Backstage with BONDI VITE A t Go Vita, we love to share the stories behind our favourite boasting a cumulative 30-plus years of professional experience. Their goal was to create a range of fairly priced, premium quality, clinical-strength complementary medicine products that were specifically created with active and athletic outcomes in mind.
What is HASTA? With his background in professional sport, Damien was mindful about creating a range that could support the performance of the world’s best, and this is why he has ensured Bondi Vite products are HASTA (Human and Supplement Testing Australia) batch- tested for banned substances. This commitment to clean, safe supplements through HASTA is another feature that sets Bondi Vite apart from many other sports nutrition products. Nor is this something that is only of interest to elite athletes; increasingly, the strength, quality and safety of supplements is just as important to the everyday person who is concerned about diet and nutrition and who loves nothing more than getting out and being active, whether that sees them jogging in a park, taking a fitness class, or swimming in our oceans. Further evidence of the Bondi Vite philosophy and their pride in their products is found in fact they are also Australian-made, approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), made with the highest quality active ingredients at their upper-recommended dosage to ensure maximum benefit, and comply with all aspects required for Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP).

The brutal nature of Damien’s final surgery saw him play the remainder of his career on a hugely compromised knee, which increased his commitment to preparation, recovery and preventive measures more than ever before. It also strengthened his determination to find alternatives to long-term use of conventional anti- inflammatory drugs, and their side effects. The result? Bondi Vite was born. The Bondi Vite difference Towards the close of his playing career, Damien went about assembling a formulation team of biochemists, accredited performance dieticians and pharmacists,
Importantly, the products were designed to support a range of users, from weekend warriors to elite athletes, and everything in between. The new choice of elite sporting teams across the country, Bondi Vite has now become an integral part of the preparation of some of Australia’s best athletes. Bondi Vite is also redefining the limits of complementary medicine to specifically support and drive active lifestyles in ordinary people. With the Australian population more active than ever before, Bondi Vite aims to shift the dial on complementary medicine and bring a high-performance mindset to the everyday active person as well as support the high-performance athlete who pushes their limits on any given day. That’s the Bondi Vite difference - formulations developed specifically for a high physical output which optimise energy, promote recovery, boost immunity and protect joints.
