For me, like for many, food was nothing more than a way to acquire energy. I enjoyed eating, without worrying too much.

Until one day everything changed . At the age of 21, when I was still studying Business Administration and Law, I was diagnosed with appendicitis that became complicated and led to very serious peritonitis. To save my life, the surgeons had to resection a meter of intestine.

This situation made me understand that food is much more than filling the body's energy reserves and that it directly affects my general well-being. In fact, what we eat is one of the few things we can control as humans for good health (along with exercise and rest.

My body began to react differently depending on what I consumed . When I ate fresh, nutritious and organic foods I felt better than when they were ultra-processed or with added sugars and sweeteners.

Thanks to this, I entered the world of healthy eating and, together with my partner and friend Loan, we formed Baïa Food.

In my case, I decided to graduate in Pharmacy because I wanted to help others. There I developed a passion for medicinal plants and their therapeutic power.

It was during a research stay at the University of Utrecht, when I first heard about the "Miracle Berry" . This fruit has a protein, miraculin, with an almost magical effect (hence its name!) capable of transforming the sour taste into sweet (yes, you drink the berry, then lemon juice, and... the juice tastes sweet!).

That something like this existed in nature left me speechless . I shared it with Guille and we went to Ghana to try it. We were amazed at the enormous power it had over the sense of taste and we began to glimpse all the possible applications of this new food...and we embarked with everything to set up Baïa Food, betting on health through nutrition.

Finally, in 2022, after many studies to demonstrate its safety, we have received authorization from the European Commission to be able to market this powdered berry as a dietary supplement.
