Taking multivitamins is recommended to maintain general health, especially during long periods of fasts, such as the month of Ramadhan. Launched for the first time in the UAE, Muslims can now enjoy scientifically formulated Halal Vitamins thanks to NoorVitamins health supplements.

NoorVitamins are scientifically formulated, Halal certified vitamins manufactured in FDA-certified facilities in the USA by Noor Pharmaceuticals.

A concern for Muslims is that many vitamin brands available on the market often contain non-halal animal source ingredients such as gelatin, and other ingredients.

Noor Pharmaceuticals has partnered with HSA International group in the UAE to launch NoorVitamins in the region just in time for Ramadhan 2013.

The Noor Vitamins range consists of the first-ever, scientifically-formulated, Halal vitamins for health conscious Muslim families and includes several types of vitamins for all age groups. Recent medical literature recommends vitamins for all adults and children and it is even more important to take such vitamins during Ramadhan because food and drink intake (especially fruits, vegetables, and liquids) is limited for Muslims.

This range will be available on treehuggercompany.com immediately with plans to make the products available in leading nutrition stores in the UAE this year. A concern for Muslims is that many vitamin brands available on the market often contain non-Halal animal source ingredients such as gelatin, and other ingredients.

In fact, some vitamins themselves (Vitamin A, E, D, and K) may come from non-Halal sources. Even the tablet coating or the capsule shell may come from animal sources that may not be Halal.

“There is a huge need for high-quality Halal vitamins for Muslims, and the NoorVitamins range fills this gap in the market place,” said Samia Khan, Director of HSA International Group in Dubai. She added, “We have been looking to bring only the highest quality products to our customers here in the UAE and our partnership with Noor Pharmaceuticals enables this mission.”

The NoorVitamins range includes Multivitamin, children’s multivitamin, Vitamin D, calcium, prenatal and omega 3 supplements. Special Ramadhan discounts on the NoorVitamins products are now available made on all orders made through treehuggercompany.com.
