PROVO, Utah, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. announces its first ageLOC(TM) nutritional product, ageLOC Vitality. The company is rolling out the product to top sales leaders this month at sold-out conventions in North America, Japan, Europe and the Pacific. As part of the pre-launch of the product, distributors in the United States, Canada and Japan had the opportunity to purchase ageLOC Vitality in September.
"With the blockbuster success of the ageLOC Transformation skin care system, we are continuing to build the ageLOC platform by taking the battle against aging 'inside,'" said Truman Hunt, Nu Skin president and chief executive officer. "It is particularly encouraging to see our sales leaders responding so positively to ageLOC Vitality and the business opportunity it represents."
According to Datamonitor, 85 percent of global consumers are concerned about their energy and stamina levels and by the time they reach their mid- to-late thirties, most adults report a decline in youthful vitality before they notice their first wrinkle.
"The key source of youthful vitality is found in mitochondria, which are most highly concentrated in the brain, heart and muscle," said Dr. Joseph Chang, Ph.D., Nu Skin chief scientific officer and executive vice president of product development. "As we age, the efficiency and number of our mitochondria decline. Nu Skin's ageLOC approach targets genes related to mitochondrial function and vitality to promote a more youthful expression pattern."
ageLOC Vitality is formulated to improve three dimensions of vitality, including physical vigor, mental acuity and sexual health, by promoting healthy gene activity associated with youthful vitality. With consistent use, the product helps raise baseline energy and avoid the highs and lows typically caused by harsh stimulants and excessive sugar.
