hi, there!
I'm John, and for almost a decade, I've been on a personal journey to find foods I can trust. After being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis, I developed a very unhealthy relationship with food, using strong prescription medication to mask my symptoms. However, a few years later, I was diagnosed with a rare stage three cancer at 27. At this moment, I knew I needed to reevaluate my view of food. Instead of it being the enemy, it needed to be my medicine.
As I searched for foods that would support my body and my gut health, I discovered that it was nearly impossible to find options that wouldn't trigger my symptoms. It was this frustration that led me to create Better Blends, a thoughtful nutrition company that keeps those with IBS and gut sensitivities top of mind.
At Better Blends, we want you to trust food again and, most importantly, love your gut. We're proud to offer a range of low-FODMAP products that are safe, healthy, and made with care. Join us on our mission to make nutrition you can trust.
our mission
