How Real is Your Vitamin?
The truth about what’s really in most vitamins is shocking. Coal tar, petroleum, rocks are all common ingredients in synthetic supplements.
The worst part is that, in reality, 95% of all vitamin supplements sold are synthetically made!
Mannatech’s Real Food Technology solutions products contain no tar, no rock, no synthetic substances at all! Nothing but real food nutrients!

150 million people take a vitamin/mineral product. 95% of all sold are synthetically made.
Do you know what is in your vitamin/mineral?
The FDA requires that all dietary supplement product labels include a Supplement Facts box. This box must show the amount (if present in a measurable amount) of calories, calories from fat, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrates, dietary fiber, sugars, protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium and iron in a product.
The Percent Daily Value for any dietary ingredient for which the FDA has established daily values must also be included. Vitamins and minerals added for purposes of supplementation or for which a claim is made must also be declared. A list of product ingredients is also required.
Dietary supplement companies have some freedom regarding how they present this information. But at Mannatech, our expert Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance teams work very hard to ensure that what you read on our labels is what you will find in our products.
Basically, with us, what you see is what you get.
Get the Facts
Check out the label on our PhytoMatrix caplets; they contain natural vitamins and minerals like vitamin C from acerola fruit extract, magnesium from red algae and copper from mustard sprouts. No unpronounceable or unrecognisable names here. Become a label reader and you can be more confident in your choices. It’s only natural to want the best for yourself and your family.
If you knew that your nutritional supplements were made of petroleum and rocks, would you switch?
To achieve standardized levels of vitamin and mineral ingredients, there are only two sources:
Synthetically Made
Synthetic vitamins are produced chemically in a laboratory and may be made from petroleum or coal tar, they are not in a food form.
Most minerals used for supplementation are minded from the ground or manufactured from chemical processes. This is because these methods are less expensive.
Tests have shown that these minerals do not dissolve well (they are not soluble) in either the stomach or small intestine.
Plant – Sourced
Naturally sourced vitamins are extracted from foods or plants or cultured in yeast.
Plants use multiple processes to accumulate minerals from the soil, they predigest them and then bond them into a food matrix. Minerals from plants are, therefore, more soluble.
Research suggests that naturally sourced vitamins are easier to absorb and retain than synthetically made vitamins.
Do you know where your Multivitamin comes from?
Most people don’t even know the source or quality of the products that they take. Mannatech believes that the best vitamin mineral supplementation should include:
Naturally sourced vitamins with standardised and properly labeled amounts.
Plant-sourced minerals at standardised and properly labeled amounts.
Our Phytomatrix® caplets deliver real food-sourced nutrients!

BY NOW, EVERYONE KNOWS FOOD ISN’T ALL THAT IT USED TO BE!
IT DOESN’T CONTAIN THE NUTRIENTS IT ONCE DID! THAT’S A FACT!
We logically then look to supplementation to give our body what it needs. This is the right idea – there is however a BUT… innovative research reveals it’s not quite this straight forward.
THE BAD NEWS FIRST: The truth about what’s really in most vitamins is shocking. Coal tar, petroleum and rocks are all common ingredients in synthetic supplements. The worst part is that, in reality, 95% of all vitamin supplements sold are synthetically made.
THE GOOD NEWS: Mannatech’s Real food technology solutions products contain no tar, no rock, no synthetic substances at all! Nothing but real food nutrients!
Would you like to switch to a real food supplement?.
Social entrepreneurs are relentless in their efforts to change what’s wrong in the world. The bigger the problem, the more motivated they become.

Innovation provides the best solutions to global problems. The business strategy, must be easily duplicated and scalable for fast growth in order to achieve global impact as quickly as possible.

Social Entrepreneurial organisations seek to financially compensate everyone who feels the passion for their cause in direct proportion to their contribution. The key strategy lies in its ability to appropriately compensate both the career minded as well as the millions of individuals in the world who would just like to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children.
A great book that you can read on Social Entrepreneurship is:
How to Change the World (Social Entrepreneurs and the Power of New Ideas) – David Bornstein
You may not be aware of the term “social entrepreneurship” but is is becoming the most powerful business model of the 21st century. It’s an exciting new business strategy that tackles global problems such as poverty, malnutrition, clean air and water, and health care.
In fact, this new initiative has the world’s leading policy makers predicting that it will not only become the most purposeful, profitable platform of our time, but also a revolutionary paradigm shift for sustainable global improvement.
While all of this may sound lofty and unreachable, it’s absolutely not. Because we’ve got an easy, seamless, dynamic way for you to join us as we set out to change the world.
Who are Social Entrepreneurs?
Even though they come in all shapes and sizes, they share some common threads. Social entrepreneurs:
*Are people determined to solve the world’s biggest challenges through innovative and purpose-driven solutions
*Leverage both the cash flow and technological support of their for profit enterprises by linking them to existing not-for-profit organistions, in order to achieve their world-changing goals
*Are the forerunners, the catalysts, for a major paradigm shift in how we solve the world’s biggest problems
*They are people who just want to help those in need.
Please watch this great video from MannaRelief it just shows you what they are doing for the children around the world.
This is such a wonderful program and I am really happy to be a part of it.
Lets all make a difference!
It is so easy to do, all you need to do is swap your vitamins and minerals that you take now for one of our real food technology products and notice the difference. If you feel a difference then imagine how the children in need are feeling as they are receiving the same nutritional product that you are.

Lack of proper nutrition has become a global epidemic. The facts are startling and tragic.
In developing countries, children receive too little of the right kind of food. According to the New York Times, one-third to one-half of all children’s deaths in the world are related to malnutrition.
In industrialised countries, children receive too much of the wrong kind of food (According to research undertaken by investigators from Deakin University and the University of Sydney, it now appears that as many as 95% of adult Australians are failing to meet the National Health guidelines for nutrition and activity).
A Real, Natural Solution Sourced from Food
Until recently, the only way to provide standardised levels of vitamins and minerals was through synthetically manufactured and inorganically sourced ingredients. However, when given the choice, most people would prefer to get their nutrients from food.
Mannatech have pioneered the concept of combining cutting-edge science with food-sourced ingredients to create the most nutritionally beneficial products for the human body. They call that: Real Food Technology® solutions. In fact, Mannatech recently received its first patent for the the technology supporting PhytoMatrix® caplets, the world’s first nutritional complex with both standardised and nutritionally effective levels of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients sourced from natural, food-based ingredients. Mannatech recently formulated PhytoBlend™ powder, derived from our state-of-the-art PhytoMatrix caplets, to best meet the needs of the world’s most vulnerable children.
The impact of our innovative new technology has been radical and heart-stirring. Right now, in front our very eyes, we are affecting the lives of the world’s most undernourished children. We’re an agent of change, right in the middle of it all.
