One Man’s Vision

Today Univera is the central piece of a large global organization, but in the beginning it was just a man and a vision. The man was YunHo Lee, a successful Korean businessman. The vision was to extract the best of nature and then bring the benefits to the world. Univera was founded as a result of a simple gift. And that model is still what we emulate today.

Mr. Lee had long suffered from poor health and found no relief in conventional medicine. When a dear friend gave him the gift of juice from an Aloe vera plant, Lee was skeptical. But he tried taking the juice and the result was, in his words, “a miraculous recovery.”

Amazed, Mr. Lee used his financial success to invest in exploring the ethnobotanical properties of the plant kingdom. His goal was to discover more about the connection between the medicinal power of nature’s bounty and the body’s incredible power of renewal and to bring that power to the world. He had no idea just how successful he’d be.
