Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. (NYSE: NUS), a global leader in beauty and wellness, today announced it has reached the milestone of providing 900 million meals for children since 2002 through its Nourish the Children initiative.

“It is amazing to think of 900 million meals when you imagine the difference we have made in the lives of so many children around the world,” said Ryan Napierski, Nu Skin president and CEO. “And we’re not done – we continue to feed 75,000 children each day as we set our sights on 1 billion meals. As we look to the future, we’re committed to building on this momentum by leveraging our innovation and global community to nourish not only children, but to help people everywhere look, feel and live better.”

About VitaMeal

Unlike simple grains with a mostly caloric benefit, VitaMeal is a nutrient-dense food scientifically formulated to meet the nutritional needs of malnourished children. As part of the overall development of VitaMeal, Nu Skin's nutritional scientists determined the ingredients and ratios that are well suited for a malnourished child. The result is a product that provides essential vitamins and minerals, with a balance of carbohydrates, protein, fat and fiber.

About Nourish the Children

In 2002, Nu Skin took action to address the tragedy of childhood hunger and malnutrition with the development of the Nourish the Children initiative with a highly nutritious food known as VitaMeal, developed by Nu Skin's nutritional scientists. The company's sales leaders, customers and employees can purchase VitaMeal and designate it for donation to a third-party nonprofit organization that specializes in distributing relief to those suffering from malnutrition and famine.
