My Experience with Now Foods
A few years ago, I stumbled upon Now Foods and was instantly intrigued by their affordable prices. However, I couldn't help but wonder about the quality of their products. So when the brand reached out and asked if I would be interested in joining them for their Chicago influencer event, I immediately said yes!
I just returned from spending 36 hours with the brand and am excited to share my experience (And no, this isn’t sponsored & brand didn’t request I write this).
Let me begin by stating that I was blown away by not only the generosity of the brand, but also by how well organized everything was. Everything, from airport pick-ups to meals and events, was flawlessly executed.
I was shocked to find all these goodies when I entered my rooms!
Before I dive into the details of the event, let me provide you with a brief background on the company…
Now Foods was established in 1968 by Richard Elwood and remains a family-owned business to this day. While they started with a modest product line, Now Foods now offers over 1400 products across six major categories:
Supplements
Beauty
Essential Oils
Sports Nutrition
Natural Foods
Pet Health
As I had the opportunity to meet the team, one thing stood out above all else: their openness and transparency. When a company willingly opens its doors to the public, it speaks volumes about their integrity.
As a dietitian, my attention is naturally drawn to two crucial aspects when evaluating a company: product quality and testing procedures.
I was happy to discover that Now Foods boasts an extensive and impressive in-house testing facility, conducting over 19,000 quality tests each month.
Here's how it all works:
Suppliers must undergo a rigorous process before becoming partners.
Even after this initial screening, every single ingredient is meticulously tested upon arrival at the facility. Only when an ingredient passes these rigorous tests does it enter production.
The final product is then tested again before being send out to the consumer.
I frequently emphasize the importance of avoiding proprietary blends when it comes to purchasing supplements. These blends hide the precise composition of the product, making it challenging to determine the effectiveness of individual ingredients within your body.
Now Foods takes a different approach. They do not use any proprietary blends and provide complete transparency regarding the exact amounts of each ingredient used in their products.
Needless to say, when you buy their supplements you’re getting exactly what it says on the bottle. You can trust that their supplements contain exactly what is stated on the bottle. This may seem like common sense, but it's a significant problem plaguing the supplement industry.
After personally meeting the CEO and Now Foods team, learning about their products, and touring their production facility, I can confidently says that this is an incredible brand.
They have remained family owned & operated, and it shows in their commitment to their customers. They keep the products low cost, without compromising quality.
While I was blown away by their state-of-the-art production and testing facilities, I was even more impressed by the incredible people working behind the scenes. Their team consists of devoted, hardworking, intelligent, and kind individuals who go the extra mile to ensure transparency and maintain top-notch quality.
This is a brand I truly believe in, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have experienced what they stand for behind the scenes!
Thank you, Now Foods, for an unforgettable time!
