Meet the Team

The founders of An Apple a Day met over a decade ago while completing their respective degrees in Biochemistry at McGill University, Canada. They went on to specialize in two different but highly complementary fields: gourmet cuisine and naturopathic medicine. Today, their unique partnership enables An Apple a Day to deliver Singapore’s only complete healthy living solution.
