Q&A Session with Boku Superfood Master Formulator Dr. BJ Adrezin!
What made you go into the naturopathic field?
When I was a teenager, I saw my grandparents killed by being prescribed multiple prescription medications. I wanted to find a better way to help people to become healthier, and live their lives without running from doctor to doctor. Naturopathic Medicine is a comprehensive approach to health. Even though I can prescribe prescription medications, I have so many tools to help a person get well and live a good life, I rarely prescribe drugs.
How did you come up with the BõKU™ formula?
BõKU™ Super Food is the product of my many years of study and practice in the field of naturopathic and nutritional medicine, combined with BõKU™ International’s mission to create the most potent, nutrient dense and health creating formula ever. The mandate required that there could be no fillers of any kind and that every ingredient in BõKU™ Super Food was there for a reason. On top of that, the blend had to be USDA certified Organic and taste good! This was perhaps the most challenging aspect of creating the BõKU™ formula given the unparalleled nutritional value of this incredibly potent blend of ingredients. I designed BõKU™ Super Food to appeal to the masses and support the body’s inner cleansing of its cells and organs. This is so important in the highly toxic environment in which most of us live. On the other hand, cleansing too quickly can deplete the body of nutrients and energy. Therefore, I carefully balanced BõKU™ with super rejuvenating foods, that help revitalize the body. I chose each BõKU™ Super Food ingredient to create a powerful synergy to help people move to their next level.
What is the most difficult part of formulating?
Formulating is challenging on many fronts. Once I determine the benefits I want to offer in a formula, I have to source ingredients from around the world. This is made even more complex because we are only using certified organic, kosher, and vegan ingredients in BõKU™ Super Food. It’s an extremely rewarding challenge to only use the world’s finest ingredients, create a vision for the nutritional profile, get the taste and texture right, and design an overall experience that people will want again and again.
Thanks Dr BJ!
