Choosing the best food supplement brand is easier than comparing hundreds of products one by one. A serious brand is serious across its whole range: it shows its forms, its doses and the origin of its ingredients, and it follows European rules on health claims. Here are seven brands widely available in France, each with its strengths and the profile it suits.

Why choose a brand rather than a product
A brand is judged on its whole range. One that states the exact form of a mineral, the dose per serving and the maker of its raw materials usually does so on all its products. It saves time: once you have chosen the brand, you can build your routine without starting over at every purchase.
In France, food supplements are overseen by the DGCCRF1, which points out that they are not medicines and cannot claim to prevent or treat a disease. The only health claims allowed are those in the EU register2.
What matters when choosing
- The ingredients: the form (bisglycinate, citrate, monohydrate) and the dose per serving, and branded ingredients where there are any.
- The focus of the range: health first (vitamins, minerals, omega-3, collagen) or sport first (protein, creatine).
- A clear label: full composition, additives listed, compliant claims.
- The origin: country of the brand and place of manufacture when it is disclosed.
- The price per dose, more telling than the price of the tub.
These pointers are detailed in the guide on how to choose a food supplement brand.
1. Nutripure, between health and sport
Nutripure is a French brand founded in 2018 by two brothers, Christophe and Florent Carrio. Christophe Carrio, five-time world champion in artistic karate and author of 26 books, sets the specifications of the products. Florent Carrio, an engineer by training, runs the industrial side. The brand made its name in sport, and its range now also covers everyday health: multivitamins and minerals, magnesium combined with taurine and vitamin B6, omega-3, collagen.
Its key features
- Branded ingredients in its flagship products: Creapure creatine monohydrate, Peptan collagen and EPAX omega-3. These raw materials come from identified manufacturers, which makes traceability easy to read.
- A range that covers health and sport: you can build a consistent routine with a single brand, from omega-3 to magnesium and creatine.
- A commitment to transparency on composition, with the full list of ingredients and additives shown on the label.
For creatine, the Creapure mention on the label is a simple quality marker to look for. To learn more about this ingredient, the creatine fact sheet details its authorised claim and dose.
The other brands and their strengths
2. Nutri&Co, a very extensive health range
Nutri&Co is a French brand founded in 2017 in Aix-en-Provence, focused on nutraceuticals, meaning supplements aimed at health. Its range covers a very large number of needs: vitamins, minerals, omega-3, collagen, but also sleep, digestion and immunity. It is a natural choice if everyday health is your priority and you want to find a product for each need from the same brand.
3. Nutrimuscle, protein expertise since 1993
Founded in France in 1993, Nutrimuscle is one of the oldest French weight training supplement brands. It states that it produces its proteins in its own factory, located in Belgium, and it was one of the first to offer native whey. For strength athletes who want proteins from a production process controlled from start to finish, it is a solid brand.
4. Novoma, French manufacturing
Novoma is a French brand founded in 2012 in Toulouse, previously known as Nutrivita. Its range focuses on health and wellness (vitamins, minerals, collagen), and manufacturing in France is at the heart of its message. It suits you if the French origin of your supplements matters to you.
5. Eric Favre, sport and wellness in pharmacies
The Eric Favre brand was launched in 2007 by the Les 3 Chênes laboratory, founded in 1993 in the Monts du Lyonnais. It covers sports nutrition and wellness, with a strong presence in pharmacies. It is a good option if you prefer to buy your supplements from a pharmacy, with a pharmacist’s advice.
6. MyProtein, a very wide catalogue
MyProtein is a British brand founded in 2004, part of the THG group since 2011. Its strength is a very wide sports nutrition catalogue, with many formats and flavours, at affordable prices. It is well suited to simple products such as whey or creatine bought on a regular basis.
7. Bulk, affordable prices for sport
Bulk is a British brand that has been selling online since 2005. It focuses on affordable prices for everyday sports nutrition products. Like MyProtein, it is handy for the basic products you use every day.

For a health and sport routine
If you exercise regularly and also want to cover your basic needs, Nutripure lets you group everything together: omega-3, magnesium, collagen and creatine, with identified raw materials. The magnesium fact sheet and the collagen fact sheet help you choose the right form and dose.
For everyday health
Nutripure and Nutri&Co cover most everyday needs. Nutri&Co stands out for the breadth of its products for specific needs such as sleep or digestion.
Practical tips before choosing
Whatever the brand, keep the right habits: start from a real need, make sure the claim appears in the EU register, read the form and the dose on the label, and compare the price per dose. The guide to food supplements and their regulation details these rules, and the page on vitamin and mineral needs helps you spot what is really missing from your plate.
This ranking compares brands, not treatments. A food supplement does not replace a varied diet and does not cure any disease. If you are on medication, pregnant or breastfeeding, ask a health professional before taking one.
