Our Story

Hello there, my name is Katarina...

...this company and online store has been a dream of mine for a very long time. Like many entrepreneurs, I started with nothing but an idea, and had to work very hard to get here. As my idea and my dream grew, I continued to work a full-time job, while I devoted myself to learning more about naturally produced food supplements and superfoods. It was enthralling to learn about how a simple change in diet could change lives.

I combined my passion for Latin America with my natural curiosity at how to be healthier and eat healthier and found out that there are so many plants from this part of the world that have amazing health benefits.

Some examples

Camu Camu

Camu camu is rich in vitamin C

Vitamin C plays many important roles in your body. For example, it helps strengthen your immune system and is needed for the formation of collagen, a protein that supports your skin, bones, and muscles.

Collagen

Collagen is a type of protein. In fact, it’s the most abundant structural protein in animals. A structural protein is one that makes up the structure or framework of your cells and tissues. It is found in connective tissue, skin, tendons, bones, and cartilage. It provides structural support to tissues and plays important roles in cellular processes.

Aguaje

Aguaje is best known for its high amounts of phytoestrogen.  You might have already heard about the many female health benefits of phytoestrogens, such as; Fighting PMS, Alleviating menopause symptoms, Preventing osteoporosis, Preventing certain types of cancers, Helping with weight loss & Boosting libido.

Eventually I began to think that it might be a good idea to start sharing what I learned with more people. I was hoping that there were other individuals in the world that were interested in the health benefits of specific foods, and how they could improve their lives.

This is where the inspiration for my company, Costa Verde, came from.

Since I started this business as a very busy individual, my thought was that there may be others out there who have an interest in health, but don’t have much time to prepare nutritious food.

This is what inspired me to start combining ingredients into powders and supplements that could be easily consumed without extra time to cook a well-balanced meal.

Our food supplements help provide nutrients that we may not get very much with a fast-food diet.

This is how the portable blenders came to fruition. As busy people, we need the ability to take our nutrition on the road , to work , school and everywhere we go ...
