Company Announces Partnership with Feed the Children, a Global Champion for 
Ending Childhood Hunger


Herbalife Nutrition (NYSE:HLF), a premier global nutrition company, today 
announced the launch of the Nutrition for Zero Hunger global initiative, 
pledging US$2 million to help end world hunger, ensure people have access to 
good nutrition and address rising obesity. The initiative, with the assistance 
of nonprofit partners, will focus on providing access to healthy foods, 
improving nutrition education, identifying sustainable food resources and 
raising awareness of the global crisis. 

In conjunction with the launch of the initiative, the Company also announced 
its partnership with Feed the Children, a nonprofit organization committed to 
defeating childhood hunger worldwide. Feed the Children has designated 
September as Defeat Hunger Month and as a lead partner of Nutrition for Zero 
Hunger, Herbalife Nutrition will support their programs to help end hunger 
around the world.

"The Nutrition for Zero Hunger initiative addresses key pandemic problems and 
through our work with our partners, like Feed the Children, we hope to build a 
world where everyone has access to quality food and nutrition," said Alan 
Hoffman, Executive Vice President, Global Corporate Affairs.

As a leader in the global nutrition, Herbalife Nutrition was founded, nearly 40 
years ago, on the importance and value of good nutrition, providing a reliable 
source of nutritious food through a network of independent distributors to 
customers worldwide. 

"Feed the Children is proud to partner with Herbalife Nutrition to address the 
important issue of childhood hunger," said Travis Arnold, Feed the Children 
president and CEO. "The problem cannot be tackled alone. We know that when we 
combine our efforts, we will have a greater impact on the lives of families who 
need us most around the world." 

Feed the Children is an organization that is dedicated to supporting families 
and communities by providing food assistance and resources to help achieve 
stable lives both in the U.S. and internationally in 10 countries. In 2018, 
Feed the Children distributed 88.6 million pounds of food and essentials, 
working with community partners to support 6.5 million people globally.

In addition to supporting strategic partnerships, Nutrition for Zero Hunger 
aligns with the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal #2, which calls 
for bold action to end hunger in all its forms by 2030, as well as solutions to 
achieve food security and improve nutrition worldwide. Through the US$2 million 
pledge, the Company will:

--Partner with organizations addressing hunger, food security and malnutrition  
--Provide in-kind donations of nutritious food and nutrition products to 
vulnerable people 
--Deliver resources to support nutrition education
