Dietary Supplements
Dietary Supplements
There is a growing demand for dietary supplements, with nearly 75% of people using tham as part of their daily life*. As nutrition science evolves, more and more people have become interested in learning about how to take care of their bodies and ensure that they’re running at peak performance. Some consumers just want a little “nutritional insurance” while others face unique deficiencies that can hold them back from living the life they want. Either way, understanding our dietary needs is more important than ever.
In the past, dietary supplements were primarily pressed tablets and were dominated by multivitamins and single letter nutrients like Vitamin C. Now, consumers have come to expect new formulations such as gummies, beverage sachets and tonics to bring more convenience and enjoyment to their nutritional experience. From formulation to product application and launch, we’re here to help you create products that consumers both need and love.

Our nutrients support various aspects of human health such as cognitive, bone, liver, and prenatal health as well as sports nutrition.

In fact, according to NHANES* data, 90% of adults don’t get enough choline, and nearly 50% fall short of recommended magnesium intakes.
