Founder and Managing Director

Blair Norfolk
Blair Norfolk is our go-to health guru and brilliant day-to-day leader, ensuring that the team and company thrive. As one of our founders, Blair has a deeply personal belief in Activated Nutrients products – he’s seen the difference they can make.
Before Activated Nutrients, Blair earned his Bachelors of Commerce and Masters of Marketing, going on to work all over the world as a consultant marketing strategist. But when he was diagnosed with two incurable autoimmune diseases, he set off on a mission to improve his health.
That mission reinforced Blair’s belief that wholefoods have incredible healing power and revealed the market’s lack of high quality, wholefood supplements.

Honest
In an age of information overload, companies usually rely on getting customers by selling a dream. We don't have to hide behind dream. All we're selling is the right ingredients in the right quantities, presented with nothing but honesty. We can't wait to share it with you!
Sustainable
But you're not the only thing we care about. We also believe that we have a responsibility to produce Activated Nutrients sustainably. We built those concerns into our production, including recycled packaging that uses 40% less energy across the product life cycle, and responsibly -sourced ingredients.
Natural
We also wanted to bring you a supplement that provides the maximum amount of natural nutrition. Activated Nutrients supplements are completely non-synthetic and contain nutrients in nutritionally relevant quantities, plus they're vegan, non-GMO, soy-free and gluten-free
activated.life
Our story began as four friends with a shared passion for health and a frustration with the misleading mess of the mainstream nutrition industry. That passion turned into a mission to cut through the hype and develop a plant-based product that offers real, measurable health benefits.
They did things right, investing years of research and development before launching a single product. Activated Nutrients’ flagship product, Daily Superfood, was the first of its kind – a doctor-formulated, gender-specific all-in-one multivitamin powder made entirely with wholefoods.
