Amipro / Metagenics South Africa

Our Story

Having had 20 years experience in retail pharmacy and a special interest in complementary medicine, Lorraine Leas was given the insight into the needs of patients, to try and prevent illness rather than cure disease. This gave rise to the vision and philosophy for Amipro. “Because more and more patients are receptive to herbal and complementary medicines, Amipro is able to provide new and innovative products that cater for individuals who wish to improve their quality of life, and for patients who have compromised health conditions and need unique essential nutrients”. The Amipro brand has been very active in the market for over 7 years. Amipro demonstrates its commitment to purity and quality through its association with Metagenics, Inc. a leading developer and manufacturer of natural, science-based nutraceuticals and medical foods sold to healthcare practitioners worldwide. Metagenics was founded in 1983 with the mission to help patients "achieve their genetic potential through targeted nutrition."
