We strive to provide an alternative

At drCook's, we understand how challenging it can be to navigate food choices whilst managing diabetes or staying on your weight-loss journey. The frustration of being surrounded by food but held back by the fear of blood sugar spikes or reversing your progress is something we truly empathise with.

That’s why at drCook's we’re committed to changing the narrative. Our mission is to help people facing these challenges discover a new world of alternatives —food that not only tastes incredible but also makes it easier for you to achieve your health goals.

Why we started this brand..

Meet the founders..

Registered Dietitian Mercy & Sonia Bello

At the heart of our brand is a story of love, resilience, and determination. Meet Registered Dietitian Mercy and Sonia Bello, the mother-daughter duo who turned a personal struggle into a mission to transform lives.

Our story begins with Dietitian Mercy, a passionate innovator who refused to let diabetes define her. Frustrated by the lack of satisfying, delicious food options, she began experimenting in her kitchen, creating recipes that were not only nutritious but truly delicious. We know how hard it is to stick to a new diet. Her creations were a step toward reclaiming her health.

Years later, Sonia, her entrepreneurial driven daughter, grew up watching her mother’s perseverance. As she got older, she began to see the challenges her mother faced in a new light. Determined to make a difference, Sonia set out to join her mother so they could share her creations with people everywhere, especially those who needed them most.

Together, they’ve made it their mission to deliver healthy, delicious options to people everywhere who want to eat well without compromising on taste. Because for them, it’s not just food—it’s a chance to eat what you love, without the sugar spikes and complications.

Our journey and where we've been.

We began in 2017 with our product – super8 fibre mix, (A low carb replica of the African dish pounded yam), this was initially formulated for the personal use of the CEO. The Mix soon became the favourite of family members and close friends as it delivered a malleable texture, delightful aroma, and could be eaten without the worry of spiking blood glucose. Since then, we have expanded our product lines, with the aim to deliver low starch, zero sugar products providing an alternative with added benefits of high protein, vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre, without compromising taste and texture.

Fast forward to today 2024, We decided to take drCook's online so that we can provide low carb, zero sugar alternatives nation wide and soon globally. Stay tuned for our product launches, we have a lot in store!
