Our Mission:
Designing a Well World
We are driven by a higher purpose. We are activists for health—rooted in and united by science. Transforming boundaries, breaking barriers, setting new standards, disrupting the status quo.
We believe in science-based nutrition and natural medicine, developing health products without compromise, and advancing the way education and technology support wellness for all.
We will keep discovering. We will keep connecting. We will keep fearlessly advocating for the greater good. So that one-day, natural medicine and the science of nutrition stand at the forefront of the healthcare landscape.
Here, holistic thinking comes first. Functional medicine becomes conventional medicine. Supplements and lifestyles converge. A wellness epidemic begins. We design a new paradigm.
We design a well world.
Our Origins:
Family, Integrity and Innovation
In 1989, Designs for Health began as a family-owned company offering nutritional counseling and educational services with deep roots in natural medicine and functional nutrition. Three decades later, we have stayed committed to the integrity of our products, customer service, company operations, and family values.
Through that commitment, Designs for Health has established itself as the leading innovator and fastest growing brand of high-quality nutritional supplements in the healthcare practitioner channel. With one of the largest and widest range of nutritional supplement lines, we are focused on successful patient treatment outcomes exclusively to health professionals.
Our Commitment to You:
Science-First
Our primary commitment is to provide only the best to our health care practitioners and their patients. We take pride in research-driven, evidence-based products created with synergistic formulations offering meaningful quantities of therapeutic ingredients. As leaders in research and innovation, we continue to raise the bar and elevate standards for the supplemental health care industry.
The Science-First philosophy follows scientific evidence rather than trends. The result is superior quality ingredients with proven efficacy for optimal results. Rather than focusing on convenience and cutting costs, we believe that our commitment to delivering exceptional care to our partners helps us achieve our ultimate goal: to design a new paradigm of health and improve the health and wellbeing of all.
Our Professional Line:
A Benefit for Everyone
The Designs for Health line is a professional brand offered exclusively to health care professionals and their patients through referral, practitioner e-stores, and Amazon.
