We've come so far yet only just begun
BR founded
Three partners decided to revolutionize the supplement and cosmetic industries, focusing on real science and research. They started in Draper, Utah with 10 employees, but with big dreams to positively impact people’s quality of life.
Launched first product
Development of the first “true” ECA stack based on studies at Harvard University contributed to the launch of our first product, ThermoGenics Plus. It was sold to independent channels, including health food stores.
Broadened product offering
We conducted rigorous research on a propriety blend to support the thyroid and launched Thyro Support (later named ThyroStart). It quickly became our #1-selling product. Thanks to its success, we opened a call center for direct-to-consumer selling to keep up with customer demand.
Revolutionized the skincare industry
Created StriVectin®-SD, the “stretch-mark cream turned anti-wrinkle phenomenon.” It was a blockbuster success and BR's first product to go international.
America's #1 “Belly Fat” pill
Originally developed as a stress-reducing “feel good pill,” our Relacore® EXTRA supplement soared in popularity as the link between stress and belly fat gained media attention.
Launched the wildly popular non-ephedra “diet pill with a kick”
Launched Zantrex-3, one of the most powerful non-ephedra diet pills on the market, u under the company name Zoller Laboratories. It supported both rapid weight loss and increased energy—and showed more than 2x more weight loss than one of the industry's leading diet pills.
First non-traditional sponsor of NHRA
We put an innovative twist on marketing with a unique sponsorship of the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA). Top fuel racing is all about energy and rapid results, so it was the perfect advertising venue for Zantrex-3.
Targeted skincare solutions
From the success of StriVectin, we created Bremenn Research Labs, a unique skincare brand with proven results for people seeking various skin and body care solutions.
Lead the hGH revolution
BR ushered in the human growth hormone (hGH) revolution with the hGH-boosting formula, SeroVital®-hgh. SeroVital-hgh created a new category in the marketplace and has sold over 4 million boxes since launch.
Energy Innovator Award from Salt Lake City Mayor's Office
Added 4,700 solar panels to company headquarters to generate approximately 1.4 megawatts of non-polluting solar energy. This increased our Energy Star rating from 10 to 99.
Nutrition Business Journal’s Top 50 US Dietary Supplement Companies
BR was recognized by the Nutrition Business Journal as one of the Top 50 US Dietary Supplement Companies by Supplement Sales.
Wellness is empowerment. It’s essential for people to live their best lives.
It’s a simple idea that has a big impact in making the world a better place.
