Best raw materials, highest bioavailability and certified production, exclusively in Germany, are the basis for a claim to premium quality. The company offers to its customers a well thought-out concept with the highest quality products for health, well-being, weight loss and beauty.

Founders

Mara Kaiser-Kleespies and Marion Siegle are behind the German nutritional supplement brand itsme.now. The two power women are convinced that everyone can actively take their life into their own hands and grow with the demands of everyday life, school and work, regardless of age, figure or appearance. There is always a little more than one thinks can do. It just needed to be willing to change some things in life. The setting. The habits. The schedule. Sometimes just a little more awareness of one thing or another is enough to achieve greater well-being, balance and productivity. Of course, the topic of nutrition should be at the top of the list. But what gives us humans energy and should be the most efficient fuel is most often neglected. This is where the nutritional supplement concept from itsme.now can provide perfect support by helping to optimize inner strength and physical performance. Well thought-out and high-quality products complement the diet in a targeted manner and can be perfectly harmonized with daily challenges. The two founders place special emphasis on the trust of their customers and the premium quality of their supplements, which are produced exclusively in Germany.  

 

Mara Kaiser-Kleespies

Born in Göppingen, studies in Munich. Already stood on Mount Kilimanjaro as well as at the finish line of the Munich Marathon. In other words: She knows her inner pig personally. She has already experienced several times what one is capable of when mental power and an optimally supplied body work perfectly together. Experiences that were too good not to share. That's why she has made it her mission to support others in this process and is now contributing all her experience to the development of itsme.now.

Marion Siegle

Grew up in Bielefeld, studied in Paderborn. Loves skiing, red wine, humor and her family. Her daily mission: to balance job, pleasure and health. A constant multitasking challenge from which she derives real quality of life that can't be topped. That's what drives her. Now also helping others with itsme.now is the job she always wanted. Above all, to show that personal goals are not lost sight of in everyday life and that you can realize every day how much more value a life according to your own ideas is.

Brand

The brand's goal is one's well-being

itsme.now is a brand of Die NEMs GmbH. It is a distribution company with an extensive portfolio of high-quality nutritional supplements. What sets the team apart is the care with which it develops, produces, fills and ships the products to its customers in Germany. All of the products, whether natural vitamins, valuable mineral supplements, weight loss shakes or superfood drinks are vegan, pure, gluten-free and certified.

The company's versatile team consists of experts from the fields of nutrition, nutritional supplements, physiotherapy and alternative medicine. Together they develop products with know-how, a lot of passion and above all out of personal conviction, which has been successfully established on the German market for over 15 years.

They want to help their customers achieve a balance between the demands of everyday life and the needs of the body. This includes a balanced diet, regular exercise and sufficient sleep. But this balance is often not possible in everyday life. Here it makes sense to strengthen the body with high-quality nutritional supplements in a planned and targeted manner.

The company can proudly say: itsme.now is a clear, self-confident lifestyle brand for contemporary nutritional supplements in the premium segment. It offers every customer a holistic, well-rounded product experience of health, well-being and beauty. After all, once people have become aware of the value of their own health, they want to do something about it. Of course, they can't change everything at once. But what counts is the beginning - and that can always be: for example, now. This is exactly the philosophy of itsme.now.

Story

Sometimes it takes a nudge to know if you're going the right way. Marion Siegle helped one of her two cats get going. The male cat, just a few months old, suddenly couldn't walk, his back legs constantly buckling. "We ran from clinic to clinic, from vet to vet, paid a bunch of money. But no one could help." A doctor finally advised Siegle and her husband to get carnitine and coenzyme Q10 and sprinkle them in the animal's food. "It didn't take a week," Siegle swears, "and the cat was moving again, becoming more and more agile, and after ten days the matter was eaten." For Siegle, this is an indication that dietary supplements can work, "because the cat doesn't know about the placebo effect."

She herself also overcame temporary sleeping problems with the help of amino acids and co. and is happy about firmer connective tissue. However, she had hardly dealt with this topic before. "The topic of nutritional supplements was more Mara's thing. She's always read a lot about it and is super knowledgeable." Siegle, on the other hand, is "the type who has to try something out and experience it for herself. And I felt that it changed many things in my body for the better."

Kleespies' interest and Siegle's experience had consequences: They founded the company Die NEMs GmbH and created the brand "itsme.now." The two friends have known each other since the 1990s. Both worked for the same Munich-based company for a good 20 years - Kleespies in e-commerce, Siegle in the press department. Colleagues quickly became good friends and business partners.

Now, the idea of selling nutritional supplements is not necessarily new. The industry is huge, and the competitive pressure great. In fact, some friends and acquaintances shook their heads. "Quite brave. How can you quit your secure jobs and get involved in a business like this,' many asked us," Siegle says. But the two friends were convinced that with their products, which were developed by experts and manufactured in Germany, they could "not only keep up with the market," but even stand out thanks to their high-quality standards and good price-performance ratio. Because a versatile team around the two founders consisting of specialists in the fields of nutrition, nutritional supplements, physiotherapy and naturopathy develops with know-how, a lot of passion and above all out of personal conviction products that perfectly complement the diet with all important nutrient concentrates.

The fact that some nutritionists and physicians doubt the necessity of food supplements in Western civilization, where every kind of food can be bought, does not bother the two friends. Theoretically, this is true, says Kleespies, "if you were to shove a home-grown carrot straight from the field into your mouth unprocessed."  But even then, constant use and overuse of the same agricultural land over a period of centuries has resulted in foods that are extremely poor in nutrients. The loss of vitamin A in apples, for example, has decreased by over 40% since the 1970s! Brand's highly cultivated vegetables contain only a fraction of vitamins and nutrients. Siegle also points out the necessary need for protein, which many people today want to cover only to a small extent through meat products.

This is where her amino acid product, which is "100 percent vegan," comes in. The two entrepreneurs are convinced of the quality of their products in the stylish, black-metallic cans anyway: They are constantly checked by certified laboratories, says Kleespies, "after all, these are products that we give to our children and take ourselves. Something else is important to her: "Our products can be combined with each other in any way, without overdosing any ingredient, for example zinc." The company completely avoids preservatives, artificial sweeteners and flavors, gluten, lactose, wheat, soy, milk ingredients, egg and the controversial magnesium stearates.

The start-up company's driving force is its aminolife system. Siegle explains how it works. "We actually have something there that no one else has! The basis is L-Amino Basix. It contains all 8 L-amino acids that the body cannot produce itself, but urgently needs every day to form vital proteins (albumin). Thus, an optimal protein supply is guaranteed and all nutrients reach the cells better and faster. This basis combined with other valuable vitamins, minerals and trace elements then makes the whole thing really efficient and really gets the body going!"
