Going Behind the Nutrilite™ Label
Food safety has been making headline news these days in a big way. Stories about food recalls and other safety issues compete with those uncovering food adulteration and food fraud.
Together, Nutrilite and Amway continue to carry forward a shared vision: help people live better lives.

Food safety has been making headline news these days in a big way. Stories about food recalls and other safety issues compete with those uncovering food adulteration and food fraud.

The Nutrilite philosophy is part of my DNA, and spending a lifetime sharing it has been one of my greatest joys. In the coming months, I’ll be focusing on stories that shine a spotlight on the action behind the Nutrilite label as well as lessons learned from my life adventures.

Where do you turn to for advice when buying a new product? If you’re like most folks these days, you go online. After all, there is no shortage of data traveling over the internet ether. The challenge is turning all that data into usable information to make an informed decision.

It’s clear that embracing a sustainable, healthy lifestyle is more important than ever, not only for the islanders, but for people all around the world. As Francesca and I headed back home, we started to formulate a plan to help.

I’m just back from Japan where I was invited to introduce the next generation of Triple X.

I had a chance to return to the Amway Botanical Research Center (ABRC) in Wuxi to learn about the latest research updates, including one that had me thinking about my early days as a young scientist.

I just returned from a whirlwind trip to China where I spoke about the future of the Nutrilite brand. Once the plane hit the tarmac, we were off and running for nine days with scheduled events in Shanghai, Wuxi, Beijing and Guangzhou, punctuated only by travel days.

It has been a busy month as I hit the ground running … literally … with kids definitely on my mind. A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to be a part of Kids Run the OC, an innovative program that encourages kids to eat right and stay active to avoid the consequences of overnutrition and obesity.
Reflections from Dr. Sam
Personal wellbeing isn’t just about you or me. It’s about the people around us, our family, friends and the greater community. Taking care of yourself, nurturing your connection with nature, and making an effort to transform challenges into opportunities, will help lead us to a future where we can all happily coexist.
Wellness has always been central to my story. When my father, Carl F. Rehnborg, founded Nutrilite in 1934, his goal was to help people everywhere take responsibility for their health, their wealth, and the planet. Even then, he knew that all these things were interconnected. His vision shaped my own path—a journey grounded in curiosity, science, and a passion for helping others live well.
Nutrilite is so much more than a plant-based supplement brand – it is a way of life that has stood the test of time. With a passion centered on health + wellbeing, Amway is the world’s largest direct selling company*. It spans six continents with a presence in 100+ countries and territories.

There’s a long history of farming innovation at Nutrilite. It started when my father, Carl F. Rehnborg, began growing alfalfa in the 1930s before we even knew to call it organic. He was looking for the purest, most nutritious botanicals, and he already knew that they needed to be grown sustainably and naturally, without any synthetic fertilizers or chemicals. That same belief continues to guide us today.
