In early 2010 180 Nutrition was born, an online health and wellness business born in beachside Coogee, Australia by two friends out of frustration with an unhealthy and confused nation. Confused with mainstream nutritional advice that didn’t seem to work, and unhealthy from the highly processed ‘healthy foods’ that were part of the problem. Our journey began working with a small charity that were
helping people with chronic diseases. A team of ‘renegade’ health professionals that had decided to join forces and use whole food nutrition and weight bearing exercises as their prescribed therapy. The results were staggering and it quickly highlighted how powerful food and exercise can be if prescribed correctly. We were tasked with helping them with their supplementation where we quickly discovered a roadblock…
The Problem
Trying to provide a protein supplement to help with their recovery after exercise was near impossible. Most high street options were full of chemicals, artificial flavourings and sweeteners. Misinformation about what to eat for better health was endless. Mainstream advice was based on old and flawed science and wasn’t working. What if everything we knew about food and exercise was wrong? Something had to change…
