Doing so allows Mayama Wellness to provide our customers with only the most effective products proven to support them in their wellness journey.

Their edible items are all USDA-certified organic and our cotton sateen fabric is GOTS-certified organic, ensuring that they meet the strictest standards for natural, non-toxic processes for growing, processing, and handling of ingredients and material.

Founding Story

Sonia Gupta started this company inspired by her own pregnancy experiences, her background in public health and business (BA from Yale, MPH from Johns Hopkins, MBA from MIT), and her decade-plus experience working to improve the health of vulnerable populations. In fact, she feel so passionately about this cause and the social potential of Mayama Wellness that she has delayed her matriculation to Stanford School of Medicine in order to launch and grow the initiative. In the future, she hopes to further support pregnant people through her clinical work as a physician.
