Frequently Asked Q’s

How It Works

You have a few options! If you already know what vitamins and supplements you want to take, you can go straight to our products page and build your own pack.

Or, if you are just starting on vitamins and supplements, and want a little help deciding what to take (or are simply curious about how your current regimen stacks up), check out our Health Assessment. You just need to answer a few questions about your diet, lifestyle & health goals, and your personalized recommendations will be ready in minutes!

Each order comes with enough packs to cover you for 30 days, so depending on how often you take your supplements (most of ours are taken twice a day), the total number of packs you get may be between 30 and 60.

Many of our supplements are dosed twice a day to achieve their desired therapeutic outcome which is why most customers will receive a "morning" and an "evening" pack in their order. We recommend taking your morning doses around breakfast time and your evening doses between dinner and bedtime. We do offer a number of supplements however that we do not recommend taking too late in the day, or past 3pm as many people can find these supplements energizing. The last thing we want to do is interrupt a good night's sleep! In these cases, you will notice that your evening packs are actually divided into two separate pouches so that you can take your second dose of these "energizing" supplements between lunch and 3pm, and then take the rest of your doses later in the evening.

Our comprehensive Health Assessment takes into consideration your diet, lifestyle and wellness goals to generate a personalized recommendation, just for you. You can take the Health Assessment, or if you would like to work directly with one of our health care practitioners, you can read more about them and reach out here.

We are so sure that you’ll love the #VitaminsSimplified life, that all of our orders are set up as recurring subscriptions, filled every 30 days. But don’t worry, your subscription is completely flexible and you can cancel or change it at any time by logging into your account or emailing us at [email protected].

Gift cards will be coming soon to the Accessories section of the Products Page.

At the moment, we are only able to safely recommend products to individuals who are between the ages of 18 and 65. While we do not currently sell vitamins or supplements specifically for children or teenagers, it is something that is on our radar for the future.

If you and other eligible family members would like to subscribe, we ask that you use different email addresses to create your personal accounts.

Order Customization

If there is something you would like to take that did not come up as part of your recommendation from the Health Assessment, you can always add it to your pack before checking out by clicking on the Products Page , and adding items directly to your cart from there. Just note that we cannot screen for any interactions or therapeutic duplication if you are adding products this way.

Yes! If you already know what vitamins and supplements you want to take, you can go straight to our products page and build your own pack. Alternatively, if you have gone through the Health Assessment and still want to make some adjustments, you can always delete recommendations from your cart, adjust the quantities, or add to your list by visiting our Products Page.

The key to getting the most out of your supplements is to actually taken them! We recommend keeping your packs in a spot that works with your daily routine, and for many people, that means taking their morning and night packs in different parts of the house. We provide the option to separate your packs into day and night boxes so you can do just that, rather than having them shipped with alternating morning and night packs in the same box.

You can select this option within the Health Assessment or you will also be prompted at Checkout. A small fee applies to this service.

When you add an item to your cart by building your own pack or taking our Health Assessment, the therapeutically appropriate number of pills will be displayed for each vitamin and supplement. If you have an existing regimen, or are working with a health care practitioner who has recommended a different dose, you can edit our proposed quantities and admin times within the cart checkout page. Reach out to us at [email protected] if you have any questions.

Our current product offering is comprised of a carefully curated selection of vitamins and supplements designed to maintain health and wellness. If there is something specific that you are looking for, reach out to us at [email protected].

Product Information

Transparency is key, so you’ll always know exactly what’s in each and every supplement you are getting. We provide a detailed product breakdown of each item we carry on our Products Page where you can find the Supplement Facts, Ingredients, Recommended Use, Dosing and any Cautions or Warnings. You’ll also get a comprehensive listing of all our supplements with the same information on your first order. If you ever lose or misplace your booklet, you can download another copy here.

We take great pride in offering you the best quality vitamins and supplements available today. All of our products are Health Canada Certified with NPN’s, and are GMO-Free. Where possible we strive to source ingredients that are Organic, Soy-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegetarian or Vegan. To find out if a product meets your dietary restrictions, you can check out the product icons listed on each Products Page, or send us an email at [email protected] if you have a specific inquiry.

