SipZen Story.

Two years ago, I was diagnosed with PCOS and Hashimoto’s disease. Like many women, I was given three options: birth control, Ozempic, or Synthroid. None felt right. One made me nauseous, and the others didn’t feel like healing, just managing.

So I went back to my roots.


Being raised Chinese-American, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) wasn’t an alternative in our home, it was a daily rhythm. My parents sought herbal formulas and food-based remedies not just to treat symptoms, but to maintain long-term balance. Morning teas, soups, and tonics were a regular part of life. Returning to that philosophy didn’t feel like a last resort, it felt like coming home.

In TCM, there’s a philosophy: “You’re not ill, you’re out of balance.” That mindset changed everything. With the help of botanicals and time-tested herbal remedies, my body began to heal. My symptoms faded. And for the first time in a long time, I felt… normal.

Your daily health ritual shouldn’t make you nauseous, anxious, or feel like a chore. If it spikes your cortisol or adds more stress, it’s missing the point of wellness entirely.

What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?

TCM is one of the oldest healthcare systems in the world, developed over thousands of years through observation, practice, and refinement. It includes herbal medicine, acupuncture, tai chi, gua sha, and nutrition-based approaches. In much of Asia, TCM and Western medicine are practiced side by side, often integrated in hospitals and health systems.

While rooted in ancient wisdom, TCM is increasingly studied in modern clinical settings, with growing evidence to support its effectiveness in areas like digestion, hormonal health, mood regulation, and immune support. It’s not about quick fixes, it’s about realignment, longevity, and harmony with the body’s natural rhythms.

So I created SipZen.

A line of lightly sparkling, fruity teas powered by botanicals, adaptogens, and nootropics, inspired by TCM, and made to restore balance naturally.

This isn’t a prescription. This won’t cure all. I’m not a doctor. But I am someone who’s been through the system, found something more to add to my daily routine, and wanted to share what has worked for me and so many others.

Each SipZen drink is:

  • Delicious and functional (no pill boxes required)
  • Rooted in ancient wellness practices
  • Designed to support energy, calm, focus, digestion, and hormonal balance
  • A non-alcoholic, health-forward mixer or daily tonic
  • Giving back. 1% of proceeds go to marine restoration 

From Pill Bottles to Balance in a Bottle

SipZen is made for people who live with intention and want their wellness routine to match.

Whether you’re:

  •  An athlete or supplement-savvy gym-goer looking to simplify your stack
  •  A high-performing professional seeking calm, focused energy without the crash
  • A wellness explorer curious about time-tested herbal solutions
  • Or simply someone craving a ritual that brings your body back into balance

SipZen offers a refreshing, functional alternative to the pill box, coffee jitters, and synthetic boosters.

Because balance isn’t just a goal, it’s a lifestyle. Most of us are overstimulated, overtired, and out of rhythm, hormonal imbalances affect millions, often silently, and we consume more caffeine than our bodies were ever meant to handle.

SipZen offers a gentler way.
A more thoughtful way.
A natural, everyday ritual to help you feel like yourself again.

Because balance isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity.
