Words like “recommended by pharmacists and doctors” invokes an element of expectation and trust for quality, but did you know many of these so called “top brands” are actually owned by multinational pharmaceutical and chemical companies? How much can we trust a supplement that is manufactured by the same giant company that also makes Roundup?

Many of these brands were once small businesses, but now have been swallowed up. Do they continue to hold the same values that they did when they were starting out and pioneering in the supplement industry?

• Centrum, the “#1 brand of supplements recommended by pharmacists and medical doctors”, is owned by the pharmaceutical giant Glaxo Smith Kline. GSK is a global pharmaceutical company that posted double digit sales growth in the second quarter of 2022 with its vast focus on general and specialty medicines and vaccines.

• Nature Made is owned by Pharmavite. The parent company for Pharmavite is the Japanese company Otsuka Pharmaceuticals.

• One-A-Day is owned by Bayer. Bayer is global enterprise involved with pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and agricultural chemicals.

• General Nutrition Centers (GNC) was acquired recently by Harbin Pharmaceutical Group, a Chinese partially state-owned pharmaceutical manufacturer.

• New Chapter was acquired by Procter & Gamble in 2012.

• Nature’s Bounty, Vitafusion MultiVites, Swanson, Nature’s Way Alive!, Olly The Perfect Men’s/Women’s Multi, MegaFood and many other well-known brands are owned by mega pharmaceutical corporations like Nestle, Proctor & Gamble (P&G), Pfizer, KKR, SPC and others.

What comes first, profits or health? Are these pharmaceutical giants more interested in your disease care or your nutrition care?

Manufactured in USA

Wellness Resources® supplements are manufactured in the United States. Our labs follow stringent quality guidelines and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs). Each production lot is tested to ensure finished product quality, purity, and potency.
Our supplements are made in small batches with the highest quality ingredients as opposed to mass produced supplement tablets that are hard to digest, are synthetic, and filled with food colorings, sugars, aluminum, tin, and/or preservatives. Small batches allow us to keep quality a top priority.

Third-Party Tested

We use third party testing to verify the identity and amounts of ingredients to ensure you are getting exactly what’s on the label. We test for contaminants such as microbes and heavy metals. Rest assured, you’re getting the highest purity supplements on the market!
