
under the age of 65 represent more than half of this group.<br />
In the United States, over a quarter million children have<br />
arthritis, which means at least a quarter million parents are<br />
shopping for products that provide relief for their children.<br />
Arthritis products are also purchased by the caregivers of<br />
older adults with the affliction, especially those who are<br />
homebound.<br />
How do they shop?<br />
Most stores do not have a specific section dedicated to<br />
arthritis products. Shoppers can find arthritis products<br />
throughout the store in categories such as Pain Relief, <strong>Health</strong><br />
Supports and Vitamins and Dietary Supplements.<br />
If a shopper is looking for immediate relief from their pain,<br />
they first consider the location, such as a swollen hand or<br />
achy knee joint and then look for the form they desire. The<br />
form can be an internal or external pain relief product, a<br />
brace or a splint for their sore joint. Alternately, preventive<br />
products such as joint supplements will be sought out in the<br />
Vitamins and Dietary Supplements aisle in a similar fashion<br />
by first considering need, then form.<br />
The categories – a closer look<br />
Pain Relief is the go-to category for shoppers looking to<br />
ease arthritis symptoms in themselves or their loved ones.<br />
COMPLETELY UP FRONT<br />
Keep a well-stocked<br />
Pain Relief aisle<br />
including aspirin,<br />
acetaminophen<br />
products (a good<br />
option for those<br />
who cannot<br />
tolerate aspirin) and<br />
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which reduce<br />
inflammation and joint pain. Also include external pain<br />
relievers in your selection, which provide instant relief to sore<br />
and stiff joints. Many of these are available in odorless gel or<br />
cream forms that are easy to use and are preferred by many of<br />
your customers.<br />
Your <strong>Health</strong> Supports section offers you another opportunity<br />
to increase your store sales. Doctors and physical therapists<br />
often recommend a brace or support to ease their patients’<br />
arthritis symptoms. Be sure you carry the many types of<br />
orthopedic supports, including ankle, knee, wrist, hand, neck<br />
and back braces. These higher priced items deliver a high<br />
margin and will help generate profit for your store.<br />
It’s also important to maintain a well-supplied Vitamins<br />
and Dietary Supplements section in your store. Point out to<br />
arthritis shoppers the importance of taking a multivitamin.<br />
Arthritis shoppers seek products such as glucosamine<br />
chondroitin, which helps rebuild cartilage and lubricate<br />
joints. These specialty supplements will draw more traffic to<br />
this section and increase your overall Vitamin and Dietary<br />
Supplements category and store sales.<br />
Your to-do list: action at the shelf<br />
1. Create a section or end cap in a high traffic area of your store<br />
that highlights interrelated disease states such as arthritis and<br />
heart health. Include top sellers such as the items listed on<br />
page 4. Since arthritis is a non-curable disease, sufferers will be<br />
in your store on a consistent basis to fill their needs.<br />
2. Use at-shelf signage to improve wayfinding across<br />
categories for people seeking arthritis products.<br />
3. Consider hosting an arthritis event two or three times a year<br />
where arthritis patients and their caregivers can learn about<br />
local advocacy organizations and programs and also take a<br />
tour of the aisles in your store that contain arthritis treatment<br />
and management options.<br />
4. Make a note of all of the arthritis-related Never Outs® items<br />
that are merchandised in the various sections in your store,<br />
and make sure you have ample inventory on hand to meet<br />
the high consumer take-away on these best-selling items.<br />

