As a former professional athlete, I was constantly seeking natural ways to gain a competitive advantage; I discovered the power of food as functional medicine. I observed how inflammatory foods would hurt my performance: my body and brain would only function at peak performance or recover faster when fueled with whole, clean foods.

So I designed a healing, nutrient-dense, non-inflammatory meal program made with fresh, plant-rich, whole food ingredients and clean preparations made from scratch. Word spread, and soon I was delivering these meals all over Oakland - the Nona Lim brand was born.

Today, we offer a variety of fresh bone broths, soups, rice and ramen noodles. Infused with the Asian flavors and spices of my childhood in Singapore, we focus on whole clean food with no additives, no preservatives, low sodium, and low sugar. Our products are dairy-free, mostly gluten-free, and 100% crap-free.

P.S. I am proud to be a founding member of The F Project, a social-impact initiative aimed at raising the profile and economic success of female founders. Click to learn more!
