Family-Recipe Inspired Nutraceutical Supplements for Metabolic Wellness
We develop metabolic wellness supplements inspired by traditional Amazonian family food preparations. Teas, tinctures, and botanical formulations passed down through generations, now backed by modern research and testing.
For generations, the Silva and Cunha families have preserved traditional Amazonian wellness preparations in the heart of Itacoatiara, Brazil. Our grandmothers carefully documented which forest botanicals supported energy, which mineral-rich foods enhanced vitality, and which time-tested combinations created the foundation for metabolic wellness.
What started as handwritten recipe journals passed between family members has evolved into a modern supplement company that honors both tradition and science. We study the documented benefits of our ancestral preparations and transform those insights into tested, standardized supplements.
Our mission is simple: bridge the gap between traditional Amazonian wisdom and contemporary wellness needs, creating supplements that respect both the forest and the laboratory.
Our signature blend combines camu camu fruit extract providing natural vitamin C, acai berry extract standardized to anthocyanins, and copaiba oil. Three documented Amazonian superfruits sourced from sustainable harvesters in the Amazon basin, prepared using traditional concentration methods refined with modern extraction techniques.
A mineral formula inspired by our family's traditional food-based supplementation practices. Features magnesium from marine sources, zinc from pumpkin seed concentrate, and selenium from Brazil nuts. Each mineral source reflects the traditional wisdom of using whole food sources rather than synthetic alternatives.
Traditional South American botanicals with published research supporting their nutritional properties. Includes guarana seed extract with natural caffeine, yerba mate leaf extract, and pau d'arco bark extract. Standardized extracts maintain full compound profiles while ensuring consistent potency.
Our development process begins with the handwritten recipe journals our families have maintained for decades. These detailed records document not just ingredients and proportions, but seasonal timing, preparation methods, and observed benefits across generations of use.
We then collaborate with research partners to understand the scientific basis for these traditional preparations. What compounds are responsible for the documented effects? How can we maintain bioavailability while creating shelf-stable supplements? How do we honor traditional methods while meeting modern safety standards?
Just as our grandmothers demanded the freshest ingredients and precise preparation methods, we maintain rigorous standards throughout our supplement development process. Every batch undergoes comprehensive testing to ensure it meets both traditional quality expectations and modern safety requirements.
Our quality standards include: raw material authentication using botanical identification protocols, extraction process verification to maintain traditional compound ratios, microbial testing for safety, heavy metals screening, and potency verification through standardized analytical methods.
We work exclusively with suppliers who share our commitment to sustainable harvesting practices and fair trade with Amazon communities. Each ingredient is traced from forest to final product, maintaining the integrity of both the botanical and the traditional relationships that make our work possible.

Each ingredient in our supplements comes with its own story of traditional use and sustainable harvesting. Our camu camu is gathered by families who have managed specific groves for generations, following seasonal patterns that ensure ongoing forest health.
The guarana in our metabolic support comes from indigenous communities in the Maués region who have cultivated this energizing seed for over 1,000 years. Our sourcing partnerships ensure these communities receive fair compensation while maintaining traditional cultivation methods.
Our Brazil nut selenium sources support reforestation efforts in Pará state, where each tree takes 15 years to mature and can produce nuts for over 500 years when properly managed. This long-term thinking reflects both traditional wisdom and modern sustainability practices.
Our supplement formulations honor the preparation methods documented in family recipes. Traditional techniques like cold-water extraction for delicate compounds, solar drying for mineral concentration, and fermentation for bioavailability enhancement all inform our modern processes.
The timing and sequencing of traditional preparations often held keys to maximizing nutritional benefits. Our research has revealed that many traditional methods naturally optimized compound stability and absorption, principles we maintain in our standardized extraction protocols.
Building supplements is just one part of preserving traditional wellness knowledge. We actively document and share traditional preparation methods, work with ethnobotanists to record elder knowledge, and support educational programs that teach traditional food preparation to younger generations.
Our community includes researchers, traditional knowledge keepers, sustainable agriculture advocates, and individuals interested in the intersection of traditional wisdom and modern wellness. We regularly share updates about ingredient sourcing, traditional recipe discoveries, and the ongoing research that informs our formulations.
Through our educational initiatives, we support workshops on traditional food preparation, collaborate with universities studying traditional botanical knowledge, fund documentation of elder wisdom, and promote sustainable harvesting education in Amazon communities.
Our ongoing research continues to reveal new insights about traditional preparations and their modern applications. Recent laboratory analysis of traditional fermentation methods has shown how specific timing and environmental conditions enhance mineral bioavailability in ways that modern technology is only beginning to understand.
We regularly update our community about seasonal ingredient availability, new research findings about traditional compounds, and developments in sustainable sourcing partnerships. Our goal is to maintain transparency about both our processes and the ongoing challenges of ethical ingredient sourcing.
Traditional knowledge holders continue to share new insights about preparation methods, ingredient combinations, and seasonal timing that inform our research and development. This ongoing dialogue between tradition and science drives continuous improvement in our formulations and methods.
