Youngevity was founded in 1996 by Dr. Joel Wallach , DVM, ND.

It is a debt-free company receiving the highest financial rating available from Dun and Bradstreet.

It is the first and only network marketing company ever to get the FDA to change their regulations in favor of nutrition, most noticeably through authorized nutrient health claims. These claims allow Youngevity to officially link specific nutrients with specific diseases.

Youngevity has been proudly listed in "The Physicians' Desk Reference" since 2002. This reference is used by physicians to review and recommend products to their patients.

Youngevity has expanded to acquire a number of companies. Through these acquisitions, it is further increasing the long term stability as well as the growth opportunities for the distributors of all its companies.
