Chronic illnesses touch every facet of a patient's everyday life. That is especially true for digestive diseases which cause many patients to micromanage their food intake and go on specialized diets. For many sufferers of IBD and IBS, it is very difficult to digest most caffeine sources with coffee being completely intolerable. With vitamin deficiencies and medications that can cause extreme fatigue, energy levels are already a problem for IBD and IBS patients.
Our founder, who is an IBD patient, has always struggled with low energy levels and suffered through the negative effects of coffee on his body for years thinking there was no other way. Some doctors suggested tea, but tea created the same digestive issues and he didn't like the taste. Energy drinks seemed like a promising option, but they were packed with either artificial sugars or added sugars which led to the same issues as coffee.
Fed up with waking up 2-3 hours before leaving the house so his body could digest the morning coffee, he ventured out to find a gut healthy alternative. And so, Flova was born, and to this day he starts every morning with a Flova in hand.
Millions of Americans are suffering in silence from Chronic Diseases. You pass them everyday at the supermarket, at restaurants, in your school, at the park, and at your workplace. They are fighting a lifelong battle that no one else can see, and mostly they just want to live a normal life.
