BECAUSE THEY ARE MADE FROM PLANT CONCENTRATES, NUTRILITE SUPPLEMENTS CONTAIN A WIDE ARRAY OF PHYTONUTRIENTS, setting Nutrilite apart from other makers of dietary supplements. While we believe you should eat whole fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible, NUTRILITE supplements fill in the gap between the fruits and veggies you need and what you actually eat, with natural plant ingredients and the nutrition that most people dont get from their diet alone.
ARE PHYTONUTRIENTS JUST A NEW HEALTH BUZZWORD? Not at Nutrilite. Theyve been a cornerstone of NUTRILITE products since the company was founded over 75 years ago. While phytonutrients, the natural nutrients found in plants beneficial to human health, have been part of the chemical makeup of fruits and vegetables for as long as theyve grown on earth, its only been in recent years that specific phytonutrients have been isolated, identified, and studied for their many beneficial qualities. Worldwide research has now recognized that a diet rich in phytonutrients can help lead to optimal health. That discovery has made phytonutrients a hot topic on blogs, in magazines, and in the news. Read on to discover the depth and range of phytonutrients and their health benefits in whole foods and in NUTRILITE products. Go to Nutrilite.com/color to understand why Nutrilite is the leader in phytonutrients.
VISIONARY ROOTS With phytonutrients in the news, people are finally starting to learn about and understand the health benefits of using concentrated plant ingredients that were apparent to Nutrilite founder Carl Rehnborg. Carl lived in China in the early 1920s, where he noticed that people in farming communities, where fresh fruits and vegetables were plentiful, were much healthier. In the cities, where diets included more sugar, salt, and fat, Carl noted that there was more disease, such as scurvy and beriberi. This cemented the idea for Carl that the foods people eat have great impact on their overall health. When he returned to the U.S., he developed a way to dry plants such as alfalfa, watercress, and parsley, while preserving their important nutrients. This initial work became the basis for the first multivitamin/multimineral supplement in North America.
TODAY, NUTRILITE IS A LEADER IN PHYTONUTRIENT RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT, INNOVATION, AND EDUCATION. Under the leadership of Carls son, Dr. Sam Rehnborg, the next generation of scientists, researchers, and technicians is preserving the rich Nutrilite heritage by continuing to produce high-quality, innovative supplements and exploring the relationship between the soil and plants on their own certified organic farms.

Phytonutrients are the natural nutrients found in plants, such as lycopene from tomatoes, resveratrol from grapes, and lutein from spinach leaves. Phytonutrients offer broad antioxidant protection and provide many health benefits, yet we often dont consume enough through diet alone.
