Co-Founder of Health-Ade Kombucha, Daina Trout: Starting Your Own Business and Following Your Gut

Daina Trout is the CEO and Co-Founder of Health-Ade Kombucha, my ultimate favorite kombucha brand. Daina earned her masters’ degrees in Nutrition and in Public Health from Tufts University, and decided to pursue her passion for “real” food and brew the best-tasting, highest quality kombucha on the market. Under her fearless leadership, Health-Ade has grown from a small production beverage made in her apartment and sold at local farmers markets into the fastest growing brand in the category three years in a row. Health-Ade, with its slogan, “follow your gut” is considered one of the dominant brands in the rapidly growing global market for the fermented tea.
