Because we all deserve to live a healthy life con sazón!

“We are more than a brand, we are familia.”

Our Story

As a Latina Woman, seeking for healthy alternatives to my favorite foods, I felt underrepresented in the Health, Wellness, and Nutrition world. I couldn’t find much out there that would fit my needs. After studying at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and learning how food can impact our health, I started re-creating my favorite Puerto Rican foods in a healthy way.

Soon, my friends and family started asking me for my tips and recommendations. That is when I discovered there was a need in our community. I founded my blog nutritiondork.com as a place where I could share my health and wellness journey, wellness tips, coaching services, resources, and healthy recipes.

Shortly after, I decided to write a cookbook to share not only my recipes, but tips on how to choose healthy ingredients, how to combine food for a healthy digestion, and more. While working on the cookbook it ignited my passion for sharing the love for my culture and its wonderful cuisine. During this journey, I discovered that there weren’t many healthy options for our cultural staple seasonings. Most brands in stores contain artificial ingredients and preservatives. While they may be used for looks and shelf life, they certainly don’t add to our health. Leaving not much room for natural ingredients which provide the real flavor #PuroSabor.
