MEET THE GIRL WHO DREAMED CHEMISTRY
If you ever engage with the business, in any form, I will be the one responding and answering all your questions. I absolutely love hearing from you! And for any of you that have chatted to me before, you will know that at Chemistry our heart is to serve.
If one word could summarise CNS it would be SOLICITUDE [NOUN] " Care or concern for someone or something". CHEMISTRY Natural Science was born from a dream to positively impact the health of humankind.
We embrace the concept that food is medicine, and what we eat, the state of our gut, and overall well-being are intimately linked. Our wellness blends are made with the finest ingredients and packed with clinically proven dosages to guarantee effectiveness, and you flourish inside and out.
PLUMP was formulated in 2020 as an all-in-one wellness blend to help support my 80-year-old mom with her health journey. She was the inspiration behind each ingredient and the reason our motto today is “If it's not good enough mom, it’s not good enough for us.” PLUMP contains all you need to support your body in healing and building a strong immune system.
Then in 2022 we formulated our second product, BALANCE. This time for my first love, my father. BALANCE is our green superfood formula that also includes a potent 10+ adaptogen blend, plus an incredible little succulent plant called Sceletium. BALANCE is formulated to boost your brain power, improve your energy levels, replenish + nourish your body, + gut. It just won BEST PROBIOTIC supplement at the Woman&Home Holy Grail Beauty Awards, exactly 3 months after my father passed, and was announced in the October Edition, the month of his first heavenly birthday. Such a wonderufl a tribute to this very special human I get to call daddy.
We have a clear vision of what we want CNS to be, and our promise is to continue formulating innovative products that combine the best of science and nature, using clean, sustainable and clinically proven ingredients as an alternative to medicine, that will simplify your life and support your health goals. And we can't wait to share them all with you!
