General Nutrition

Daily nutrition is the foundation of long-term health - supporting the immune system, energy, growth, cognitive performance and more.

Foundational Nutrition for Everyday Health

People no longer see health as the absence of a disease, but as a proactive, day-to-day practice - what we do consistently shapes how we feel and how we show up. At the Unilever Wellbeing Collective, we focus on foundational nutrition that fits real life, pairing daily-use solutions with research that connects everyday lifestyle patterns to measurable markers of wellbeing.

Our recent research looks at how vegan vs. non-vegan diets align with key health markers and visible attributes, using practical, clinician-relevant measures. In healthy women following these diets long-term (≥1 year), we examined standard cardiometabolic indicators alongside assessments of skin appearance and DNA methylation readouts from skin to map connections between what people eat, internal biology and how skin presents - recognizing this is observational evidence rather than proof of causation.

Looking ahead, we’re translating all areas of our research insights into daily-life nutrition solutions, including approachable formats like SmartyPants and OLLY: science-informed formulas and guidance that align with people’s lifestyles - easy to adopt, designed to complement daily self-care, and evaluated against outcomes that matter in clinics and in everyday life.

Unilever Wellbeing Collective brands follow all cGMP standards and brands like SmartyPants, Nutrafol and OLLY obtain third-party certifications for certain products, such as an NSF certification for added assurance. Learn more on our Regulation in Practice page.

Many SmartyPants and OLLY formulas include on-pack statements about the presence or absence of specific allergens - such as gluten free, vegetarian, or kosher - so healthcare professionals can easily verify suitability for individual dietary needs. All label claims are transparently listed on the package, and both brands follow rigorous testing and quality protocols to confirm products meet their “free-from” statements.

In the case of SmartyPants, many products are additionally verified through certifications such as the Clean Label Project Purity Award. This commitment to clean formulations and transparency helps healthcare professionals match products to individual dietary needs.

As everyone is different and, therefore, may have different responses to supplements, we always advise consumers to use our products as directed and intended after consulting with their physician, especially if they are on prescription medications, are taking other supplements, have underlying medical conditions or have any general concerns.

Both brands offer kid-friendly gummies made with taste, safety, and age-appropriate nutrient levels in mind. SmartyPants provides popular multis like Kids Formula, Kids Formula & Fiber and Toddler Formula, while OLLY makes options such as Kids Sleep and Teen Girl Multi. These two brands help families support daily wellness and healthy habits from an early age.
