SEATTLE, March 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Persona™, a Nestlé Health Science (NHSc) company and leading personalized vitamin subscription program, now offers international shipping services to more than 60 countries to fulfill a global consumer demand for personalized wellness products and services.

"There is a growing awareness around the world of personalized nutrition. People who are interested in improving their health and quality of life through vitamins and supplements are recognizing that the best way to achieve that is through a plan that it customized for them," said Jason Brown, founder and CEO of Persona. "Persona is now filling the needs of customers in more than 60 countries with high quality vitamins and supplements that are customized to meet their individual needs and lifestyle goals. Making personalized nutrition accessible to help people live healthier and happier lives has always been Persona's main goal.

All overseas customers will be provided the same online nutrition assessment currently offered in the U.S., which considers a person's gender, age, dietary preferences, stress levels, sleep patterns, fitness habits, allergies and other lifestyle factors. In addition, Persona considers the importance of drug-nutrient interactions as it recently announced the expansion of its drug-nutrient database which cross examines more than 2,000 prescription medications to help consumers avoid nutrient depletions and interactions.
