Health and Dietary Supplements



Every one of us requires health supplements so that we can get proper nutrients and start leading a healthy life. Due to this reason a lot of health experts have created many health products that are fortified with essential nutrients. These products or supplements have been created by keeping in view the requirements of people and how they can be met. You will be able to live a healthy life long after you start taking them in your daily diet. Along with the supplements; you must also visit health care provider regularly. This will help you keep track of important information about your body and your health. The doctor will be able to offer you the best medicines and nutritional supplements based on your medical condition.
But one should always remember when purchasing a supplement that the supplement is made strictly organically (from plants) and never inorganic (from chemicals). There is a lot of vitamin and mineral supplements in the market nowadays but most of them are made inorganically.

Nutrilite is the oldest, biggest, most researched supplement company in the world with over 250 health products globally scientifically proven to positively affect our DNA.While it took 67 years of solid and steady growth to reach $1 Billion, in the last 5 years, sales have almost tripled to reach $3 Billion!

Nutrilite was started in the year 1934 by Carl Rehnborg, who created the first nutrition product/supplement in the world and became the pioneer in the history of nutrition.The control of Nutrilite was later bought by Amway in the year 1972.



Among the products, one of the best sellers for Amway is the Nutrilite brand. Nutrilite is a nutraceautical supplement and this brand contributes around 50% of Amway's turnover. The brand virtually faces no competition so far. The Indian nutraceauticals market is estimated to be around Rs 1500 crores and is rapidly growing. Many Indian companies are eying this segment and have serious plans to enter this segment.
