The Anti-Na Story
Kristen learned about social impact business models in her Nonprofit Management Class, and this opened the door to Anti-Na's mission to give back to the community.
In the same class, Kristen connected with Yoli, the founder of Cancer Kinship. This non-profit organization empowers cancer patients to face the disease with the help of group support, education, and socialization provided by compassionate volunteers and staff.
Kristen's mother is a cancer survivor, and survivorship is a topic and advocacy that has long been near and dear to her heart. She has seen firsthand the hardships faced by patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Her mother was a few months away from retirement when she got her diagnosis… However, Kristen knew other women who were diagnosed at thirty and were forced to go to work right after their chemo appointments.
The intense chemotherapy-induced nausea they experienced caused a great deal of discomfort. Unfortunately, the prescribed nausea drug is extremely strong and causes terrible migraines — many patients choose to endure extreme nausea instead.
This sparked the connection between Kristen's anti-altitude sickness solution and Anti-Na's long-term mission and vision.
What's more, cancer survivors can experience nausea and fatigue for ten years after their treatments. They deserve affordable, accessible, and all-natural nausea relief solutions that will not cause any extreme side effects.
Once Kristen had the first Anti-Na ginger chews in hand, she wasted no time distributing them — and to her delight, the chews helped!
The Anti-Na pilot chews were not abrasive on their mouths like other hard ginger candies. Patients could take fewer breaks, be more productive, and eating became much less of a burden because of the lack of nausea throughout the day.
With this feedback, Kristen took on the mission to get Anti-Na natural nausea relief into the hands of those who need it the most.
Every purchase supports our SIPS for Support program, bringing comfort to cancer patients when they need it most.
Our Area of Focus
Kristen knew the company she would start would give back to the community. Since her chews provided relief to the nausea felt by patients undergoing chemotherapy, she knew she could help improve the quality of their lives in some way. Thus, Chews4Charity was born.
From the beginning, Anti-Na has been working hand in hand with local cancer organizations to make the chews available to patients. In collaboration with Cancer Kinship and The Breast Cancer Fundraiser, the Chews4Charity campaign donates one chew for every $2 that it raises. To date, the campaign has donated hundreds of Anti-Na chews to cancer patients to help alleviate their symptoms.
Cancer Kinship also includes Anti-Na chews in the care packages that they provide to newly diagnosed cancer patients.
Anti-Na chews also naturally replenish depleted energy. They have helped so many people: patients undergoing chemotherapy, pregnant women experiencing morning sickness, travel enthusiasts and adventurers who suffer from altitude sickness or motion sickness, and even those who experience hangovers.
Kristen and everyone at Anti-na aims to help the strong, driven, family caretakers find a safe solution to stay motivated, energized, and ready to take on the world.
