Mannatech

Mannatech is a global health and wellness company that specializes in the development and distribution of nutritional supplements and skincare products. Founded in 1994, the company is headquartered in Coppell, Texas, and operates in more than 25 countries worldwide.

History

Mannatech was founded by Samuel L. Caster, a successful entrepreneur with a passion for health and wellness. Inspired by the potential of glyconutrients, a group of complex carbohydrates that are believed to play a crucial role in cellular communication, Caster set out to create a company that would harness the power of these nutrients to improve people's health.

Products

Mannatech offers a wide range of products that are designed to support overall health and well-being. Their flagship product, Ambrotose, is a glyconutritional dietary supplement that contains a blend of glyconutrients derived from plant sources. These glyconutrients are believed to support cellular communication and promote optimal health.

In addition to Ambrotose, Mannatech also offers a variety of other nutritional supplements, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and probiotics. They also have a line of skincare products that are formulated with natural ingredients to nourish and rejuvenate the skin.

Research and Development

Mannatech is committed to scientific research and development to ensure the efficacy and safety of their products. They collaborate with leading scientists and researchers to conduct clinical studies and trials to validate the benefits of their products.

Controversies

Mannatech has faced some controversies over the years. In 2007, the company was sued by the Texas Attorney General for making false and misleading claims about the health benefits of their products. The lawsuit resulted in a settlement, and Mannatech agreed to pay a fine and change their marketing practices.

Recognition and Awards

Despite the controversies, Mannatech has received recognition and awards for their products and business practices. They have been featured in various publications and have received accolades for their commitment to quality and innovation.
