About Regeneralive
An independent guide for people who want their wellness to heal the soil too.
Regeneralive is a small editorial team curating the foods, supplements, and wellness products we'd reach for first. Every recommendation passes the same four-question test before it earns a place on this site.
We are reader-supported. We earn affiliate commissions on the links you click. We've also turned down brands who wanted to pay for placement.
The four-question test
How we choose what to recommend.
Formulation respects the science
Real doses. No proprietary blends. The right form of the active ingredient. We read the studies and we read the labels.
Sourcing is real and traceable
For food: we want to know the farm and the practices. For supplements: the source of the active and the contract manufacturer.
Tested for purity
Independent third-party verification of the COA. Heavy-metal testing for greens and seafood. Glyphosate residue testing for grains.
Honest pricing, honest reviews
Premium pricing for a premium thing is fine. Premium pricing for a marketing skin over commodity ingredients is not. We name the difference.
Who we are
Three people, one shared bias toward things that actually work.
Iris Mendoza
Editor-in-Chief
Former food editor at a Bay Area magazine. Spent two years living on a regenerative ranch in Patagonia before launching Regeneralive.
Dr. Liam Park
Lead Reviewer, Functional Medicine
Naturopath with 12 years of clinical practice. Reviews supplement formulations for clinical relevance and dosing.
Naomi Becker
Environmental Health Writer
Investigative journalist focused on environmental contaminants in food, water, and air. Previously at the Environmental Working Group.
Our manifesto
We don't believe in silver bullets. We believe in the thousand small choices a body makes in a week — the eggs, the salt, the water, the sleep, the sun, the way the dirt was managed three counties over before the carrot reached your plate.
— The Regeneralive editors
