01.02 Quel est le problème principal que vous essayez de résoudre ?

In 2022 , I was working a as community pharmacist in a community pharmacy in Lagos state , my legs suddenly began to swell so I went to the hospital. The doctor stated it was a kidney problem. After several tests he discovered it was stress. I was asked to be on 2 weeks bed rest but my boss refused because I was the manager of the store and the chief pharmacist at that time . Then I began to find solutions to help relieve stress. After 8 months of research and development I came up with vitamaa wellness tea and my legs went back to normal. I also observed that young people from aged 25 and above were coming to check their blood sugar and blood pressure and it was elevated. I became concerned and I knew one of the causes was stress. The rate of processed food and sugar containing snacks and drinks is in the high. Also drugs we take that has a several side effects and people are becoming aware of this . We want to stop the increase of sicknesses cost by lifestyle .
