Statistics have shown that about 70% of adults experience back pain (either acute or chronic) at least once in their lifetime. In general, the prevalence of back pain varies from 10% to 63% (with an average of 37%) in any population.
In Malaysia, 3.8 million (about 12%) of the population are known to suffer from back pain. The prevalence is much higher among high-risk groups. Recent surveys have found that this statistic has increased, as lifestyles of people have changed due conditions during the pandemic like work-from-home policies and endemic social changes. And, current numbers suggest that more than half of the population (>50%) may now suffer from lower back pain in the lumbar region.
In recognition of the prevalence of back pain, Ecolite has launched a new product, Ecolite Waist Tonic, utilising traditional herbs with Physta® Tongkat Ali as the active ingredient, to improve blood circulation and relieve back pain and fatigue. It can be consumed daily to improve energy, health and happiness.
The packaging has also been upgraded to a simple pouch, which is convenient for customers to take with them and consume at any time.
It solves anxiety and worry of anyone who lead hectic, on-the-go lifestyles. One of the highlights of Ecolite Waist Tonic includes the addition of the patented Physta® tongkat ali extract. In addition to the original waist-replenishing effect, the patented extract can also help restore men’s physical strength and increase vitality. Physta® is a standardised tongkat ali extract with proven effectiveness through 15 clinical and 9 toxicology studies, to determine safe, effective doses for improving quality of life, hormone levels, fertility, vitality and overall health.
Believing in Physta®, well-known actor, Norman Hakim, was signed as the product ambassador.

When he returns home, he still has to play the roles of a father and husband. Before consuming Ecolite Waist Tonic, he often felt discomfort in his back, waist and knee.
