Our 2024 “Habits and Healthspan” survey pulls back the curtain on the disconnect between what we know and what we need to do in order to improve our healthspan. While most folks have heard of ‘lifespan,’ it’s important to understand the distinction between that and our ‘healthspan.’ Amway scientist and registered dietitian, Holiday Durham, PhD, MS, RD joined Matt Barbour of WJRT, Inc. ABC12 Good Morning Mid-Michigan to discuss this difference and explain that forming healthy habits is crucial to extending our healthspan. Check out the clip!

It’s another goal for downtown Grand Rapids, and Amway helped kick it through the net.   We are proud to be named the title sponsor of the new Amway Stadium, a professional outdoor soccer stadium slated to break ground in the heart of our hometown next spring.   The 8,500-seat Amway Stadium will anchor the dynamic revitalization of the riverfront on Grand Rapids’ westside. In addition to becoming the future home of professional soccer in West Michigan, the high-performing, multi-purpose sports venue will serve youth, high school, and collegiate clubs communitywide.   Driving economic growth and development has always been at the heart of the Amway story. This latest chapter is especially meaningful, as Amway Stadium is expected to draw 17 national and international professional competitions; more than 50 community-based tournaments and events; and 160,000 visitors to downtown Grand Rapids each season. Not to mention create 330 new full-time jobs and generate $408 million in net new economic impact for the city.   The Amway investment, combined with other philanthropic commitments, catapults the Grand Action 2.0 Next Wave campaign over 80% toward its goal for private donations, too.   “For 65 years, Amway has been dedicated to investing in the people and success of our local community,” says Amway President & CEO Michael Nelson. “Transformative projects like the Amway Stadium are a testament to the pride we have in our hometown, and our commitment to shaping the growth of West Michigan and beyond for generations to come.”  The inaugural match at Amway Stadium is anticipated in the spring of 2027. #AmwayStadium #Amway #AmwayLife #GrandRapids #WestMichigan #WeAreAmway

A new study featured in Medical News Today highlights the link between low calcium and magnesium levels and poorer cognitive performance in older adults. These findings underscore how essential these nutrients may be in supporting our cognitive health as we age. In this article, Nikky Contractor PhD, global R&D leader at Amway, shares accessible sources of calcium and magnesium that we can find in everyday foods. Dairy products like milk and yogurt provide calcium, while pumpkin seeds and leafy greens are rich in magnesium. For those who prefer plant-based options, soy-based foods, chia seeds, and fortified plant milks are valuable alternatives.

We are pleased to announce the results of the 2024 “Habits and Healthspan” survey which reveals incorrect assumptions and gaps between intent and behavior as U.S. adults 18 to 70 years old struggle to incorporate consistent healthy habits into their daily routine. Nutritional supplements such as vitamins, minerals and botanical products are a staple in most households, with 77% of surveyed adults taking at least one supplement daily. However, despite this widespread use, nearly half of respondents – 47% – mistakenly believe that the FDA approves these products before they are sold to the public.  To read a further summary of the results from the “Habits and Healthspan” study, which includes a look at Americans facing gut health issues and healthy habits that impact our healthspan, visit AmwayGlobal.com or click the link below. #ConsumerHealth #Sustainability #Traceability #WeAreAmway #Health #HabitsAndHealthspanSurvey

We are deeply saddened by the devastation in Eastern Spain caused by the massive flooding last week. This disaster, the deadliest Spain has faced in decades, has tragically taken more than 200 lives and affected thousands more. In response, Amway is making an immediate donation of €40,000 (~$44,000 USD) to the Spanish Red Cross. If you are interested in joining the relief efforts, contributions made through our Spanish Red Cross microsite through November 27 will be matched by Amway, up to €10,000 (~$11,000 USD). Additionally, we are donating 12,000 units of essential nutrition products—including XS™ protein bars, BodyKey by Nutrilite™ meal replacement bars and BodyKey™ shakes—to the Valencia Food Bank to aid those in need in the affected areas. Right now, we have no reports of employees impacted by this disaster, however we are aware of a small number of Amway Business Owners who are experiencing challenges. Our thoughts are with everyone impacted through this tragic event. Donate now at the link below. #WeAreAmway

It’s peace of mind, in the palm of your hand.   Meet the Amway Tracing Tool, a new digital experience offering next-level product and ingredient traceability exclusively for key Nutrilite™ and Artistry™ products.   With a mobile device or computer, consumers can now get the proof they desire and deserve that Amway products are clean, safe, high-quality and responsibly made – so, ultimately, they can make more informed choices about what they put in or on their bodies.   “Traceability now ranks in the top three purchase drivers globally among consumers who prioritize transparency,” says Lindsay Pott, manager of Amway brand, sustainability, and traceability. “Consumers are increasingly dissatisfied with relying on a list of ingredients they don’t understand to tell them whether a product will safely do what it promises. Our Tracing Tool puts validated traceability into the palm of your hand.”   In a few taps, the Amway Tracing Tool provides access to behind-the-scenes product creation, including the science, ingredients, manufacturing, packaging, distribution, sustainability, and safety and quality testing. The tool is even enriched with 24/7 livestreaming from Amway farms, photos, and “birth certificates” detailing the life of crops used in the product, from seed to supplement.   To ensure authenticity, we collaborated with Respect Code, a third-party traceability platform created and administered by Product DNA, a global expert in traceability. Sharing these details on a third-party validated platform honors consumers’ needs to establish trust before they buy.   Curious?
