Inspiring Wellness in Oro Valley

For Kim Crevelone, working at Sprouts in Tucson, Arizona, is more than just a job; it’s a way to give back to the Oro Valley community she calls home. Kim’s journey in natural health retail began with her deep connection to her neighbors and a desire to make a positive impact.

“I was already a part of this Oro Valley community,” Kim shares. “I learned Sprout’s way of educating our customers. Consumer lectures were very informative.” This commitment to education and community has shaped her approach to wellness, making her a trusted source for customers seeking guidance on their health journeys.

Staying Ahead of the Curve

The world of natural health is constantly evolving, and Kim is dedicated to staying informed about the latest trends and products. “Staying informed on trends is one thing, and another to learn about all the products we carry,” she explains.

Kim emphasizes the importance of education, both for herself and her customers. She keeps a close eye on social media and remembers the days when a mention from Dr. Oz could empty shelves for months. For Kim, being knowledgeable means she can provide the best recommendations and empower her customers to make informed choices.

Making a Difference, One Customer at a Time

What truly motivates Kim is the opportunity to help people improve their lives. She recalls a recent experience that highlights the rewarding nature of her work: “Recently, I had a woman in her 70s come in and say she couldn’t sleep. She was looking for a sleep formula. I asked if she takes magnesium. That is what she bought. Two weeks later, she came in, waited for me to help the customer I was with, and told me, ‘Thank you. I have slept every night since purchasing the magnesium.’ That is what I enjoy the most about working at Sprouts.”

Probiotics: A Customer Favorite

Regarding popular products, probiotics are a category that resonates with Kim’s customers. Probiotics are vital for gut health. We need to give our body an army of good bacteria to fight the bad ones,” Kim explains. She’s seen firsthand how products like Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics and Reg’Activ have made a difference for her customers, many of whom repeatedly return for these trusted supplements.

The Dr. Ohhira’s Difference!

Kim is a passionate advocate for Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics, both professionally and personally. She enjoys sharing the unique story behind the product: “I like to tell customers how these bacteria are established with classical music. Also, convenient to travel with and necessary to stay regular.” For Kim, the feedback speaks for itself—customers consistently return to purchase Dr. Ohhira’s, a testament to its effectiveness.

“Dr. Ohhira’s has pre-, pro-, and postbiotics, helping to give the tools to keep a healthy gut environment,” Kim notes. She incorporates Dr. Ohhira’s into her own health routine, returning to it after trying other brands. Its comprehensive support for gut health makes it her probiotic of choice.
