H7 Team

The people behind Healthy7

Two founders with one frustration about supplements, and the scientists, pharmacists and doctors who turned it into a formula the body can actually use.

2 founders, 8 experts, 1 formula. Developed with professors at the University of Iceland.2 founders, 8 experts, 1 formula.

Who started Healthy7, and why

  • Biomedical scientist
  • Formula lead

As a biomedical scientist, Bastiaan spent years looking at how nutrients actually behave once they enter the body. The conclusion was uncomfortable: a large part of what people take in standard supplement form never reaches the cells that need it.

Healthy7 started as his answer. A daily formula built around fermentation, so the body receives nutrients in a form it recognises, developed together with scientists, pharmacists and doctors.

  • Culinary author

Dagny has spent her career showing people that healthy food can be a pleasure, not a chore. As a TV chef and culinary author she saw how hard it is to cover every nutritional base with food alone, every single day.

With Healthy7 she brought the kitchen perspective into the formula: a daily ritual that tastes good, fits into real life and complements a varied, balanced diet.

“A daily ritual only works if you actually look forward to it.”

Why we started

It is not about what you take.

It is about what your body can do with it. That one sentence is why Healthy7 exists.

  1. 01

    The problem

    Most supplements are only partly absorbed. Many plant bioactives sit locked inside complex structures and first have to be released and converted. The problem is rarely the ingredients, it is the uptake.

  2. 02

    The idea

    Fermentation is the answer. With H7 Fermentation Technology™, selected plant ingredients are fermented under controlled conditions before you take them: complex plant structures are broken down, bioactives become more available, smaller metabolites are formed and the gut environment is supported.

  3. 03

    The formula

    Healthy7 combines fermentation with carefully chosen nutrient forms and microbiome support in one daily formula. H7 Fermentation Technology™, for better absorption.
