Trusted by over 76,000 New Zealanders. Home of Lester’s Oil, Res-V Ultimate and Element 12 Magnesium. It all started back in 2005 when my mother was diagnosed with a serious blood ailment, her prognosis wasn't good and to top it off she also had joint mobility issues and was in desperate need of a hip replacement operation. I was desperate to give her a better chance at life, so I set out researching natural products. During my search I came across an article on resveratrol in the Australian Science Magazine Cosmos. In the article Dr. David Sinclair, a scientist at Harvard University, shared his fascinating research on the substance and its numerous potential health benefits. This really caught my attention and I thought I need to get hold of some of this for my mother to try. The astonishing results

At the time, resveratrol wasn't being sold anywhere; however, I was determined to source some for my mother. I eventually found a supplier and together we selected the formula that later would become known as New Zealand’s number one selling resveratrol supplement, Res-V Plus. I gave my mother some to try and just 10 days later I received a phone call from my father who exclaimed: "Your Mum no longer needs her mechanical claw to pick things up off the ground!”

Although I had set out to help Mum with her much more serious health issue, this unexpected benefit was a great result. Within weeks, I started receiving positive feedback from my mother's friends who had seen significant improvements in my mother’s mobility and wanted to try some themselves. I was hand writing the ingredients on labels and out the door it went, I hadn’t even given it a name. I thought to myself there must be so many other people that could benefit from this product; it was this that led to the founding of About Health in 2006. I have since invested a lot of time into researching natural products and formulating multi-ingredient, multi-benefit supplements. Lester's Oil, is our latest formulation and is named after my father Lester who passed away in 2009. Dad died of one of the worst cancers you can get, pancreatic cancer. The thing that makes this cancer so deadly is that by the time you are diagnosed, it has usually spread to other organs, like your liver. This means that from the point of diagnosis, you generally live just months. Dad was only 67 when he died, and I think that’s far too young. During his illness, I often thought to myself; What could I have given my father, that could have reduced his chances of getting sick in the first place?’ and from that question came Lester’s Oil (www.abouthealth.co.nz/products/lestersoil)

While there are no guarantees in life, I firmly believe that supplements can help increase our chances of living longer, healthier lives. Read the full story of Daniel's Mum here: http://abouthealth.co.nz/about-health-story/

In supplements, Magnesium is often included as a compound, and each compound is known to support a specific health concern. Element 12 Magnesium contains 3 forms of highly bioavailable magnesium, so thankfully you don’t need to worry about choosing just one!

Magnesium Citrate supports mental tension and relaxation, perfect for those with full calendars or who are juggling many responsibilities. If you struggle with regular bowel movements, magnesium citrate is also known to aid this.

A very common health concern is getting enough, restful sleep on a day to day basis. Magnesium Glycinate can support sleep whether that means going to sleep, getting back to sleep, or staying asleep.

In a highly bioavailable form, Magnesium Chelate supports normal muscle and nerve function. If you are prone to legs that just won’t stop moving at night or spend your days getting up your step count, Magnesium Chelate

Winter’s coming, and with it, shorter days and less time in the sun — which means it’s a good time to check in on your vitamin D levels. ☀️

We get most of our vitamin D from sunlight, so when that’s in short supply, a good supplement can really help.

Lester’s Oil and Lester’s Oil Advanced both contain 1000 IU of vitamin D3 per serve. That’s simple and reliable support for your bone health, heart health and overall well-being.

A good one to have in the cupboard this winter!

Our Story

Our story is a little different to most companies. It all began in 2005 when Dan, the founders, mother Jillian, was not well. Having a serious blood disorder, Jillian had to finish work and couldn’t do a lot of things she wanted to. As well as this, there were severe mobility issues which meant Jillian needed to use a special chair and a grabber stick and was in need of a hip replacement.

Dan set out to help his mum, using his science background. Researching all over the world, he came across resveratrol and all the benefit its research was showing. With the help of his supplier, Dan created a product that he hoped would help his mother. Within a short period, Jillian was moving more freely, no longer needed her special chair or grabber stick, and within a year was completely fine. This encouraged her many art class friends to seek out Dan to get hold of the product he created.

In 2006, Dan saw an opportunity to introduce this product to the many thousands of New Zealander’s who could benefit, and About Health was started. It’s been an interesting road since then, creating products like Lester’s Oil, named after his father, to Multiva, to help kiwi’s who are deficient in quite specific minerals. Each time Dan has set out to create a product it has been with a specific person and problem in mind, showing a genuinely caring nature and need to help, which has lead to an accidental success story.

Since 2006, over 70,000 kiwi’s have tried About Health supplements, with thousands of positive reviews on how About health products have changed their lives. You don’t have to take our word for it, have a read of the reviews, and watch the videos of customer testimonials.
