The name “Numa” comes from the Chinese characters from daughter, “nu,” and mother, “ma,” as our product and company was inspired by my mother’s handmade version of one of her favorite childhood treats, which I fell in love with.
From a young age, I suffered from a rare auto-immune disorder that doctors could not explain and medicine could not fix. One day my mother, Jane, said:
“When I was younger, we didn’t have fancy food, but we also didn’t have strange disorders and diseases. Everyone ate their mother’s cooking and got plenty of sun and sweat.”
Inspired, I began to run self-experiments with my diet and exercise regimes – I quit sugar for a month, I exercised for 1-2 hours a day, I only ate vegetables and lean meats and would spend 1-2 hours a day cooking and miraculously, I saw improvement. But I realized this wasn’t sustainable as I was also leading a busy life and loved sweets too much. It was then that my mother started hand-making these delectably milky and chewy sweet treats she grew up with and I realized not only how delicious they were, but also how nutritious and travel friendly.
