David Beckham hasn’t slowed down since hanging up his cleats. Like many athletes transitioning into business, the former Real Madrid star has successfully ventured into various industries, from launching a fragrance line to endorsing high-profile brands. But now, Beckham is making headlines with the launch of his newest endeavor—a health and wellness brand called IM8, deeply connected to his personal philosophy of healthy living.

A New Era in sports supplements

At 49, Beckham remains an icon of health and fitness, credited to his disciplined training routine, balanced diet, and, as he now reveals, his long-time use of sports supplements. Recognizing the booming interest in supplementation, particularly in the U.S. and increasingly in Europe, Beckham saw an opportunity to enter the market. He follows in the footsteps of other sports legends like Rafael Nadal, who co-created NDL Pro-Health with Cantabria Labs.

IM8 debuts with two flagship products aimed at enhancing longevity and overall well-being. This initiative is a collaboration between Beckham and Prenetics, a clinical health company based in Hong Kong. What sets IM8 apart is its cutting-edge foundation, rooted in technology developed with insights from NASA space medicine scientists and leveraging a patented rejuvenation system known as CRT8.

Simplifying wellness with IM8

In announcing the launch, Beckham shared his personal journey with supplements:

“Supplements have been part of my routine for years, but the industry can be overwhelming. I often wondered if a few key products could meet all my needs. By partnering with Prenetics, we’ve developed a shared vision to simplify wellness with the best supplements. IM8 delivers essential nutrients, tastes great, is easy to use, and fits seamlessly into any routine.”

Beckham emphasized that IM8 offers a daily powder featuring a precise mix of vitamins and minerals, alongside a capsule designed to boost longevity. “That’s why I’m excited to share what I’ve created with the scientists at Prenetics,” he added in a message to his followers on social media.
