For more than 30 years, Reliv has worked with the top scientists and doctors around the country to provide the best nutritional supplements available. And it all started with one formula that would change the health of people around the world. Dr. Theodore "Ted" Kalogris created the company's first patented core nutrition formula: Reliv Classic®.

"Be ashamed to die until you have scored a victory for mankind," Dr. Ted's father advised him when he was still young, a motto that inspired Dr. Ted to start on a mission to help combat hunger. It was this vision and drive that would later inspire the creation of the Reliv KalogrisFoundation- a non-profit organization dedicated to providing optimal nutrition to those who need it most.

It's tough to get a patent, but even more difficult to patent a food product. Dr. Carl W. Hastings broke that barrier.

Dr. Hastings joined Reliv shortly after its founding in 1988 and has been honored for his role in developing research capabilities that help produce groundbreaking scientific products, as well as his role in strengthening Reliv's reputation for innovation. He developed a comprehensive line of nutritional supplements and earned nine product patents.
