The Empresa de Farmacias y Opticas reported an 11-percent increase in production, compared to the previous year.

That volume accounts for an average of more than six bottles of natural medications per each of the province's 511,000 inhabitants.

One of the most demanded products is Vimang, which contributes to preventing the harmful effects of oxidative stress.

Vimang, which is obtained from the bark of 17 varieties of mango trees, comes in the form of cream, extract, syrup and infusion.

Vimang has been successfully used to improve the quality of life of patients suffering from chronic diseases.
