Summary

Overview

Nutritheke is a German brand of dietary supplements made by 11A Nutritheke GmbH, a small company based in Röttenbach, Germany [3]. Sold under the name "Nutritheke Green Line", the range covers vitamins, minerals, amino acids and plant and mushroom extracts rather than cosmetics, although a handful of its products sit close to the beauty aisle, among them biotin, hyaluronic acid and silica capsules.

The company presents itself through a short set of promises: as few industrial additives as possible, full declaration of ingredients, testing by independent German laboratories and production in Germany [2]. Its tagline, "Natürlich das Reinste", translates roughly as "naturally the purest". The brand is active and trades mainly through its own German-language webshop.

Ownership

Nutritheke is operated by 11A Nutritheke GmbH, a German limited liability company entered in the commercial register at the district court of Fürth under HRB 12853 [3]. A German business database describes the company's registered purpose as the sale and dispatch of products for health care, for the prevention and treatment of illness, and for dietary supplementation, and classifies it as a small enterprise [6]. The same source lists a share capital of €25,000 and a balance-sheet total of about €1.8 million for 2023.

The company is run by its managing directors, as listed in the imprint. No parent company, outside investor or acquisition history is publicly documented, and no sister brands are known.

The company's website has no history, founder or press pages, and no founding story has been published. Its legal identity is set out in the imprint, which gives the Röttenbach address, telephone and fax numbers and a German VAT identification number.

Philosophy & positioning

Nutritheke's stated philosophy is short and centres on purity and transparency. On its philosophy page the company says it develops supplements "in top quality" while avoiding industrial additives and processing aids as far as possible, and that it declares 100 percent of its ingredients [2]. For the Green Line range specifically, it says raw materials are processed with gentle manufacturing methods and checked by independent German laboratories before the products are shipped.

The brand also positions itself on value. According to the company, the Green Line offers a wide selection of micronutrients and trace elements "at absolutely fair prices", and it highlights the words "MADE IN GERMANY" in capitals. Manufacturing in Germany is the only production location the company names.

The tone of this positioning is functional. The website is organised as a plain catalogue with a separate philosophy page, a service hotline and an imprint, and links to no social media channels.

Products & innovation

The catalogue on the company's website lists 249 products [4]. Most are single-ingredient products named after their active substance and dose, such as Vitamin B3 15 mg, Zink 15 Picolinat, Magnesiumglycinat or Coenzym Q10 120 mg. The range spans the B vitamins, vitamin D3 in strengths from 500 to 7,000 international units (several of them labelled vegan), vitamin K1 and K2, iron, selenium, iodine and other trace elements.

A large part of the range is given over to amino acids and plant extracts. Products include L-tryptophan, L-tyrosine, taurine and glycine; herbal extracts such as ashwagandha, rhodiola, boswellia, curcuma with pepper extract and saffron; and a group of medicinal-mushroom extracts including reishi, chaga, cordyceps, shiitake and maitake. Algae-based items such as chlorella, spirulina and an algae-derived omega-3 sit alongside fish oil and krill oil.

Several products are of interest to readers following beauty supplements. The catalogue includes Biotin 5 mg, hyaluronic acid in 50 mg and 100 mg strengths, silica (Kieselerde), a silicon product, bamboo and MSM. The company does not make specific skin, hair or nail claims for them on its product listings. Two alkaline bath products, Basenbad and Säure-Basen Bad, round out the range.

A product information sheet for the brand's Vitamin B3 capsules gives a sense of how the products are built. Each capsule contains 15 mg of nicotinamide, with microcrystalline cellulose as a filler and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and the sheet describes the product as free from gluten, lactose, gelatine and colourings, with no added preservatives [7]. The sheet also lists German pharmacy product numbers (PZN) for packs of 60, 120 and 180 capsules.

Part of the range is certified organic. 11A Nutritheke GmbH holds certification under the European Union's organic-production regulation (EU) 2018/848, issued by the control body ABCERT AG under the code DE-ÖKO-006 [5]. The certification covers the company's organic products, which are marked "BIO" in their names, such as Ashwagandha 500 mg BIO, Gerstengras 400 mg BIO and Mönchspfeffer BIO, rather than the range as a whole. No other third-party certifications are documented.

Current status

Nutritheke is active. As of October 2026 its webshop was online with 249 priced products, a customer account system and a weekday service hotline [4]. The most recent dated company document is the organic certificate, whose file name indicates a period from 2 December 2024 to 31 January 2026; the certificate itself refers readers to ABCERT's online register for its current status.

The brand's presence is confined to Germany. Its website, imprint and product documents are published only in German, prices are given in euros, and no activity in other countries is documented. The company runs no news section, blog or social media accounts.
