Founder of Jboocha Shares How Kombucha Healed Her Skin Condition

Since the pandemic, it's safe to say that we've become more conscious about our health. FYI, 1 in 5 Malaysians have diabetes and over 50% of Malaysian adults are overweight. Jia Yi has always been an advocate for the people, a passion that drove her pursuit of a legal career. However, when she discovered kombucha and experienced its magic first-hand, she ditched the heels and blazers to stand for hours on end by the kitchen counter neutering her SCOBY that would eventually give rise to this bottled healthy luxury: Kombucha.

“I had the courage to walk out of my corporate career, start my passion project which translated into a business.” - Jia Yi Low
