How to Manufacture a Great Multivitamin
Multivitamins are a great option for consumers that don’t get the proper amount of vitamins and minerals from their diet. Half of American adults regularly take a multivitamin as a way to boost their overall health. The supplement industry brings in about $30 billion and multivitamins are one of the top products in the category. With such a large marketplace, what makes a great multivitamin?
Ingredients to Use
A great multivitamin starts with the ingredients. As a popular product in the health and wellness space, there are a handful of ingredients that are included in the majority of products in the marketplace.
- Vitamin D increases the body’s ability to absorb calcium. Over 40% of Americans don’t get enough vitamin D which can lead to being more susceptible to illnesses and bone/back pain.
- Calcium promotes healthy bones and teeth. Getting enough calcium can fend off losing too much bone density, especially for women. Just make sure to pair it with Vitamin D for increased absorption!
- Zinc supports the immune system function at its best. It also helps the body produce energy from carbs, proteins, and fats. Most Americans aren’t able to get enough zinc from their diets so it’s a popular ingredient for multivitamins!
- Magnesium has a variety of benefits as an essential nutrient. Not only does it increase energy production, but it also supports balanced blood sugar and manages muscle and nerve function.
- Vitamin B-12 is mostly known for its ability to boost energy levels. However, it has many more benefits. Vitamin b-12 helps increase the production of red blood cells, maintains healthy bones, and increases cognitive function!
Picking the Right Manufacturer
Ingredients alone can’t make a product really stand out. When you’re looking for a multivitamin to add to your product line, it’s important to consider how the product is manufactured. There are a few ways to help you pick the right supplement manufacturer!
A facility that is FDA-registered and cGMP certified should be a top priority! These certifications mean that your products are being made following guidelines that ensure the highest quality.
Custom formulations can help your product stand out even more! Look for a manufacturer that specializes in helping you customize your product from formulation to label design. Also look for a facility that can make a variety of products, like tablets, powders, or capsules.
A manufacturer that has the right experience! Your manufacturer should be able to help you navigate a variety of products, be transparent in turnaround times, and help you grow your business!
