OUR INDUSTRY

About the complementary medicines industry

Complementary medicines encompass a wide range of products, from vitamins and minerals to herbal remedies and traditional medicines like Ayurveda and Chinese medicine. Over three-quarters of households use these complementary medicines. This reflects a growing emphasis on preventative health and wellbeing, driven by factors such as an ageing population, increasing chronic diseases, and a desire for natural health solutions.