Our mission is to ensure we are offering you convenient access to the best quality professional brand supplements available on the market today, and are proud to differentiate ourselves this way. As with many things in life, when it comes to supplements, the common statement “you get what you pay for” holds true. Now, that’s not to say that just because it’s more expensive, it's better, but rather, there is a reason why professional line supplements cost more than your standard off the shelf drug store brands.

Even though we offer premium brands, you can expect to see competitive pricing on everything we carry. We work closely with our vendors to ensure we are getting the best price, and will pass those savings on to you.

Call 911 – If you’re experiencing a serious reaction to your supplements, seek medical attention immediately. It’s important to let us know if something doesn't agree with you so we are sure to remove it from your next shipment and make note of it on your account.

If you missed taking a pack, we recommend skipping that dose, then taking your next pack at the assigned time.

The packaging used to ship and dispense your supplements is not childproof and must remain out of the reach of children at all times.

Make sure you store your packs in a cool, dry place below 25 degrees celsius. Packs should not be stored in the fridge, freezer or in the car for long periods of time. It is fine to keep you packs with you in your bag when you are travelling, maybe just don't keep them on the beach all day!

Sustainability is a top priority for us at VTMNPacks, and we try and do our part to limit our impact on the environment, without compromising the safety and efficacy of the vitamins and supplements we are supplying.

The material used for our packs meets the USP guidelines that have been set out to ensure that items stored within the packs “do not interact physically or chemically with the material in a way that causes its safety, identity, strength, quality or purity to fail to conform to established requirements”. In essence, the pack is designed to keep your supplements safe inside and protected from the outside world.

We are constantly working with our suppliers to find the most sustainable options for all our packaging. Our cardboard dispensers are recyclable and are made from a board that is FSC approved and designated as being made from a managed forest. Customers who choose to purchase a reusable dispenser can opt out of being shipped a cardboard box each month. Meanwhile, we continue to work on ways to reduce the amount of cardboard and plastic that is shipped with your order, and always consider this a work in progress.

We share your interest in sustainability and are constantly looking for ways to improve our packaging and minimize our footprint. If you have any ideas you’d like to share with us, send us an email to [email protected].

Very thoughtfully, as not all supplements are created equal! It’s what's inside that counts, which is why we spent countless hours dissecting each and every vitamin and supplement label to make sure we offered you the best of what is available on the market today. And, as with many things in life, when it comes to supplements, the common statement “you get what you pay for” holds true. Now, that’s not to say that just because it’s more expensive, it's better, but rather, there is a reason why professional line supplements cost more than your standard off the shelf drug store brands.

Here are some things that separate professional brands apart, and are non negotiables to us when selecting a supplement:
- It has to contain nutrients in doses that have been studied in clinical trials
- Nutrients have to be present in their activated or most absorbable forms
- There should be no artificial dyes, and additional excipients should be minimal and pronuncable
- It should come in capsule form where therapeutically appropriate, as tablets often have hard to digest binders and fillers
- It should be non-GMO and third party tested for quality and purity
- Bonus if it is also free from top allergens such as gluten, soy, wheat, eggs, dairy, yeast, citrus, preservatives, artificial flavors and sugar

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or in the post partum phase, we always recommend consulting with your primary care practitioner before starting or discontinuing any natural health products.

If you are going to be adding any supplements to your pack, please be sure to refer to the Products Page as we have highlighted supplements that should be avoided and used with caution during this stage.

The Health Assessment

Our Health Assessment asks questions about you, your diet, lifestyle and wellness goals in order to provide you with a personalized recommendation. Find out more about our Health Assessment here.

Our Health Assessment provides the opportunity for you to identify any common allergens that you might have, and our complex algorithm takes this into account when providing your recommendations.

Some supplements can interact with medications, so completing this section to the best of your ability will ensure you are getting the best recommendations. Our list only contains medications that are known to interact with supplements we carry or have the potential to cause a nutrient depletion.

The Health Assessment and recommendations were developed by our founder in conjunction with the bright minds of our Advisory Board. The questions and recommendations are evidenced based and are designed to get a sense of your diet, lifestyle and wellness goals in order to provide you with the best personalized recommendations possible.

It only takes 5 minutes to get your recommendations! Check it out today.
