Sweet Beginnings

Chris Peruzzi, co-founder, and single dad, formulated the
first functional chocolate products as a fun, effective way to care for his kids’ everyday health realities, including his daughter’s debilitating PMS symptoms and son’s stress and anxiety. 


Having grown up in a multi-generational holistic wellness family with a dad at the forefront of the development of natural health solutions, his kids didn’t want another pill, capsule, or tincture.  In order to address all the symptoms, more than one supplement would be necessary. 


Chris knew he would need to create a complex multi-symptom formula and put it in something that would not simply be tolerated but truly enjoyable. The solution was chocolate. It’s not only delicious and a superfood in its own right, but it’s healthy fats are an ideal vehicle to deliver supplemental health benefits.
