Slight change to enrollment screen on corporate website

Hello everyone,

We would like to give you a quick heads up on a slight change we’re making to the enrollment screen on the corporate websites.

We’ve received a lot of Team Member feedback about people not seeing all the enrollment options because they have to scroll down, so we’ve realigned the options to make them all visible without scrolling. I’ve included a screenshot below.

This will go live for all markets later today. If you have any questions, please call our respective customer service hotline.

Thanks!

Being the Standard

What does the term high-quality really mean?

As it relates to the natural supplement industry we believe it means BEING the standard for everyone else to follow. It means knowing, understanding, and guaranteeing what your product is, does, and will do from now through the life of the product.

At Synergy WorldWide, along with Nature's Sunshine Products, we've set the standard and we invite all to follow. You see, when it comes to your health, we don't guess, we test. We guarantee.

In addition to producing the highest quality products, Synergy WorldWide and Nature's Sunshine are actively engaged in the industry's political front by being members of the United Natural Products Alliance (UNPA).

The UNPA is an association of dietary supplement and functional food companies that share a commitment to provide consumers with natural health products of superior quality, benefit and reliability.

As a member of this alliance, we work with the UNPA to carry out its core mission, which is to help assure the full and proper implementation and enforcement of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA).

This includes a suite of laws and regulations that support DSHEA, such as GMP regulations, adverse event reporting systems, analytical method development, control of steroids masquerading as supplements and international quality management protocols.

Synergy WorldWide's membership with the UNPA is another testament to Synergy's dedication to offering you the highest quality supplements in the world.

Highest Quality Ingredients

Our quality begins with our ingredients. Each supplier is pre-screened, their processes are tested, and they must send samples of ingredients for us to test so we can make sure their tests match ours.

Each supplier is given the required specifications for the raw materials we want. Once accepted, vendors are constantly under review: we track performance and provide them with monthly feedback on timeliness, rejections, responsiveness, and anything else that may affect their ability to supply high quality ingredients.

In addition, we regularly audit our vendors. Each year we personally visit the facilities of our suppliers and perform an on-site audit.We have dozens of suppliers and rotate through them, visiting 40–50 sites per year.

Even though we work closely with our suppliers, we sometimes find that a batch of raw materials doesn’t meet our standards. When this happens, the materials are rejected and sent back to the supplier at their cost.We annually reject about five percent of the raw materials we receive.

The ProArgi-9+ formula contains highest quality ingredients such as pomegranate, ribose, xylitol, and vitamins B6, and B12. Together, these ingredients are nutritional ingredients carefully selected for the cardiovascular system and heart.

Based on Nobel Prize-winning research, the l-arginine in ProArgi-9 Plus is of highest quality and has been validated by thousands of clinical studies.
