Hi Diva 😎

Andrew Lessman founded what was to become ProCaps Laboratories in 1979 – back in what some consider “the early days” of vitamin supplements. Today, it remains one of the few companies that actually manufactures the vitamins it distributes, and the only one in its class for uncompromising quality.
ProCaps Laboratories is still owned by the man who founded it, and his commitment to quality has remained unchanged.
An Early Start for Andrew Lessman
We often accidentally discover our career path as a result of interests we realize early in our childhood. Such is the case with Andrew’s interest in vitamins, which began when he was a very young child seeking to make his pets healthier.
Years later, this interest in the science of nutrition encouraged Andrew to study biochemistry at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was honored as a Benjamin Franklin Scholar, and continue his studies in medicine at the University of Hawaii. Disappointed in medicine because it focused disproportionately on illness and ignored the preservation of health and wellness, he elected to discontinue his medical studies. For Andrew, common sense dictated that health was not merely the treatment of disease, but the prevention of disease before it can even occur.
Determined to find a way to help physicians and institutions change their approach to health, Andrew decided to pursue a law degree and focus his practice on medical and healthcare regulation. Andrew attended Loyola University Law School in Los Angeles, where he received a Juris Doctor Degree and subsequently opened a law practice, focusing on medical legal issues, including food and drug law.
True Passion Changes Andrew Lessman’s Career
Andrew had another passion, beginning in his childhood and continuing throughout his academic career, which exerted an equally significant influence on his endeavors. This other passion was athletics, particularly track and field. Andrew’s focus was the decathlon, which required proficiency at 10 different events and demanded speed, strength, agility and coordination. The intensive training and limited recovery time encouraged Andrew to look to nutrition as a means of improving performance, speeding recovery and preventing injury. In doing so, he found the same aspects of nutrition and biochemistry that ensure optimal athletic performance also directly impact optimal health.
In 1979, while attending Law School and training for the decathlon, Andrew developed a straightforward vitamin regimen that contained performance-enhancing ingredients for elite athletes. At about that time, he also began giving seminars for physicians looking to be more informed in recommending supplements to their patients. Unfortunately, conventional products did not provide the ingredients backed by scientific research, and the quality of those supplements discouraged Andrew from consuming them himself or recommending them to physicians or others. Andrew was left with only one alternative: to formulate his own vitamins and high-quality nutritional supplements that conformed precisely to the scientific literature.
Where and How to Create Vitamins
Designing and manufacturing a high-quality vitamin is not a simple process. It requires a great deal of expense, hard work and experience – which is precisely the reason most companies don’t actually make their own products, but simply market those made for them by contract manufacturers. The caliber of vitamins Andrew sought to take in 1979 was simply not available from any existing company, so he was forced to find a way to make them himself.
Fortunately, while Andrew attended law school, he had worked part-time for a vitamin company that permitted him to create and manufacture his own formulas. In so doing, Andrew developed the unique, additive-free manufacturing process that sets ProCaps apart from the rest of the industry. The incredibly pure and active formulas soon became the favorites of the elite athletes, and interest in Andrew’s products began to grow by word-of-mouth to health professionals as well as the general public. By the late 1980s, Andrew felt encouraged by the public’s increased interest in nutritional supplementation and decided to retire from his law practice to devote himself exclusively to a lifelong dream: to produce the highest quality vitamins in the world and connect with consumers through education.
Starting ProCaps Laboratories
Andrew Lessman’s departure from his law practice in 1989 and his decision to make an ethically-marketed line of vitamins could not have happened at a better time. Multilevel marketing was at its high point and consumers reasonably doubted the outrageous claims and questionable formulations made by the vast majority of supplement marketers. The public was poised for an ethical alternative and was extremely receptive to Andrew’s informed educational approach to supplement marketing and the easy-to-understand, empirical differences in his formulations.
As the years have passed, the vitamin industry continues to be saturated with low quality products that lack credibility and remain decades behind the research. Andrew’s strength is that he has taken the natural, rational approach to manufacturing and marketing: sane, realistic, and intractably honest – and he has presented his audience with the unvarnished truth. It’s an admittedly distinctive approach these days, but Andrew’s success stands as a testament to the power of an unwavering devotion to excellence and honesty.
