From the Depths: An Exclusive Interview with Recova®'s Founder on Marine Essence for Health
In the bustling city of Singapore, a new wave of wellness is taking shape. Recova®, a brand dedicated to bringing the healing power of the sea to daily wellness routines, has captured the attention of health enthusiasts worldwide. We sat down with Gabrielle Seet, the visionary founder of Recova®, to delve into the origins, values, and purpose of this innovative company.
Who is Gabrielle Seet and How Was Recova® Created?
Gabrielle is a passionate entrepreneur deeply committed to natural health. She is the visionary behind Recova®, a brand integrating the healing power of marine ingredients into daily wellness routines. With a rich background in the mother and baby industry, Gabrielle also founded Hoomie Inc Pte Ltd in 2018 and led successful brands like Legendairy Milk and Ceres Chill into the Singapore and Malaysia market. She shares the story of how Recova® came to be, beginning from her personal quest for a sustainable way to combat fatigue as a working mother.
“After spending six years in the mother and baby industry, focusing on harnessing the power of herbs to help mothers in lactation and their baby’s health, I found myself entering the next phase of life: ageing. Balancing exercise, entrepreneurship, and parenting took a toll on my body, and I was in search of products that could genuinely help,” the mother of two in her mid thirties explains.
Origins: The Birth of Recova®
An old friend from France introduced Gabrielle to phycocyanin, a powerful active ingredient in Spirulina. “My curiosity was sparked,” she recalls, “and I realised its potential to transform health and wellness.” This discovery ignited the creation of Recova®, a brand committed to harnessing the purest marine ingredients to enhance overall well-being.
Vision: Harnessing the Power of the Sea
Recova®'s vision is clear: to bring the healing power of the sea to every home. Gabrielle emphasises the importance of using premium marine-based ingredients sourced from the finest marine environments in Guerandé, France, famed for its salt marshes.
“Our vision is to elevate people's well-being by providing them with products that are not only effective but also derived from the purest marine sources. The waters of Brittany, France, are renowned for their clarity and nutrient richness, making them the perfect source for our extracts. We believe in the transformative power of nature and are committed to unlocking its potential for optimal health.”
Mission: Commitment to Quality and Sustainability
Recova®'s mission revolves around quality, sustainability, and innovation. Gabrielle highlights the company's dedication to these core values.
“Quality is at the heart of everything we do. Our products are pure, potent, and free from harmful additives, undergoing rigorous testing to ensure they meet the highest standards of purity and potency. Sustainability is equally important to us. We are dedicated to sustainable practices, ensuring that our sourcing and production methods respect and preserve the marine ecosystem. Innovation drives us to continually explore new ways to harness marine ingredients and deliver their benefits to our customers."
Flagship Products: Sacred Essence™ and Sacred Shine™
Recova® 's flagship products, Sacred Essence™ and Sacred Shine™, showcase the brand's commitment to excellence. Sacred Essence™ blends concentrated Phycocyanin from Spirulina and ionised Marine Magnesium to support recovery, boost energy, and enhance overall health. Sacred Shine™ focuses on rejuvenating body, mind, and skin health through its unique formulation of marine-sourced magnesium and hydrolyzed type II collagen peptides.
Why are liquid extract vitamins important to you?
Liquid vitamins hold a special place for Gabrielle Seet, she explains, "I am thrilled to introduce these liquid supplements because I personally dislike taking pills. Every day, I look forward to my shot of 'blue power' Sacred Essence in the morning with a cup of water. It energises me for the day, even after a long night. The liquid formulation also allows me to give it to my boys too, who are 4 and 6 years old."
What Excites You the Most About Running Recova?
Gabrielle’s enthusiasm for Recova® is palpable. She highlights the personal benefits she experiences, noting, “Usually, I work late into the evening on my phone, which makes it hard to shut down mentally. With the help of our Marine Magnesium formula, I usually fall asleep within 30 minutes.” Gabrielle’s passion extends beyond her own experience, as she observes the positive impact on her loved ones. “Witnessing the results firsthand and seeing the positive impact on people dear to me, like my ageing parents, the reason why we added our collagen peptides to our magnesium formula, is because my parents used to complain about joint pain, the formulas gets me really excited to share our products with the rest of the world as it has helped with my family!".
What do you hope that Recova® provides to people?
Gabrielle has clear hopes for what her brand can offer to people. "I hope that Recova® provides people with a natural, effective way to enhance their overall health and well-being,"
She emphasises the importance of quality and purity. "I want our customers to feel confident that they are getting the highest quality ingredients, free from harmful additives. Our commitment to using pure, marine-sourced nutrients from the pristine waters of Brittany, France, ensures that our products are not only effective but also safe and sustainable. I will only give to you what I will give to my own children."
She also highlights the convenience of liquid supplements. "I hope that Recova® makes it easier for people to incorporate essential nutrients into their daily routines since they can simply add it to their first and last glass of water everyday.”
