New Chapter offers organic, whole-food, non-GMO vitamins and supplements. The company began nearly 30 years ago, with what they call “The Wisdom of Nature” to those who seek natural wellness.
Along with wellness for the body, New Chapter is committed to sustainable practices in order to maintain our planet’s wellness. In Vermont, 85% of New Chapter’s waste is composted, reused, or recycled. They utilize recycled pens and used office furniture, to name a few. Their 200-acre farm in Costa Rica, Finca Luna Nueva, has been recognized as a world model for their sustainable farming practices and is a recipient of Demeter Certification.
I recently sampled New Chapter’s Perfect Prenatal, Wholemega, and Zyflamend Whole Body.

When I was pregnant with our son in 2010, I had the most nausea of my three pregnancies. I had read reviews of how New Chapter Perfect Prenatal was easy on the stomach and that was a big selling point for me. They had a bit of smell that was somewhat unappealing, but the ease on digestion and increased energy were a great plus since I was already caring for a four-year-old and two-year-old at the time. The tablets were also very easy to swallow. The directions are to take three tablets daily, with or without food.

New Chapter Zyflamend contains a full-spectrum of herbal extracts. Zyflamend Whole Body delivers many powerful compounds with antioxidant properties in this patented herbal protocol. It contains Skullcap, Chinese Goldthread, HuZhang, Barberry, Rosemary, Oregano, Turmeric, Ginger, and Holy Basil, plus many more.
My husband had a moderate to severe sprain with his right wrist recently. I had him try New Chapter’s Zyflamend Whole Body for the last few weeks to see if he noted a change in the amount of his discomfort. He did feel that Zyflamend provided him with increased range of motion with less discomfort.
The Zyflamend brown softgels were very easy for him to ingest. It is recommended to take one softgel two times daily with food. My spouse did note that he had to shake the bottle when using because the softgels had a tendency to stick together.
Nature’s Whole Complement of
Seventeen Omegas – 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9’s
Extra-Virgin Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil
Available in 1000 mg softgels (30, 60, 120, 144, 180 sizes)
New Chapter Wholemega has 17 omega fatty acids found in one of nature’s true superfoods: Wild Alaskan Salmon. A daily serving of New Chapter Wholemega for a week provides the same amount of whole omega fatty acids as three servings of Wild Alaskan Salmon.
The instructions were simple, one softgel, twice daily. For best results, it is recommended to take immediately before your two largest meals of the day. I have a family history of heart disease so fish oil has been brought up in discussion among family members and I feel that I sometimes lack foods high in omegas. I thought the Wholemega softgels were very easy to swallow and had no fishy aftertaste taste or fishy smell. I battle dry skin in the winter and feel Wholemega has helped lessen this issue. My hair seems to be growing a bit faster too.
