Nutra niche

Hello! Today’s topic is about Nutra offers, what differs them from other affiliate niches and how to promote them.

After the highest outburst of Corona in 2020, nutra offers have regained their popularity and the amount of promotion possibilities is thriving. Adavice DSP has the tools to help the affiliates in promoting this vertical effectively and profitably.

The name “Nutra” is shortened from “nutraceuticals” and includes all offer types that fall into the nutritional supplements category. Nutra products do not include prescribed medicine or drugs. By “nutra offer” we mean the promotion of products with additional health benefits, such as food supplements or beauty products. However, the niche is much wider.

Nutra vertical offers include:
- Weight loss (products, supplements, equipment);
- Skincare and beauty products;

- Dietary plans;
- Nutritional supplements;
