I was wondering like what kind of education would you have to have to start your own supplement company. Like maybe would you have to be some kind of scientist or what idk but i would greatly appreciate it if somebody would help me out.

Marketing.

On a less pessimistic note, pharmacology maybe biochem.

Basically what I was going to say -_-

Hence why I changed my education course to a major in marketing with a minor in nutrition

Why would you come here asking for advice on how to create a supplement company? FAIL! Figure things out on your own brah. It's not that hard and it's probably going to be indicative of your success if you can figure things out on your own or not. And if you want to come up in this saturated market (which has only become even more increasingly saturated in the past few years), you better have an absolute badass product that no one else has. Or something that sets you apart. Economic principle states that a market that is still growing and has a profits that are above normal rate of return will result in market saturation eventually. This happens in every market, of course. The guys who are on top are the ones who started early in the game or brought something badass on to the table.

EDIT: Didn't realize you were 16! My bad bro. Thought you were actually going to start one up (well, unless you are). Also, don't let age limit you really. If you really think you have something to bring to the table, then you simply have something to capitalize on that should be taken advantage of (this may not be the case at 16 due to lack of experience with any ingredients/ratios that aren't already in other products). Trust me, I know. I started my first successful business at 17.
