Our Story

What we do at BePure is new. We combine science with holistic nutrition to personalise your health.

But ‘new’ is what is needed when you’re on a mission to create the future of health and support you, our community, to live lives abundant in health, energy and happiness.

Combining science and functional health testing with a grounding in holistic health and nutrition is what makes our products and services unique.

 

Our philosophy

At BePure, we strongly believe health and wellness is holistic and not focussed on just one thing. In our years of practice we have found what we eat, how we move, how we sleep and how we think all cumulatively affect our health; in both negative and positive ways. The human body is an amazing and complex thing and we like to look at it from all angles so it can function optimally.

We believe in empowering people to adopt a simple, mindful and intuitive approach to wellness avoiding a quick fix mentality which does not address issues at their root cause. Our philosophy focuses on long-term lifestyle changes to support total health.

Health means many things to different people. At BePure health means having the energy do what excites you now and vitality and longevity for the future.

Our mission

Our mission at BePure is to create the future of health. A world where individuals and their families have access to the knowledge, nutrition and support they need to live with optimal health in an environment free of chronic disease and illness.

We strive to help people on their journey as they resolve health concerns and find an abundance of energy to manage stress and thrive in modern life.

Our approach

Our approach is pretty simple. When it comes to optimal health it is all about making informed nutrition and lifestyle decisions based on your unique genetics – because we are all different.  

At BePure, we seek to empower New Zealanders with the education and tools they need for their optimal health. To do this we look at health from all angles and apply a holistic, three-tiered approach. Amazing health is the culmination of nutrition, nutrient support, lifestyle factors, stress factors and appropriate movement. So, we apply gold standard testing, high-quality, high-strength nutritional support and scientific education to inform and guide you on your health journey. 

Our aim at BePure is to educate people about health and provide the tools needed to help achieve optimal health.

We help people identify which foods will support their metabolism to keep their blood sugar levels stable, as this is key to hormone health, energy and weight management. We look at what is driving health concerns, such as organ function or gut health, and then work with individuals to create a personalised, tailored plan.

We understand that no two people are the same and these factors need to be implemented in a way that works for the individual. We work alongside each person to help them find this balance.
