Our Journey
Born in India, the birthplace of Yoga, Prasoon started a food company after successfully exiting his first startup. Life as an entrepreneur is always challenging, and Prasoon started practicing Yoga to solve his wellness issues. That’s when he was introduced to the age-old food science of Yogic nutrition by his Yoga teacher, to complement his yogic performance.
But he faced a lot of difficulty in finding these food products with authentic ingredients and desired benefits. Prasoon and Dhawal went on a mission to develop these food products for themselves and the world. They decided to reinvent this science into daily nutrition products for yoga lovers. And thus, Food Yoga was born.
