A history inspired by nutrition
- Post WW2, Italy, like much of Europe, was left devastated. Italians developed a number of severe nutritional deficiencies, with women & children the hardest hit demographic amongst the population.
- Impassioned by his struggling nation, an Italian entrepreneur, Dr Leo Vesely sought to ease the post war hardships that plagued his neightbours, right across the continent.
- Focused on the nutritional needs of women & children alike, Dr Leo Vesely founded CSL in 1872, to deliver beneficial nutrition through bacteria supported food.
- The product of his unwavering passion, CSL, would go on to become the 1st Italian company to study lactic acid bacteria — critical to the maternal health of expectant mothers.
- To this day, Dr Leo Vesely's legacy is sown into the history books; CSL, is Italy's largest probiotic manufacturer and proudly ranks in the top 5 producers of probiotics, globally.
