Respiratory issues and Alisa, founder + CEO of Kindroot, have been side by side since childhood. And boring lozenges loaded with sugar and irritants? They hadn’t changed. After a few work travel mishaps with messy adaptogenic powders...and after one too many crackly cough drops, it clicked. She became an herbalist apprentice, began assembling one gem of a team and Kindroot continues to grow!

Fun Fact: Gluten-free, vegan lozenge with only 2 g of sugar, hand-poured in Los Angeles.
