A mother crying in the bathroom, an 8-month-old baby screaming in pain, and five long days without a single poop.
This isn’t a movie scene.
This is the moment that pushed Yeegy, a UPM-trained scientist and now one of Malaysia’s most inspiring female founders, to create what is today becoming a regional gut-health phenomenon: Culvita.
And yes it all started with one mother refusing to let her daughter suffer.
The Origin Story That’s Changing Gut Health in Asia
Back in 2015, after endless specialist visits, expensive treatments, and zero results,Yeegy said the one thing every Malaysian mum can relate to:
“Enough.”
She imported live probiotics from overseas.
She went back to her lab in Universiti Putra Malaysia.
She worked with professors’ day and night.
Then breakthrough.
A 100% natural, live liquid probiotic that worked within hours, not days.
From kitchen bottles to a scientifically verified formula with:
- 15 million CFU live probiotics ( meaninng 15million live probiotic in 1 ml)
- Zero preservatives
- Zero artificial sweeteners
- Real fruit. Real fermentation. Real bacteria.
- 18-month room-temperature stability (almost unheard of in Asia)
Today, Culvita ships to Singapore, Cambodia, Mauritius, Hong Kong, and is gearing up for China, Japan, and Indonesia.
Not bad for something born out of tears and pure motherly instinct.
Why Malaysians Are Dropping Their “Zero Sugar” Drinks for Culvita
Walk into any pharmacy today the “healthy” drinks look clean, but the labels tell another story:
❌ Sucralose
❌ Aspartame
❌ Stabilizers
❌ Artificial colours
All disguised as “zero sugar”.
Eji refuses to play that game.
“Sucralose was originally developed as a pesticide. Why would I put that in my child or yours?”
Culvita’s commitment is simple:
✔ Real fruit
✔ Real fermentation
✔ Real probiotic cultures
✔ Safe for kids (1 year+), diabetics & daily use
✔ Tastes naturally sweet no guilt, no chemicals
This is health on your terms not marketing gimmicks.
The Entrepreneurial Journey Only Malaysian Founders Will Understand
Before Culvita became a brand Malaysians trust, the road was brutal:
- Lost personal savings renovating the wrong factory
- Two years perfecting a probiotic that doesn’t need refrigeration
- OEM clients offering lowball prices because “your brand isn’t famous yet”
- Shifting from making products for others… to owning their identity
Today?
✔ KKM-approved
✔ Produced in a fully certified HACCP & GMP facility in Johor
✔ Loved by 70% female customers aged 25–55
✔ One of Southeast Asia’s fastest-rising gut health brands
Culvita didn’t rise with luck.
It rose with fire.
The Results Speak Louder Than Any Ad
Every week, families send messages like:
✨ “My child hasn’t been constipated since starting Culvita.”
✨ “My acid reflux vanished after one carton.”
✨ “I’m diabetic and this is the first sweet drink I can enjoy.”
These aren’t sponsored reviews.
These are real Malaysians sharing real relief.
And they don’t just buy once.
They tell 5… 10… 20 friends.
That’s what happens when a brand actually works.
Culvita’s Next Big Leap: 30 Countries in 5 Years
Eji’s dream is clear:
Put real probiotics in every Asian home.
And she’s moving fast:
- Soon on AEON, Lotus’s, TikTok Shop
- Educational workshops for thousands of students in Malaysia
- Invited to teach 2,000+ students in Singapore about gut health
- New markets opening across Asia
Culvita is no longer just “a mother’s solution”.
It’s becoming a regional health movement.
Her Final Words Hit Hard
“I never planned to run a company. I just wanted my daughter to stop crying. If my struggle can help your family live healthier, it was all worth it.”
And that’s why Malaysians trust Culvita not because of ads, but because it was born from love, not profit.
