Why Choose Vita?
Every herb we sell at Vita Herbal Nutrition is non-sulphur treated and chosen for use in the kitchen and in traditional preparation.
We proudly offer a 100% sulphur-free range of herbs. Many companies use sulphur to improve the appearance and longevity of herbs, but this process can compromise the herb’s natural integrity and may cause allergic reactions in some individuals.
We follow the DaoDi principle of choosing each herb from the area traditionally associated with it, and we have worked with the same supply partners since 2010.
