The Idea That Changed Everything
It started with powdered capsicum, a time-honored herb that Gene Hughes hoped to use for his own digestive health. Discovering quickly that a spoonful of capsicum was neither tasty nor convenient, Gene was in need of an innovator. Naturally, he turned to his wife, Kristine. Her solution: Capsules!
It may seem simple today—filling capsules with herbs for holistic, daily use—but that kitchen table endeavor in 1972 sparked Nature's Sunshine, the first company encapsulating herbs, making the power of nature more accessible and convenient for anyone, anywhere. Together, the Hughes became pioneers of the modern supplement industry.
