2. Introduction
• An experienced nutritional supplement executive, Kenneth
Brailsford has founded or cofounded a wide variety of
companies, including Botanicals, Inc., and Nature’s Sunshine.
Sometimes called the father of herbal encapsulation, he has
had an innovative career since the 1970s. Most recently,
Kenneth Brailsford built on his decades of industry experience
to create Zija International.
Zija International is dedicated to promoting health and good
nutrition and offers a range of products for energy, nutrition,
skin care, and weight management, based on the health
benefits of the Moringa tree and its seeds, leaves, and fruit.
Zija International’s product line also includes Améo essential
oils, which can be ingested as vegetable-based, soft gel caps or
diffused in the air.

3. Améo Products
• To ensure that every Améo oil meets the highest
standards of usability, purity, and quality, the
company puts them through organoleptic testing,
microbial testing, heavy metal testing, gas
chromatography and mass spectrometry, among
other tests. In addition, Améo warrants that all of its
single- and blended-oil products have received
CERTI-5 validation, which means that they meet
ISO quality-testing criteria, United States
Pharmacopeia standards, and AFNOR (Association
Française de Normalisation) standards.
