PVM Nutritional Sciences

At PVM, we are driven by our passion for science – the search for an objective truth, empirical certainty and honesty. We also know that wise nutrition contributes directly to people’s better health, well-being and performance. PVM stands for Proteins, Vitamins & Minerals. The company was established in the late 1960’s as a result of intensive scientific research undertaken by the National Institute of Food Research of the CSIR (Council for Scientific and Industrial Research). As a result, PVM Nutritional Sciences became one of the first companies to manufacture clinical nutritional products to combat severe malnutrition and produced the World’s Original Energy Bar®, based on an earlier product devised to provide essential energy and nutrition for military personnel in combat. Wholesome balanced nutrition is a precondition for all metabolic processes in the human body. Nutrition encompasses life – giving energy enabling people to actualise and fulfil their potential as human beings, resulting in a satisfying and meaningful existence. We regard nutritional supplements as complementary to a lifestyle including balanced eating habits on a daily basis.
