A medical education from Dnipro State Medical University gives me a grounded understanding of physiology, pharmacology basics, and how supplements interact with the body — knowledge I apply when researching and fact-checking every guide published on VitMax.
With over nine years of hands-on experience in the health and wellness e-commerce space, I've managed large product catalogues, worked directly with supplement formulations and ingredient sourcing, and built VitMax UK to help British readers make informed, evidence-based decisions about supplements — free from hype or unproven claims.
Every article on VitMax is checked against current research and UK/EU regulatory guidance before publication.
