Clicks Launches Online Tool to Help You Find Out What Supplements You Need

Everyone under the sun seems to be taking supplements every morning, but how do you know you’re taking the right ones? South African pharmacy chain Clicks is trying to help people work out what they need by launching a new online tool to narrow down what supplements could help your day-to-day.

Developed by a team of nutritionists and dieticians, the Clicks Supplement Recommender identifies health, lifestyle and behavioural factors associated with nutrition and health outcomes to generate supplement recommendations specifically for you.

“Whilst it is ideal to have a varied and healthy diet, we know we do not always eat as healthily as we should. If you aren’t eating a varied diet, it may be appropriate to consider a vitamin or supplement to support your particular requirements,” says Rachel Wrigglesworth, Clicks Chief Healthcare Officer. “As a trusted healthcare provider, we are excited to offer this convenient, easy-to-use tool as part of our commitment to supporting our customers on their wellness journey.”

The Clicks Supplement Recommender assessment only takes 5 minutes, and it reviews key factors such as stress levels, exercise, sleep patterns and more to identify which vitamins and supplements your body might be lacking. A personalised product bundle is then created especially for you.

“Customers will be able to spend their supplement budget more effectively based on tailor-made advice suited to their individual wellness goals,” Wrigglesworth says.

You can choose to have your vitamin and supplement recommendations delivered to your door; with online orders over R600 delivered at no cost. Alternatively, your parcel can be packed and ready for you to collect at a Clicks store of your choice or you can have your recommendation e-mailed to you for ease of purchase in store at a later stage.
