Our Story
NOLA Naturals LLC started with the desire of providing truly natural products and promoting a healthy lifestyle to all encountered. After learning about the additives and chemicals that are infused into just about everything we consume and use, I was forced to re-evaluate and try to do my part to foster a natural and healthier way of living for me and everyone else.
In 2018, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Then shortly after I lost my hair and learned it was Alopecia which is also autoimmunity. I was only in my early 40s and my health seemed to be taking a turn. I did not want to take medications so I decided to do my own research about autoimmunity and how to naturally treat or manage them. While doing my research, I discovered the products we use every day in our hair, on our skin, cleaning supplies and foods are all linked to causing autoimmune diseases. Conventional body-care products can be overloaded with harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrances, parabens, preservatives, microbeads and other dubious ingredients. With this knowledge and wanting to heal from my autoimmune issue, I knew that I had to keep myself from further toxic contamination. I immediately stop using products with harmful chemicals starting with food first, then my hair products and my body products. Did you know that women are getting autoimmunity more than men and at a faster rate? It is said 75% of all autoimmune patients are women. Why? It is because the average woman puts around 168 or more chemicals into her body everyday with lotion, lipstick, nail polish, hair
products, cleaning supplies etc. Since my body was in trouble, I began to research natural living, hair care, skin care etc. This is
where I learned about natural body moisturizers such as body butters, oils and soap. I began adding this no chemicals regimen to my daily routine and my hair has now grown back from the damage of Alopecia. I can see improvement in my scalp and skin. My skin has never glowed and felt as soft as it does now. I can see a better me now with nature’s help and I wanted to help others kick the harsh toxic chemicals from their everyday routine. Remember our skin is the biggest organ on our body, what we put on it will be internalized.
My desire now is to help people minimize the amount of chemicals they put into their bodies on the daily basis.
