Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the word “natural” were fully protected and couldn’t be claimed by just anyone? Many supplement brands claim to provide “natural” vitamins and minerals, while this is often not the case. Always check the ingredients list on the product. If it doesn’t specify the source of a vitamin or mineral, there’s a very high chance it is synthetic or isolated. What many people don’t know is that only a handful of companies actually produce isolated vitamins and minerals. Almost every supplement brand buys from the same pharmaceutical factories, meaning the raw materials are nearly always identical. So why is there such a large price difference between brands? The answer is simple: marketing. THE BEST VITAMINS AND MINERALS Since 2008, Royal Green has been passionately producing certified organic supplements. It was the first brand in the Netherlands to offer 100% organic vitamin C, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc, multivitamins and more. The independent organic certification on the products proves this. This certification guarantees that all ingredients are truly plant-based and not synthetic. Royal Green works with more than 60 organic farms around the world and is extremely proud of this. If an ingredient is available in an organic form, Royal Green will always choose it. How reassuring is that? SYNTHETIC VS ORGANIC SUPPLEMENTS Synthetic vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) is a single substance, produced by humans. Organic acerola, on the other hand, provides not only vitamin C but also dozens of different nutrients (including vitamins B1, B2, B3, bioflavonoids, fibre, polyphenols, magnesium, calcium, iron and other phytonutrients). As a result, it has a broader function and effect within the body. Ultimately, it’s a choice you need to make before buying a supplement:Do I want synthetic or organic vitamins and minerals? Royal Green always provides vitamins from nature.Certified organic and vegan.
