Our Origins

Family, Integrity and Innovation

Designs for Health Australia launched into the practitioner market three years ago and has quickly become the fastest-growing practitioner company in Australia. But the DFH story started long before this; The DFH story began in 1989 in the USA as a family-owned company offering nutritional and educational services to healthcare practitioners.

Three decades later, DFH is a leading practitioner brand across the world, including Australia; and remains committed to the integrity of our products, research, customers, and family values.

Here in Australia, the DFH team consists of degree qualified naturopaths and nutritionists from our regulatory team to the marketing, sales, and education team. With many years of experience in the healthcare industry behind us, here at DFH, we understand practitioners ' unique needs and have practitioners as the focus of all that we do.

Our Products

Innovation

Here at DFH our research and product development team are always searching for efficacious ingredients to hero in our products. Whether it be newly discovered ingredients or ingredients heavily backed by clinical research, we work tirelessly to ensure the products we bring to market are of the highest quality and are ingredients that will deliver the results our practitioners desire.

Delivery Systems

Being committed to our Science-First philosophy, the research team at Designs for Health has pioneered the development of several unique delivery systems; Evail Technolgy and Lipocelle Technology. These unique delivery systems improve the bioavailability of traditionally hard to absorb ingredients, such as berberine, curcumin and glutathione.

The development of these unique delivery systems is just another example of our passion to provide you with the most efficacious product for better patient outcomes.

Excipients

You have learnt what we like to include in our products, now it’s time to talk about what we don’t include in our products. Many products on the market contain undesirable excipient ingredients (non-active ingredients) from Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) which binds inmportant minerals deeming them unusable to talcum powder, believe it or not,these ingredients can be found in complementary medicines. Here at Designs for Health we are clear on what we don’t want in our products and work closely with our manufacturing partners to achieve products with minimal and clean excipients. 

Our Range

We have worked hard to bring you a foundational range of products, that are the mainstay of clinical practice, with a focus on digestive products. Currently, we have 33 products in our range and more being added each year.

Some of our hero products include:

• Whole Body Collagen
• GI Revive