Capitalize on the sales growth of the deodorants category<br />
The Deodorants category experienced 4.1 percent growth in<br />
dollar sales in 20111 . The trend toward growth in gender-specific<br />
deodorants continues — female and male product segments are up<br />
3.4 percent and 6.2 percent respectively, while the unisex segment<br />
declined at 5.3 percent. Growth also has been driven by trade-ups<br />
to premium products as well as the expansion of consumer use of<br />
items such as deodorant body sprays and mists.<br />
According to Hamacher Resource Group’s exclusive wholesale<br />
withdrawal data for the 52 weeks ending September 30, 2011,<br />
the breakdown for the type of deodorant products sold is male<br />
deodorants 46 percent, female deodorants 43 percent and unisex<br />
deodorants 11 percent.<br />
Where to position the category<br />
Position your Deodorants section adjacent to Shaving & Men’s<br />
Grooming because consumers are likely to shop both categories<br />
in the same trip. This logical adjacency will increase impulse sales<br />
between the two categories.<br />
Your to-do list: action at the shelf<br />
1. Establish separate sections for male, female and unisex<br />
deodorants since purchase decisions are so different between them.<br />
Place signage identifying each section to stimulate sales.<br />
Advances in technology fuel changes and growth in the Personal<br />
Diagnostics category. The draw of the category lies in money and<br />
time savings, as well as reducing stress for the consumer. According<br />
to SymphonyIRI Group, sales for kits for diagnosing hypertension and<br />
managing the efficacy of blood pressure medications are up<br />
5.2 percent in the 52 weeks ending November 27, 2011. Staying<br />
informed of changing technologies and new personal diagnostic<br />
products is important, as patients depend on your knowledge to reap<br />
the benefits of at-home testing.<br />
Who shops the category?<br />
Consumers use personal diagnostic products to monitor conditions<br />
such as diabetes or hypertension regularly for prevention or for<br />
reducing their effects.<br />
People concerned that they have a specific condition use tests to<br />
determine if they need physician assistance. Tests for conditions<br />
such as high cholesterol and colon disease can lead consumers to<br />
make lifestyle changes to help decrease their risk for the disease.<br />
Drug- or genetic-testing shoppers look to determine genetic<br />
links by a paternity test or for the presence of a particular drug.<br />
Caregivers and parents are also key shoppers in this category.<br />
Where to position the category<br />
This category should be positioned near the pharmacy as these<br />
products often require pharmacist consultation for accurate use<br />
and results. Near-pharmacy placement can also help increase sales<br />
in the Patient Aids for Daily Living section as customers pick up<br />

Changes coming to pre-show ordering<br />
The <strong>Cardinal</strong> <strong>Health</strong> Retail Business Conference (RBC) is the<br />
most important event on the Consumer <strong>Health</strong> department<br />
calendar. It is the biggest and best opportunity to meet with<br />
customers, showcase new solutions, and generate a few<br />
orders in the process.<br />
In the past, the ordering process has been handled<br />
exclusively at-show or through the RBC Catalog. This year, we<br />
are modifying the process somewhat to allow our customers<br />
to more easily take advantage of pre-show specials. This<br />
year, for the months of June and July, customers will be<br />
able to order open stock specials using Order Express or<br />
cardinalhealth.com (or whatever system you use on a dayto-day<br />
basis). Orders will not have to be processed as catalog<br />
orders or by sending faxes through the distribution center.<br />
The pre-show specials available in June and July will<br />
approximately mirror the RBC catalog offering, but the<br />
savings will be immediate: the discounts will be off-invoice,<br />
rather than paid as a rebate/credit. We are still printing<br />
a catalog, which will be distributed in May, because we<br />
know that many customers prefer to “work up an order”<br />
before going to RBC. Basic rule of thumb: If you want the<br />
product now, before the show, place your order through<br />
cardinalhealth.com or Order Express; if it is product that you<br />
won’t need before August or September, place your order at<br />
the show or by using the order forms in the RBC catalog.<br />
Displays, clip-strips, some special packs and some of the<br />
diabetes-related products are not available until after RBC.<br />

We aggregate the orders for these products and deliver<br />
them in August/September. These displays and special packs<br />
will not be available in June or July. That has been true for<br />
prior years, as well.<br />
Pre-show specials will be identified in cardinalhealth.com<br />
and Order Express with the contract group code: PRE RBC.<br />
Literally thousands of products will be made available<br />
at discounted, off-invoice savings during the pre-show<br />
timeframe. Product ordered through the RBC catalog or<br />
at RBC will be delivered in August or September, and will<br />
be subject to December dating (as in years past) with the<br />
savings passed on to you in the form of a rebate/credit paid<br />
in January.<br />
We are looking forward to another record-breaking RBC!<br />
And we hope that you will take full advantage of the Pre-RBC<br />
specials that will be available for the months of June and July.<br />

