About Us

Have you ever wondered why we rely on harmful chemicals and artificial ingredients to maintain our body’s health? We have. After years of battling on-and-off tonsillitis, our founder Carly Stein finally found relief in an ingredient called propolis: a combination of tree and plant resin created by bees to protect the hive. We aren’t just creating cleaner alternatives to the traditional medicine cabinet; we’re creating all-around cleaner products. Period. We merge modern science with natural medicine to prove that clean medicine can actually work. We believe that today’s most common health problems can be solved with better-for-you ingredients found right in nature. We source the highest-quality, humane ingredients, and we never water them down with artificial extras. We care about the world around us and the people in it. It’s what drives our entire brand. We don’t just care because it’s cool; it's our genuine belief that our products empower you to take your health into your own hands. We’re all better human beings when we feel our best, right?
