Only the best phytonutrients go into NUTRILITE® products
Because they are made from plant concentrates, NUTRILITE supplements contain a wide array
of phytonutrients, the natural nutrients in plants that are beneficial to human health, setting
Nutrilite apart from other makers of dietary supplements. While we believe you should eat whole
fresh fruits and vegetables whenever possible, Nutrilite products 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 don’t get from their diet alone.
Because Nutrilite believes strongly in the power of phytonutrients and wants to use only the
best sources, many of the plant concentrates that go into NUTRILITE products come from our
own farms. In fact, NUTRILITE is the only global vitamin and mineral brand to grow, harvest,
and process plants on their own certified organic farms, spread out over 6,400 acres in
California, Washington state, Mexico, and Brazil. NUTRILITE

The best phytonutrients come from organic farms
Why go to the trouble and expense of farming organic? Plants produce phytonutrients as
a defense mechanism against pests and disease. When crops are sprayed with chemicals
that defend the plants, they don’t have to work as hard to produce phytonutrients and the
result is less nutritious produce. On the flip side, plants raised organically have abundant
amounts of higher-quality phytonutrients.
Owning and maintaining control over our own NUTRILITE farms, ensures that our supplements
contain high-quality ingredients. Our crops are grown in accordance with nature, based on the
following nine principles. substances found in plants that give
them their unique color. To get the full
range of health benefits associated with
phytonutrients, try to eat a rainbow of
color every day.
Divide fruits and vegetables into
five groups:
Red, Orange/Yellow, Green,
Blue/Purple, and White.
Eat at least one fruit or vegetable
from each color and go for variety.