Consumer <strong>Health</strong> retail pricing<br />
The more you know…<br />
The focus of this issue will be on the tiered retail pricing<br />
strategy. This is the newest retail strategy in the<br />
<strong>Cardinal</strong> <strong>Health</strong> retail pricing offerings. If you want the<br />
flexibility to customize your retail pricing by targeting<br />
specific costs, then this is the strategy for you! Tiered retail<br />
pricing allows you to group your products by cost and then<br />
apply a specific markup or fixed retail to all items in that cost<br />
range regardless of category. There are two parts to utilizing<br />
this strategy; you must first determine your beginning and<br />
The examples below show the flexibility of tiered retail pricing.<br />
The first example shows how you can customize the retail pricing by grouping costs<br />
together and applying the same retail to those cost range costs.<br />
For items in particular cost ranges<br />
Begin range End range Customer cost<br />
$ - $ 2.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 2.01 $ 5.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 5.01 $ 8.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
The second example shows how grouping products by cost ranges, a markup<br />
percentage can then be applied to all products in the specific cost range.<br />
For items in particular cost ranges<br />
Begin End Customer<br />
range range cost<br />
$ 0.00 $ 2.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 2.01 $ 5.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 5.01 $ 8.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 8.01 $ 14.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />
$ 14.01 $ 1000.00 Customer Normal Acquisition<br />

ending cost ranges and secondly whether you want to have<br />
fixed retails or apply a markup percentage.<br />
Contact your sales consultant for an in depth discussion of<br />
how this retail pricing option can make a positive impact on<br />
your store’s retail pricing strategy. Having these discussions<br />
will allow you to make informed choices that are best suited<br />
for your business needs.<br />

Arthritis and Leader® Brand products available<br />
Osteoarthritis is a chronic condition characterized by<br />
the breakdown of the joint’s cartilage. As the body ages,<br />
cartilage deteriorates and tendons and ligaments stretch,<br />
which causes the bones to rub against each other, resulting<br />
in stiffness, pain and loss of joint movement.<br />
Osteoarthritis, as the most common type of arthritis,<br />
occurs in the weight bearing joints of the hips, knees,<br />
and spine. Among the over 100 different types of arthritis<br />
conditions, osteoarthritis affects over 20 million people in<br />
the United States.<br />
Causes<br />
Primary osteoarthritis is mostly related to aging. As we age,<br />
the water content of the cartilage increases, and the protein<br />
makeup of cartilage degenerates. Constant use of the worn<br />
joints over the years can irritate and inflame the cartilage,<br />
causing joint pain and swelling.<br />
Symptoms<br />
Signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis include:<br />
• Pain. Your joint may hurt during or after movement. This is<br />
the most common symptom.<br />
• Tenderness. Your joint may feel tender when you apply light<br />
pressure to it.<br />
• Stiffness. Joint stiffness may be most noticeable when you<br />
wake up in the morning or after a period of inactivity.<br />
• Loss of flexibility. Loss of full range of movement.<br />
• Grating sensation. You may hear or feel a grating sensation<br />
when you use the joint.<br />
Diagnosis<br />
A physical exam can show:<br />
• Joint movement may cause a cracking (grating) sound<br />
• Joint swelling (bones around the joints may feel larger<br />
than normal)<br />
• Limited range of motion<br />
• Tenderness when the joint is pressed<br />
• Normal movement is often painful<br />
Treatment<br />
The goals of treatment are to:<br />
• Increase the strength of the joints<br />
• Maintain or improve joint movement<br />
• Reduce the disabling effects of the disease<br />
• Relieve pain<br />
COMPLETELY UP FRONT<br />
Supplements can help to relieve the symptoms of arthritis.<br />
Glucosamine and chondroitin are part of normal cartilage.<br />
Cartilage acts as a cushion between the bones in a joint<br />
Glucosamine and chondroitin are available in tablet, capsule,<br />
powder, or liquid form and can be taken in combination<br />
with each other or in combination with other dietary<br />
supplements. Glucosamine may be taken separately as a<br />
dietary supplement for joints. Leader® Brand Glucosamine/<br />
Chondroitin products are manufactured in a cGMP, FDA<br />
licensed state-of-the-art facility and produced to the highest<br />
quality standards. Leader® Brand quality is equal to or<br />
better than the national brand. Leader® Brand will provide<br />
your customers a significant savings to the national brand<br />
glucosamine chondroitin.<br />
It appears that glucosamine and chondroitin, alone or<br />
together, are safe and have few side effects.<br />
Do not recommend to you customers if they are allergic to<br />
shellfish. Some glucosamine is made from shellfish covering.<br />
Also ask the patient if they are thinking about combining<br />
a dietary supplement with their conventional medical<br />
treatment. If so, tell them to consult there doctor.<br />
