Nestlé Health Science (Lausanne, Switzerland) is expanding into personalized nutrition with the acquisition of Persona (Snoqualmie, WA), a personalized vitamin business. The company will operate under Nestlé Health Science’s North American-based Atrium Professional Brands, which includes a number of other brands, such as Garden of Life, for example.
