JOURNEY OF NUTRILITE
Founder of NUTRILITE Inventor of Multivitamins & nutrients from plants
History • While living in china in early 1920’s Carl Rehnborg noticed , an important connection between the foods people ate and their overall health.
• • During political unrest in Shanghai, Carl was isolated in a protected enclave. There, he conceived the idea of using nutritional elements missing from the typical diet as a way to improve overall health.
• Carl supplemented his meager diet •with soups from what was available: •local herbs, grasses, and vegetables, •and lime stone and ground-up •along with rusty nails (for iron) •animal bones (for calcium). • • He shared his broth with a few friends, although the flavor was far from palatable. • Months later, Carl and his friends who ate the nutrient-rich broth emerged from their enclave much healthier than those who had eaten only army rations.
• He developed a way to dry these plants while still preserving their important nutrients. • He created a formulation of alfalfa, watercress, and parsley, which became the basis of his first product. •
Farming • Nutrilite always apply a rule “If we are utilizing the resources from plant then the plant also needs those resources to generate it”. • Nutrilite avoid the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers. • They replenish the soil, rather than depleting it. • Environmentally-friendly methods to control weeds, insects and other harmful things.
