We’re Juwon & Aaron, co-founders of Khandu Tea. We’re busy dads who have been friends since our college days. As things have gotten busier with work, family and to-dos, our health took a backseat. More sitting at desks all day and little to no exercise. More fast food and sugary treats. And many sleepless nights taking care of crying babies and toddlers.
All of this led to gaining weight and feeling exhausted all the time. I could barely recognize the man in the mirror. My annual blood test results were alarming. I had to make some serious lifestyle changes or else I was headed full speed on the highway toward disease, health complications and early death.
The long road back to good health begins with a single step. One daily habit we got into was the 2000+ year old tradition of tea!
The Challenge
Life gets hectic, there is always more to do.
And we are bombarded with highly processed convenience foods that are cheap in the moment, but can hurt our health over time. Shortcuts like energy drinks and sodas give you a caffeine bump and taste great because of the buckets of sugar and artificial ingredients that are dumped into them.
Did you know that African Americans are twice as likely to die from diabetes?* The short term boost is not worth the long term health risks.
Our Solution
Khandu Tea is a leap in the right direction! By replacing energy drinks and sugary lattes with delicious tea blends, we provide a healthy alternative. We want to help you feel better and live longer.
We Believe
We believe that with tea and the Khandu lifestyle (mental health, exercise, diet and sleep) you can have a great life!
