Greetings Investors,
Currently, most providers, including hospitals and physicians, are paid to treat rather than to prevent disease. This is not only dangerous for patients but costly.
For a variety of reasons, many people don't get the preventive care they need. Barriers include cost, not having a primary care provider, living too far from providers, and lack of awareness about recommended preventive services.
Preventive medicine is important because it focuses on the prevention of illness and disease rather than just treating them after they occur. By taking steps to prevent illness and disease, individuals can maintain good health and reduce the risk of developing chronic conditions, which can be costly to manage and may have long-term effects on quality of life
There are many benefits to practicing preventative medicine. For example:
Improved Quality of Life: By adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors, such as eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep, individuals can improve their physical and mental health, leading to a better quality of life.
Lower Healthcare Costs: Preventative measures can help to reduce the need for expensive medical treatments and hospitalizations. By preventing illness before it occurs, individuals can avoid the financial burden of long-term medical care.
Longer Lifespan: By practicing preventative medicine, individuals can reduce their risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. This can lead to a longer, healthier lifespan.
Better Community Health: By promoting healthy behaviors and preventing the spread of infectious diseases, preventative medicine can contribute to better community health and reduce the burden on healthcare systems.
Overall, the importance of preventive medicine lies in its ability to help individuals maintain good health, reduce the risk of chronic conditions, and improve overall health outcomes.
A healing company can help in practicing preventive measures and differentiates itself from traditional healthcare providers by taking a more holistic approach to health and wellness, focusing on the mind, body, and spirit connection. They may also prioritize preventative medicine and lifestyle changes to improve overall health and wellness.
The goal of a healing company is to help individuals improve their physical and mental health, prevent illness and disease, and enhance their overall quality of life. By offering a range of products and services that promote holistic health and wellness, a healing company can provide individuals with tools to help them achieve their health goals
The Healing Company, Inc. (OTC: HLCO) could become the household name in preventative wellness as it aims to deliver the tools needed for people to take control of their health!

Chopra Global was the second acquisition in four months for The Healing Company, with leading plant-based superfoods brand Your Super joining the brand community late last year. It was the marquee first acquisition for the company.
The acquisition was financed through a combination of cash and equity in The Healing Company. Previous investors in Your Super include well known giant PepsiCo and Beyond Meat investor, PowerPlant Partners.
The acquisition was financed through a combination of cash and HLCO equity and will focus on expanding the impact and accessibility of Your Super's leading portfolio of healing products, building on the company's traction to date.
Los Angeles-based health and wellness brand and certified B-Corp Your Super is a next-gen industry leader in plant-based living.
After Co-Founder Michael Kuech was diagnosed with cancer at age 24, his Co-Founder and partner Kristel de Groot began developing superfood and plant protein mixes to boost his immunity, and the company was born out of the couple's mission to improve people's health with the power of super plants.
Your Super's plant-based superfood and protein mixes contain 5-6 naturally dried superfoods. Every ingredient is grown, harvested, 3rd party tested, and packaged 100% sustainably. The ingredients are certified organic, Non-GMO certified, Glyphosate-Free, plant-based and gluten-free. You'll never find any sweeteners, stevia, artificial flavors, fillers, preservatives or additives.
With previous fundraising from PepsiCo and Beyond Meat investor, PowerPlant Partners, Your Super has demonstrated the ability to grow quickly, while maintaining strong margins and a positive EBITDA outlook.
"We are thrilled to enter this new chapter alongside The Healing Company and look forward to growing the healing impact of Your Super with the guidance of such a pioneering team; there couldn't be a better partner to take us to the next level."
Michael Kuech, Co-Founder of Your Super
"Food is medicine, and we now know definitively that plant-based nutrition has immense healing potential as it combats inflammation, which causes more than 80% of chronic disease. Your Super has developed clean, plant-based, superfood mixes that help more people benefit from the healing power of plants, and we're excited to help increase access to their products through this acquisition."
Dr. Deepak Chopra, MD
The Market
Plant-based eating and wellness have both become big businesses. The pandemic fundamentally changed our priorities and health has gone to the top of the list.
Wellness is not a new word but since the pandemic, most of us were forced to take a step back and look at how we’re running our lives and fueling our bodies.
Companies such as Beyond Meat and Oatly command multibillion-dollar valuations. Packaged food titans such as Tyson Foods have launched their own vegan brands, and start-ups such as Impossible Foods are racing to go public. Fitness brands like Peloton also became widely popular.
The global wellness market is expected to grow at 9.9% annually, reaching $7 trillion by 2025.
A new Global Wellness Institute (GWI) report reveals the state of the industry.
Top line: Before the pandemic, wellness was soaring — notably, GWI amended its 2019 figure to $4.9T. Yet, the data following that peak shows the disruptive impact of COVID-19.
- In the period 2017–2019, growth of the wellness economy (6.6%) outpaced global GDP (4%).
- From 2019–2020, the global wellness economy shrunk a whopping 11% compared to global GDP of -2.8%.
- In 2020, the global wellness economy contracted to $4.4T.
The industry is poised to accelerate following what GWI describes as a “global reset” on wellness. And the new five-year forecast is huge.
- The global wellness economy will rebound, hitting $5T in 2021 and $7T by 2025.
- Wellness tourism will lead the recovery over this period at growth of 20.9%, followed by other hospitality like spas and thermal springs.
- Wellness real estate, physical activity, mental wellness, and personal care & beauty will all outpace global GDP.
- Zooming out: More than just money, the pandemic has distinctly changed how consumers view wellness. Over the next five years, the sectors tied to an overall healthy lifestyle shift, both mentally and physically, will be the ones to watch.
The plant-based market has grown significantly in recent years, with a variety of plant-based products and alternatives becoming more widely available. Both millennials and the baby boomer generation are opting for plant-based alternatives for their health.
According to Vantage Market Research, the total Global Plant Based Food Market is estimated to reach USD 78.95 Billion by the year 2028.
People are choosing to eat plant-based for a variety of reasons, including:
Health: Plant-based diets have been shown to have a range of health benefits, including lower rates of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer. Plant-based diets tend to be high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals while being lower in saturated fat and cholesterol.
Environmental sustainability: The meat and dairy industry is a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation, which are major environmental concerns. Choosing to eat plant-based can reduce an individual's carbon footprint and help protect the planet.
Animal welfare: Many people choose plant-based diets as a way to reduce or eliminate their contribution to animal suffering. The production of meat and dairy products often involves animal cruelty and inhumane treatment
