Pharmanex®

a different kind of natural health company

The difference is clear: Pharmanex sets the industry standard for scientific integrity. Pharmanex scientists examine the natural, healthy processes that take place in the body and determine how nutritional supplementation can enhance these functions. After weighing these factors, only substances known to be safe and effective in promoting health are taken to the next stage of development.

Once selected, all Pharmanex ingredients are subjected to a stringent, scientific analysis known as the 6S® Quality Guarantee. This patented manufacturing process - based on selection, sourcing, structure, standardization, safety, and substantiation - enables Pharmanex to lead the pack in quality and efficacy. The company consistently meets or exceeds the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) standards set by the FDA for this product category.

Today, more than 125 on staff scientists lead the Pharmanex research and development team. These scientists review published clinical and scientific studies to identify botanicals that may have health-promoting properties. Original research is also coordinated with more than 150 noted scientists from around the world, representing such institutions as Harvard, Stanford, UCLA, Columbia, Purdue, Peking University Health Science Center, Shanghai Medical University, and Peking University. Through these affiliations and extensive research, the Pharmanex difference becomes clear.

The Pharmanex brand of science-based nutritional supplements is a part of Nu Skin Enterprises, a global direct selling company operating in 41 markets throughout Asia, the Americas, and Europe.

The only difference between Pharmanex and the giant pharmaceutical companies is that the products of Pharmanex are in their natural state while the products of the pharmaceutical giants are all synthesized.

Pharmanex maintains 4 research and development facilities worldwide devoted solely to natural supplements. More than 125 highly paid scientists work full time in these facilities. 150 scientists all over the world representing 28 top ranked medical schools coordinate with our scientists. The Pharmanex Scientific Advisory Board has members who are heavyweights in the supplements field such as Carl Djerassi, Ph.D. (father of the birth control pill), Lester Mitscher, Ph.D. (green tea research), Lester Packer, Ph.D. (foremost antioxidant research scientist), Koji Nakanishi, Ph.D. (gingko biloba research), etc. The research and development activities of Pharmanex can easily be considered at par with the giants in the pharmaceutical industry. No other supplements company come as near.

All manufacturing facilities of Pharmanex exceed the minimum requirement of the FDA Pharmaceutical GMP’s. Its flagship product, Life Pak, and well as five others (CordyMax Cs-4, Cortitrol Stress Control Formula, Optimum Omega, Tegreen 97, and Reishimax GLp) are listed in the Physicians’ Desk Reference – the defacto bible of medical drugs. This book was primarily for pharmaceutical drugs but the 6 products of the company got listed there because of the numerous clinical studies validating their effectiveness. No other supplements company has more than one product listed in the Physicians’ Reference Guide.

1. Selection – Pharmanex employs team of experts from around the world to exhaustively compile both historical and current intelligence about the benefits of natural products. Only natural products that pass extensive Pharmanex criteria where authenticity, efficacy, and safety are considered.

2. Sourcing – Once Pharmanex has selected a particular natural product, our experts investigate potential commercial sources from across the globe. Pharmanex does not rely on vendors for quality assurance but conducts independent evaluation of its raw material sources for quality, concentration of active ingredients, and year-round availability in commercial quantities.

3. Structure – Our scientists carefully analyze the chemical structures of compounds found in natural products to identify not only the active constituents, but also any potentially-unsafe compounds. This provides a “chemical fingerprint” to guide consistent manufacturing.

4. Standardization – Although wide variations in active ingredients are characteristic of most natural products, each capsule of a Pharmanex product contains the same amount of each active ingredient. This is achieved through strict, often proprietary standardization process that were developed through chemical fingerprinting. The end product is ensured to have consistent quality.

5. Safety – Pharmanex leads the way in setting the highest industry standards for safety of its products. We carefully consider all available safety data and conduct our own safety studies. Pharmaceutical-grade testing for the presence of microbes, pesticide, and heavy metals is conducted for all products throughout the manufacturing process.

6. Substantiation – Pharmanex makes product claims that are substantiated by documented pre-clinical and clinical studies. Our adherence to documented proof instead of anecdotes for substantiation differentiates Pharmanex from other supplement companies.
