Your supplement label may look the same....but do you know who owns the company behind it?
Thorne was just bought by Procter & Gamble. ~ and I hate seeing genuinely good companies get bought by massive corporations.
Garden of Life? Nestlé.
Pure Encapsulations? Nestlé.
Natural Vitality CALM? Clorox.
It’s wild how many brands we think of as independent, “clean” wellness companies are actually owned by corporate giants.
And here’s what I pay attention to with big buyouts: the label and branding may stay familiar, but ownership, sourcing, priorities, and sometimes formulations can change over time.
I actually take many of the same supplements a lot of you are already using: D3/K2, berberine, fiber, creatine, greens, protein, omega-3s, collagen, iron, etc. The difference is that I choose formulas that thoughtfully combine ingredients designed to complement one another rather than expecting one ingredient to do everything alone.
So the next time you’re running low and getting ready to restock, it may be worth looking at who is behind the brand you’re buying.
I personally love supporting a privately owned company with strict third-party testing, high-quality ingredients, no artificial colors, sweeteners or flavors, non-GMO standards, and products made in the USA.
That’s the kind of integrity I want behind what I’m putting into my body ~ and it’s worth taking a look before automatically reordering the same thing out of habit.
We’re not a tiny company, but we’re not owned by one of the corporate giants either. This OG gut-health company has been around for years and is continuing to grow worldwide. 🙌🏼
Before you restock, take a second look at what you’re buying ~ and who you’re buying it from. Comment SWAP to learn more about my faves! 🤍
