Our Story
Co-Founder Story! I'm Melanie and this is my company and story!
Did you know that the first, original soft drinks created were health tonics?
Over a century ago, Ginger Ale, Root Beer and others were made by pharmacists (apothecaries) and sold for their medicinal benefits. They were fermented with botanicls.
Since 2012, I myself struggled with chronic health issues that seemed insourmountable. I tried everything to cure myself- and finally completely stopped eating sugar and even solid foods to try healing.
The root causes? A severely imbalanced gut, a digestive disorder. I didn’t realize how deeply our gut's health and gut balance affects our entire well-being, it affects even sleep, energy, mood and other body functions.
After a medical trip to Germany to find answers, a doctor taugh me that our “gut is our second brain”. My focus changed. Upon returning to Canada. I changed by lifestyle and diet.
It wasn't an easy path to cure. I felt alone and empathised with many people who isolate themselves dure to health. My first thought: why don't we have healthy alternatives to delicious foods and drinks that bring people together?
My second thought:
My mission began: If I couldn't find it, I would make it. I turned my isolation to productivity: so, started mixing & and fermenting ingredients to create BROO! For me my first impulse was creating a health tonic with benefits for my gut, without the destructive componenets. A delicious brew that is health-supportive and that was beneficial was born!
II wanted to bring opportunity and options to people with sensitivities.
My obsession with combining beenfits, a cure and taste became reality in the first Broo Prototypes.
These aren’t just drinks. They’re a life style of well-being, joy, and connection—one sip at a time.
Cheers to your gut, your sleep, and your second brain.
My mission was born: Give people life options through food and beverages that capture all the taste we love with none of the destructive health negative aspects. A line of beneficial gut-supporting Soft drinks that impress both with the flavour, lack of destructive components and benefits.
