Our Mission

We realize that you are going through an important and, sometimes, difficult journey in getting to your better self. We started Uba with a mission to simplify the challenges in eating well-balanced nutritious food in the right portions. We hope to make life routines simpler and more instinctive for you to eat well, stay active and ultimately, be healthy.

Backed by Global Health Guidelines

Our Approach

  • Make things we are proud of

    For everything that we create, we ask ourselves - Is this something that we would love to use ourselves or share with our friends and family? If not, we would rather not build it, even if it can make us a lot of money. That simply won’t give us joy.

  • Delight customers at every step

    We want to give the best to our customers - from highest-quality products to easy-to-return policies to quick reponse customer service because when we have done right by our customers we have the business right.

  • Stay concious of our footprint

    We realize that every sold has an impact on our planet, which is why we use natural and sustainable materials in our products as much as possible and use lean and recyclable packaging to reduce our carbon footprint.

Meet our Partners

We partner with some of the top experts in the Bariatric space to help individuals achieve their health goals. Their expertise and support have been instrumental in shaping our journey, aligning with our values of holistic health and wellness.

NOTE: Coaches are independent practitioners and engagements will be directly with them.
