Altman Health

Altman Health (Hebrew: אלטמן בריאות) is a private Israeli company in the field of nutritional supplements. Its roots go back to the Altman pharmacy, founded by the Altman family in 1940 on King George Street in Tel Aviv. That pharmacy was one of the first homeopathic pharmacies in the country, preparing homeopathic and herbal preparations and tinctures based on knowledge the family brought from Germany. The pharmacy operated for about forty years, until the 1980s, when the Altman family established "Altman Natural Pharmacy" (אלטמן רוקחות טבעית) and began importing health products, nutritional supplements and homeopathy into Israel, mainly from Germany and Switzerland. A parallel strand of the company's history comes from the Toker family. In 1969, Dov Toker and his son Moshe founded a natural-food business called "Beit HaDieta" on Allenby Street in Tel Aviv, focused on natural foods and ingredients aimed at vegetarians and vegans. In the 1980s they began importing then-innovative products such as apple cider vinegar, rice cakes and garlic extracts, as well as nutritional supplements under several brands, including Eden, Vitalia and Nutri Life. Moshe Toker later founded "Ta'am Teva" (טעם טבע), which focused on nutritional supplements, in particular importing the Alsepa brand (omega-3 from fish oil) and developing the Nutri Life brand, which also includes Mega Gluflex. In the 1990s, Altman Natural Pharmacy developed the first product in the Protec line (Propolantum Plus throat lozenges) and built a marketing system aimed at doctors and pharmacists. In 2004–2005, the Ma'avarot group acquired 51% of Ta'am Teva and 100% of Altman Natural Pharmacy, creating a business partnership called "Ta'am Teva Altman". In 2009 the company decided to make "Altman" the main umbrella brand and company name. Under the Altman brand sit many sub-brands, including Protec, Roths HR, Yomi, Alsepa and Mega Gluflex. Altman's main activity is the development, import and marketing of nutritional supplements, vitamins, minerals, probiotics, herbal medicine, homeopathic formulas and dermo-cosmetic products. Products are marketed and sold in pharmacies, health funds (kupot holim), natural-product stores, retail chains, pharmas and e-commerce sites. In 2024 Altman acquired the license for the breastfeeding brand Lansinoh, which supplies products for breastfeeding mothers such as creams, pads, milk storage bags, pumps and feeding bottles. Altman sponsors judoka Inbar Lanir, bronze medalist at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and silver medalist at the Paris 2024 Olympics. In 2022 it was reported that the company had about 130 employees, 65% of them women; the company won the 2024 Equal Employment Opportunity award for promoting women.

The history of Altman Health is a story of connection between people: a connection between a family of pharmacists and a family that believed in the power of food from nature. Pharmacists who prepared, according to knowledge passed down in the family, remedies for winter, and natural nutrition people who knew that omega-3 in fish oil would protect our hearts. The connection between them created one company, with a shared desire to do good – the Altman company. Since then, for many years, people have worked together to bring the richest variety of vitamins, minerals, unique formulas, medicinal herbs and dermo-cosmetics – only products they believe in, without compromise. The Altman pharmacy was founded by the Altman family in 1940 on King George Street in Tel Aviv. It was one of the first homeopathic pharmacies in the country, dealing in homeopathic preparations, herbal preparations and tinctures according to knowledge the family members brought from Germany. The place operated for about 40 years, until the 1980s, when the Altman family established the company "Altman Natural Pharmacy" (אלטמן רוקחות טבעית) and began importing health products, nutritional supplements and homeopathy to Israel, mainly from Germany and Switzerland. In 1969, Dov Toker and his son Moshe founded a natural food business called "Beit HaDieta" on Allenby Street in Tel Aviv, which focused on natural food and ingredients aimed at vegetarians and vegans. In the 1980s they began importing products from around the world that were considered innovative at the time: apple cider vinegar, rice cakes and garlic extracts, as well as nutritional supplements under several brands – Eden, Vitalia and Nutri Life. Later, Moshe Toker founded the company "Ta'am Teva" which focused on nutritional supplements, in particular importing the Alsepa brand (omega-3 from fish oil) and developing the "Nutri Life" brand, which also includes Mega Gluflex. In the 1990s, Altman Natural Pharmacy developed the first product in the Protec series (Propolantum Plus – throat lozenges) and established a marketing system for doctors and pharmacists. In 2004–2005, the Ma'avarot group acquired 51% of "Ta'am Teva" and 100% of "Altman Natural Pharmacy" and created a business partnership called "Ta'am Teva Altman".
