About us
Zupe was born from our desire to complement the conventional healthcare model—a system largely focused on addressing illness rather than promoting ongoing health, peak performance, or longevity. Traditional healthcare often comes with a high cost. Zupe advocates for a different approach. We champion the idea that open-source, evidence-backed methods, along with accessible products and resources, can empower individuals to reach their Superhuman potential affordably and effectively.
