New for 2018, we are excited to recognize Pure Vitamin Club as a Major Sponsor of the Badwater 135 Ultramarathon.

PURE VITAMIN CLUB was created by best-selling author, renowned fitness expert, and ultra-athlete Vinnie Tortorich to fill a major gap in the vitamin supplement market. What Vinnie knew was that virtually all supplements on the market are filled with unnecessary and even harmful and toxic ingredients which block absorption of the vitamins and minerals in the supplements, and in some cases cause or contribute to a wide variety of health concerns.  With that in mind, he set out to make the purest and best vitamins and other supplements available anywhere, and to do so at a price that anybody could afford. This led to Pure Vitamin Club which currently offers five unique formulations: the Daily Multicap, Broad Spectrum Magnesium Caps, Sub-Lingual Vitamin B-12 Tabs, Vitamin D3 Plus K Complex, and our newest product, the Ultra Salt Electrolyte Complex. All have zero fillers, flow agents, or other harmful ingredients. Additives and fillers suck: So we don’t use them.
