Informing the development of this product was my own history of struggling with these issues, he said.

We were extremely excited about the standardized content of 10% vanilloids," he added.

PLT Health Solutions is the exclusive sales and marketing partner for Vanizem in North America.

According to Steve Fink, Vice President of Marketing for PLT Health Solutions, Blue Toad is an exciting and innovative company in the health and wellness space. "The team at Blue Toad 'get' what self-care through the use of botanicals is all about. They were one of the first companies that recognized the potential for Vanizem.
