MISSION
Brain balance makes every day better.
Everything we feel, every minute of the day - it’s all about the brain.
Whether we’re happy or down, full of confidence or on edge, energised or running on empty - it comes down to the intricate balance in our brains.
Yet, the stresses and strains of modern life is throwing this balance out of synch for so many of us.
That’s why our passionate mission is help restore brain harmony - through cutting edge nutritional science. To harness the natural power of nutrients - from plants and minerals - to give our brains what they need. So that we can be at our best - at home, at work, every day.
We’re also passionate about following the evidence. Our formulations have been specially created by world-class scientists.
EXPERT-LED
Our scientists, Dr Uma Naidoo and Professor Vittorio Sebastiano, are at the top of their fields at Harvard and Stanford. They humbly fuse the best of science and nature, ancient wisdom and cutting-edge discoveries - on our mission for powerful, natural ways to balance the brain.
Watch their unique approach.
Dr Naidoo is a leading figure in nutritional psychiatry, which explores the impact of nutrition on our mental wellbeing. It’s the subject of her bestselling book This Is What Your Brain Looks Like On Food. She is the director of nutritional and lifestyle psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital and on the faculty at Harvard Medical School. Dr Naidoo has been asked by the American Psychiatric Association to author the first academic text on nutritional psychiatry.
“The more I saw how particular nutrients were helping my patients, the more fascinated I became by the impact of diet on mental health. This passion drives my work as a nutritional psychiatrist.”
Prof Sebastiano runs a research lab at Stanford, in California, where he is an Epigeneticist, Stem Cell Biologist and Reproductive Biology expert. He has made seminal contributions in Regenerative Medicine and has recently discovered a breakthrough approach for the treatment of ageing - which “is going to have enormous repercussions for human health”. Prof Sebastiano has received a number of prestigious awards – and is currently writing a book on genomics and ageing.

① Always dig deeper: relentlessly being led by the science - and the discoveries of the experts from around the world
② Supplements (we’d like to think!) can make a real difference to our lives - but they ideally are part of a wider lifestyle. We want to spread the latest findings around the lifestyles - such as diet - that can bring even greater mental balance
③ Community: we know that suffering can be isolating - and community can be restorative. We want to bring people together to lighten the burden of when you’re not feeling at your best. Brains are better together
