Lulu Ge is the founder of Elix,
an herbal nutritional supplement company that helps women balance
their hormonal cycle. When she stopped taking hormonal birth
control, she found herself unable to move her body for 2-3 days a
month around the time of her cycle—and her doctor’s only suggestion
was to start taking birth control again. Her grandfather
connected her to a renowned Chinese medical expert who examined
her, gave her a list of herbs, and instructed her on how to take
them. Cut to: after a single course of drinking the elixirs, she
experienced zero symptoms any longer! The secret to these medicines
is in how personalized they are, so she looked into how she should
scale that personalization in a way that would be accessible to
more people. Cycle-related symptoms continue to affect up to
90% of women in the US, leading to over a billion hours of lost productivity
annually; yet in
today’s health care system, only 4% of research and development
addresses women’s health issues. Sad trombone.
Lulu shares her process of getting
her business off the ground, and what herbal medicine can do for
your life. Special offer for listeners: use the
