AT NOURISH, WE LOVE TO SAY NO
NO tradeoffs between convenience and health to you and your planet.
NO questionable ingredients.
NO prioritizing profits over people.
NO Shortcuts. That is why our protein pudding took us over two years to develop.
About us
Nourish was founded by me, Dr. Arianna Beetz, a nutrition coach and PhD specializing in wellbeing, with the amazing support of my husband, Patrick Beetz, a healthcare research analyst.
In other words, Nourish was created by two health-obsessed nerds committed to optimizing your wellbeing.
We create food that prioritizes you and your planet’s health—everything else comes second. We rely on simple, potent ingredients you’d find in your kitchen. But with our backgrounds, "simple" and "clean" aren't enough—we need science on our side. While conventional health food ingredients like honey, dates, oats, and rice may be considered "clean," research shows they can spike blood sugar or offer little nutritional value compared to their metabolic drawbacks.
That’s why every ingredient we use must have a science-backed benefit to YOU.
We believe nature's offerings are so rich that we can afford to be picky.

Our Story
When I was 7, my mom and I moved to the USA from Peru. Despite a tight budget, my mom always prioritized the nourishing power of whole foods, and when I became the first person in my family to graduate college, she joked that it was thanks to the chia-quinoa porridge I ate daily for breakfast.
I went on to pursue a PhD to research employee wellbeing, but it didn’t take long for me to realize that true wellbeing is nearly impossible in today’s food landscape. Meal replacements were either high in protein but packed with ultra-processed ingredients or labeled as “natural,” but loaded with sugar and lacking enough protein. It was clear that most companies were choosing the cheapest way to produce food, prioritizing profits over people’s health.
My dissertation was about how overcoming adversity makes you stronger, and I thought my journey was set. But when my aunt, who helped raise me, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s—often referred to as type 3 diabetes because of its connection to diet—that became my turning point. I decided to leave academia and fully commit to my passion for nourishing people’s wellbeing through food.
After two years and 189 recipe iterations (and counting), Nourish is finally ready to launch.
Nourish was founded on the belief that the wellbeing of both people and the planet should be at the heart of every foOD COMPANY.
Nourish is fighting for a change in the food industry, one snack at a time. Not just a change to care more about people, but also more about the planet. Because the two go hand in hand.
Our COMMITMENT
Products made only with ingredients that nourish
A core part of our mission is to rely on simple–yet potent–real foods that can be found in your kitchen (if you have the kitchen of a superfood lover). No ingredients that would only be found in processing plants will ever be in our products. To hold us accountable to this standard, we subject all of our products to the MAH (Make them At Home) Test. All of our products are so clean that you can make them at home from scratch. We even share the recipes, with the exact ratios of ingredients hidden (those are proprietary secrets), so that you can make them at home if you prefer to do so.
NO MORE TRADEOFFS BETWEEN FITNESS NOW AND HEALTH LATER
Over the past century, nutritional science has achieved incredible feats in disease prevention. Yet the sports nutrition industry has not kept up. It still emphasizes being strong now over being healthy later. Meanwhile, the rapidly growing longevity supplement industry—which is completely unregulated— has become unaffordable, with longevity enthusiasts taking up to 100 expensive supplements a day. Yet most of these supplements come from real foods—and the medical community increasingly advises us to get them in their real food form. That's why Nourish is committed to using the power of real foods only.
