A lived story
Our founder’s life in Peru inspires the brand and the questions we started with.
ZANANAYA · NUTRITION WITH A STORY
Meet RISE. A blueberry-flavoured botanical blend, born from a personal journey and developed with food engineers and scientists.
Our first blend. Currently in development.

INTRODUCING RISE
A moment for yourself, wherever you are in life.
RISE brings roots, fruits, herbs and algae together in a blueberry-flavoured powder. Its inspiration began in Peru; its development brings that story together with the expertise of food engineers and scientists.
We want you to know what is inside, why it is there, and what is known about each ingredient. That clarity is part of the ritual.

PERU · WHERE THE STORY BEGANA NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER
I lived in Peru for ten years, through my own perimenopause and menopause. The vibrancy of the women I met in the mountains stayed with me. It sparked my curiosity about their relationship with food, the land and the rhythms of life.
That curiosity led me to work with food engineers and scientists to create a proprietary blend. What began as a personal exploration became Zananaya. RISE is our first chapter.

OUR APPROACH
Our founder’s life in Peru inspires the brand and the questions we started with.
The blend has been created with food engineers and scientists. Final validation is still in progress.
We share our ingredients and distinguish traditional use, nutritional roles and the available evidence.
RISE is Zananaya’s first blueberry-flavoured powder blend, developed with food engineers and scientists. The current formulation contains 13 ingredients. The product is still in development and is not yet available to buy.
Those stages are part of our founder’s story, and women in midlife are central to the inspiration. RISE is being developed for adults. It is not presented as a treatment for menopause symptoms or as a replacement for prescribed care.
We have not established those effects for the finished blend. Some ingredients have nutritional roles or preliminary research behind them, but that does not demonstrate a benefit from RISE. Our ingredient guide explains what is known and where the limits are.
Yes. The current formulation includes panela, an unrefined cane sugar used for sweetness. Final nutrition information will be provided when validated.
No. RISE contains ashwagandha, which should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding and is not recommended for people with thyroid or autoimmune disorders or around surgery. It can interact with medicines; rare liver injury has been reported. Seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional if you take medicines or have a health condition. Suitability, directions and warnings for the final RISE product are still being finalised.
