With a health-first approach, we at Amway are committed to empowering individuals to take control of their health and wellbeing and focus on enhancing their healthspan—living not just longer, but healthier lives.”

    Backed by 90 years of nutrition science, Triple Protect champions Amway’s seed-to-supplement philosophy, combining bioavailability with sustainability. With 40 mg of turmeric extract (equivalent to 50 times raw turmeric) and 167 mg of licorice extract (equal to six times the raw stuff), the formulation cuts no corners. No artificial colours, flavours, or preservatives — just clean, potent plant power.

    As Indian consumers lean into proactive health and preventive care, Amway is angling to be their supplement of choice.
