To combine cutting edge science with medicinal plant research to help you live your healthiest life!
Inspired by his own miraculous experience with Aloe vera, Yunho Lee created Univera to bring these benefits to the world.
Mr. Lee used all his resources to drive plant-based research. His vision has become our reality. Unparalleled research and development efforts have given us the tools we need today to provide you with the absolute best of nature.
You have the choice to continue to replicate damaged cells that accelerate the aging process or you can replicate healthy, vibrant cells that keep you feeling like the best you.
Our products not only come from the highest standard in research, development, and manufacturing, they are also formulated and studied by a team of industry experts to improve your health on a cellular level.
There is a delicate balance of damage and repair happening in your body this very second. Everyday stresses, poor eating habits, insufficient exercise, overexercising, and pollution all contribute to a premature acceleration of cellular damage that happens at any age.
Through our family of companies, we have unmatched R&D, Manufacturing, and Quality Control capabilities including:
A team of dedicated independent healthcare professionals that aid Univera in our mission to provide premium, efficacious, plant-based products.
"Two words – it works! I took Univera and it rocked my world. Because of my own experience, I decided to share it with other people. Now I've had thousands of unbelievable life-changing experiences with my patients."
"I investigated the science and began learning about regenerative nutrition. Because the product worked so well, I now know that creating a thriving metabolism is the cornerstone of empowering my body to grow stronger and feel younger and more capable every day!"
"Univera is a company that is truly doing something nobody else does, working with genomics and doing the research independently, not just going with the latest trends. This is the real stuff."
"I was attracted to the spirit of Yunho Lee and Bill Lee, to Univera's remarkable scientific engine and the design intelligence and efficacy of the Univera products."
"When I toured the 80,000 square foot plant research facility I was so impressed! Never before had I seen plant research at this level. Together with their Sister Companies, Univera uses the most advanced science to research medicinal plants and create formulas that help the human body repair itself. This combined with the heart of servant leadership from the owner, Bill Lee, is why Univera is the one and only company I will recommend to my clients and my family."
"I have trained over 15,000 clients and athletes to transform their mind, body, and spirit. Over the past 14 years what I have found is Univera is the BEST tool to help them reach and maintain goals. Most people are tired, stressed, and their body aches. The last thing they want to add to their daily planner is a wellness program, until their cells get the nutrients they need to perform at their highest and best. I will forever be grateful for Bill Lee and his legacy!"
"I have always believed in our body's miraculous ability to repair and I connected with Univera's language of cellular renewal and regeneration. When I was a school nurse, I would envision how plant based nutrients would be life changing for our children. Little did I know how much it would change my life personally."
"I offer Univera because when I took the products it changed my life. Here was a company that guaranteed every dose was the same, where the ingredients were listed on the label. In 11 years I haven't looked back."
"As a holistic nutritionist I am interested in much more than just the final product. I am curious about how that product was made, the type of farming practices used, how people are being treated, etc. Univera has incredible integrity in every single step of the process in creating these unique, science-based, life-changing products. Once I saw the whole picture of Univera it was an obvious choice to combine my skills with these products and this company."
"In my pursuit of optimal health I was always looking for a product that not only had great, breakthrough science but also had a profound positive effect on the body. I found that in Univera. The consistent positive responses that I got were far better than any other products that I had used. This was not only true for myself and my loved ones but also with the many people that I was helping to coach to better health."
