Why Zuma Exists

We make medicine for the cell — never for the shelf.

For thousands of years, healers used whole plants — root, leaf, and bark — as complete medicine, grown in living soil. Then the supplement industry took them apart: isolating single compounds, packing them with fillers, and selling the marketing instead of the medicine. Potency lost to profit.

Zuma is the correction. We formulate with whole plants, extract them for true full-spectrum potency, and engineer absorption into every bottle — because an ingredient your body can’t actually use was never an ingredient at all.

Every formula traces back to a working clinic, not a marketing meeting. Every batch is third-party tested. Every result is published in the open.

To put clinical-grade, whole-plant medicine — once reserved for a private practice — into the hands of everyone ready to heal the root, not mask the symptom.

Root-cause health, made the whole-plant way.
What We Specialize In

Root-cause health, made the whole-plant way.

Not symptom-masking pills. Whole-plant, full-spectrum formulas built to address the cause — and we’d rather show you than tell you.

Whole Plants, Full Spectrum

Dual-extracted to capture the complete plant; never isolated compounds or synthetic fillers.

Formulated and extracted in-house in Idaho. Not white-labeled. Not outsourced.

Verifiable

Tested on Every Batch

Third-party lab tested for heavy metals, contaminants, and potency; COA published on every product page.

Built as Protocols

Designed to work as root-cause regimens, not one-off single-symptom pills.

Every line above is something you can check. That’s the whole point.

Meet the Founders

“Two people. One obsession: making supplements that actually work.”

Richard Helfrich
Co-Founder

Richard Helfrich

Master Herbalist & Integrative Health Practitioner

Richard came to herbal medicine the hard way — healing his own heart condition, then spending forty years in clinical practice across thousands of one-on-one cases. A formulation library refined across decades of working alongside PhDs, MDs, and researchers — and tested in the only environment that actually matters: real people, real bodies, real outcomes. A master herbalist and author of four books published in the US and Europe, Richard has built protocols for a private clientele that includes international public figures, athletes, and entertainers. Most supplement brands are designed in marketing meetings. Zuma’s were designed across forty years of watching what works.

Jordan Dorn
Co-Founder & CEO

Jordan Dorn

Certified Holistic Nutritionist

A holistic nutritionist who’s been obsessed with how the body works since he had to be. Severe GI issues as a kid sent Jordan down a path most people never find — one that led him to Richard, an eight-year mentorship under a master herbalist, functional medicine training, and over a decade of research into absorption science, biohacking, and longevity. He didn’t license these formulas. He learned them — alongside the man who created them — and now translates four decades of clinical work into something the rest of us can actually use.

If we’re going to create this line together, I only want to create the best. Purpose-driven products that actually work.

Led by two. Backed by the best.
The Circle Behind the Formulas

Led by two. Backed by the best.

For our most specialized formulas, Richard and Jordan collaborate with a small, hand-picked circle of the most respected formulators alive in their fields. Most work quietly, by choice. What they share is a level of mastery you can feel in the bottle.

The Second-Generation Herbalist

Select botanicals are crafted by a second-generation master herbalist, raised inside a family herbal house that has hand-extracted tinctures for half a century — trained in methods handed down through one of the most respected herbal lineages in the country.

The Biodynamic Ayurvedic Formulator

Our adaptogenic and Ayurvedic formulas come from a lifelong student of biodynamic and Ayurvedic tradition — sourcing botanicals from the world’s highest mountain regions and crafting living, fully bioavailable extracts refined over decades.

The Japanese Superfood Specialist

Our mushroom and superfood line is made by a Japanese superfood-science house — decades devoted to a single patented organic strain, cultivated and tested to a standard physicians trust.

The Amino-Acid Pioneer

Our free-form amino formulas come from the lab of a chemist who helped bring clinical amino-acid therapy to America — four decades pioneering full-spectrum, pharmaceutical-grade formulation.

We bring the world’s best to one table — so you don’t have to go find them.

What’s In the Bottle Is Only Half the Story.

The other half is how it got there — and we publish all of it.

Global. Rigorous. Uncompromising.

The best ingredients for longevity don’t all come from the same place. We source from a wide variety of farms and regions around the world — from the Himalayan mountains to Japan — because we go wherever the best ingredients are. Every source is rigorously vetted. We also partner with regenerative and biodynamic farms for many of our ingredients, and all of our essential oils and hydrosols come exclusively from a Demeter-certified biodynamic farm. No synthetic pesticides. No shortcuts. Ever.

Extraction & Delivery Systems That Actually Work

Most supplements fail at delivery — not ingredients. Our tinctures use an in-house dual extraction process developed by Richard, combining alcohol and water extraction to capture both fat-soluble and water-soluble compounds for a true full-spectrum potency. For our liposomal and emulsion formulas, we use a proprietary system built around biodynamic hydrosol — a living, antioxidant-rich carrier from Demeter-certified farms — with supercritical CO2 extraction and micelle-enhanced delivery for rapid, direct absorption. Every formula is designed around one question: does it actually get into the body?

Don’t Take Our Word For It

GMP-certified manufacturing. Every batch is third-party lab tested for contaminants, heavy metals, and toxins. We don’t just say we’re clean — we show you. COAs (Certificates of Analysis) are available directly on every product page.

Miron Glass. Always.

All products are packaged in recyclable violet miron glass — protecting potency from UV degradation while reducing environmental impact. Never plastic.
