As I celebrate 9 years of blogging this month, I’ve enjoyed reflecting back on all the experiences I’ve enjoyed. I’ve had the opportunity to travel to some amazing places, run many fantastic races, meet many people whom I now call friends, test many incredible products and work with wonderful brands in the health and wellness industry.
One of the companies I am most excited to partner with is one whose products have been in my home far longer than I’ve been blogging. My family and I have been loyal fans and consumers of NOW products for over 20 years.
This year NOW is celebrating their 50th anniversary. Let that sink in a minute. They’ve been a family-owned health and wellness company for 50 years. In a world where seemingly everything is expendable and businesses can be gone or sold in a matter of months, celebrating 50 years in business is huge.
Since I became a NOW Influencer in 2015, my friends at NOW have become more like family to me. I’ve come to rely on NOW for day-to-day health and wellness needs including supplements, natural foods, personal care and beauty items for me and my family. For me, the NOW brand is synonymous with high quality I can trust at reasonable prices.
This video tells the NOW story better than I can. Pay attention, there will be a quiz later…and maybe you’ll see someone you know.
To celebrate NOW’s amazing 50th anniversary I’ve got a few fantastic giveaways for you.
- NOW is producing 1,000,000 gold-capped bottles across 50 select supplement SKUs. If you find a golden ticket inside a gold-capped bottle you could win $10,000 instantly!
- 50 Years of Healthy Products Sweepstakes.
- Marcia’s 5 NOW Favorites giveaway. It was so tough to narrow it down to just five things but I think you’ll love these as much as I do:
Magnesium Flakes. I’ve raved about these on multiple occasions. There’s nothing like finishing a long, arduous workout and coming home to a comforting magnesium bath.
Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser. If you’re a regular reader, you already know about my fondness for essential oils. I love fragrance in my home and essential oils are a chemical-free way to enjoy it. This diffuser utilizes cool steam so there’s no potential for burns.
Essential Oil Set. What good is a diffuser without some essential oils to diffuse? You have your choice of sets, each containing 4 essential oils: Balancing, Uplifting, Relaxing or Romantic.
BCAA Big 6. Muscles make my world go round. When you build muscle, you run better. Faster. Stronger. Branch Chain Amino Acids are basically food for your muscles. *They support exercise endurance and help you recover from intense workouts.* I mix it with water and drink before – during & after strength workouts and after long runs.
100% Pure Shea Butter. This stuff rocks for winter-dry skin. And tired, overworked runner’s feet.
WIN IT! One lucky winner will receive all five of these fabulous products. Open to US residents only please.

I feel like I need so many different things after having a baby a few months ago….
9 years!? That’s amazing! <3!! Happy blogiversary month! <3
I'd love to get a golden ticket!! Will definitely have to go grab some NOW products, hahah. ;P I need that shea butter in my life!
Would try the shea butter I guess. Winter is such a dry skin season
These all sound like great products! Im especially interested in the magnesium flakes and shea butter!
What a great way to celebrate your blogiversary! I’m beginning to think that I am the only person still not taking BCAAs and I don’t really know why – except I don’t know much about them. Off to do some research 😉
I’d be all over that diffuser. Love the video!
The BCAA Big 6 would be great as I try to build muscle after my workouts!
nice! I’m not in the US so no entry for me, but I remember NOW products from when I was young!! I totally remember the old labels and bottles being in our cupboards at home. Great company!
Honestly, I’d love the Shea butter. My skin needs all the love this winter!
Would love to try the Shea butter on my itchy winter skin.
Congrats on 9 Years ! WOW! This is my first year blogging and Im learning as I go. I look to you long lasting bloggers for inspiration and how to do things right (as Im sure Im doing everything wrong. LOL)
I have been lathering shea butter all over my dear Voldemort scar and I love it on my feet, too. My dry skin needs all the moisture it can get. Congrats on 9 years!!! That’s quite an impressive milestone!
I’m the “K” who commented above…not sure how my full name didn’t make the cut LOL
I just got my first diffuser, and am enjoying the new scents. I’m using a different company, but I have a stress relief blend, and good sleep blend. I’m looking at the breathe right blend too, with my allergies.
Congrats on 9 years! I’d like to try the diffuser and the magnesium flakes
9 years of blogging is awesome! I’m so curious about many of the NOW products – I love essential oils so I definitely want to check out their line and my skin is in desperate need of that shea butter! Great giveaway!
I would love to try the oil diffuser! I feel like I only started hearing about NOW products in the past few years. Amazing they’ve been around for 50 years.
I had no idea NOW has been around for 50 years. That makes me love them even more. I hope I win the giveaway because I’ve been eyeing BCAAs!
Congrats on blogging for 9 years! I’ve never heard of NOW products but being in business for 50 years is impressive!
Wow – blogging for 9 years? That’s incredible Marcia – congrats!
I like a lot of NOW products but I would really like to try the magnesium flakes.
9 years of blogging is amazing! Happy Blogiversary!
What a fantastic giveaway & you are a great representative!!!
The shea butter would be especially moisturizing since it’s been so cold and dry this winter.
Now…Wow! Almost famous! Awesome that you have been involved with the company for so long and that they produce products that you love! Congrats on your 9 years of blogging!
I have been heavily into essential oils! I would love to try the oils since I have a diffuser!
Congrats on 9 years!
How amazing that NOW is turning 50! I had no idea. I LOVE their shea butter! I would love to try their magnesium flakes.
I learned and love that the company was started because he wanted to create natural healthy products that were affordable for everyone.
I would love to try the Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser.
NOW seems like such an amazing company! So cool that you used their products before you became involved with them.
And happy Blogiversary! I can’t believe how long we’ve been doing this…
Congrats on your 9 year blogiversary. Magnesium flakes? I use Epsom Salt which is magnesium sulfate, I’m wondering why the magnesium flakes instead? I wouldn’t mind that big tub of shea butter, I hope I win it
I’m most curious about the essential oil diffuser. Many of my friends have them, but I have no idea what they’re like. I’d like to give one a try.
Thelm is so blessed for your blog!!!
Ultrasonic Essential Oil Diffuser is my choice
I’d love to try the BCAAs!
Next on my list is a diffuser. Would like one for my classroom.

You’ve got me fantasizing about a nice hot bath with the magnesium flakes after my next long run!!!
I am loving the oils! Next to try would be those flakes!
I would really like to try the essential oils.
Love NOW products!! Out of your five favorites, I would most love to try the BCAA Big 6. I haven’t tried BCAA supplements yet and would love to see what kind of effect it’ll have! Out of their other products that I haven’t tried yet – I’d love to try their BetterStevia liquid flavors, as well as their xylitol and erythritol.
