Personal Story

I am passionate about creating health and happiness through food that is allergen friendly, 100% natural and 100% delicious.

Food has brought me so much joy ever since I was a child.  In fact, one of my favorite past times was to wait for my parents to come home from the market after work.  Dad would sneak a cup of pudding and a wooden spoon into my tiny hands while supervising my cycling and inevitably, I would fall flat on the ground with pudding all over me and hearing mom at the background yelling “again?”

My lactose intolerance and gluten-sensitivity didn’t stop me from concocting different experiments in the kitchen nor did it stop me from eating things that get would make me ill: dairy, gluten, or sugary items made me bloat up, groggy, or forced to take medications and rest in bed.  I felt that the only choice I had was between health or taste, as dairy-free and sugar-free yet healthy alternatives do not exist.

But that all changed when my Grandma passed away from diabetes – a disease that also caused her to lose functionality of her legs.  It was after her death that I became vigilant about my food choices and would stopped myself from reaching for “trigger” foods. Even though I would still long for the taste.

Through my diet changes and the creation of Yoconut Dairy free, I have now been able to complete a marathon, be a part of several dance teams, and be featured in a fitness video. Yoconut Dairy Free has given me life to shine and I know it will brighten yours.
