My name is Jose Luis Diaz, and I am the founder of Real Herbal Nourishment. As a Nutritional Therapist, I have spent years helping guide others towards health and wellness through what they put inside their body.

Whole-body health though, is not just what we put on the inside but what we also put on the outside that is just as important. That's why Real Herbal Nourishment makes wholesome cosmetic and skincare products, specially designed to help you look, feel, and be your best.
Throughout my life, I have worn many hats--IT professional, nutritional therapist, entrepreneur--but by far my most important was that of "dad." In 2008, I received custody of my son and became a single father. Adjusting to my new life was a hurdle in itself, but my son's special needs added a layer of challenge: I tried to see the world through new eyes, constantly searching for ways to help my son with his learning disabilities. As my research carried on, it soon became clear that my son's learning disabilities were indicative of something more: autism. Even with an accurate diagnosis, there were no clear answers on how to help him. It was up to me to find ways to help. Over time, therefore, I delved into the world of health and wellness, helping optimize our nutritional intake to maximize our health.
It wasn't just our food, though, that had to change. My quest for optimal wellness for both my son and myself soon made it clear that I also had to detoxify our environment. Product by product, I worked to rid our house of the products filled with toxins and chemicals that brought short-term difficulties and long-term danger. As products with questionable ingredients disappeared from our home, it soon seemed there were no safe products left. We needed alternatives to the body and household products we once relied upon, but the brands sold in stores were too expensive. To save money, I started to make my own natural products: first laundry detergent, then bath soap...
The results of my initial experiments were promising, and as time went on, I continued to refine my recipes. Soon, it wasn't just detergent and soap I was crafting, but a wide variety of herbal skin products. Over months of experimentation, I honed my recipes for the lotions, salves, soaps, and oils my son and I relied upon. Not long after we had begun to rely on my home-made personal care products, it became clear that I should share the products with others. Thus, Real Herbal Nourishment was born to offer others striving to live a more natural, gentle life with simple, pure cosmetics and soaps.
Today, I'm proud to offer products that are truly nourishing: not just for the body, but also for the soul. If you are looking for personal care products that fit into a holistic health outlook, look no further. Real Herbal Nourishment's mission is to support the natural health of you and your loved ones with the safe products that I would use for my family--offered to your family.
