Fulfill Food & Beverages launched its first five Karviva drinks at a Whole Foods Market (WFM) store in Saint Louis, Missouri, USA on January 28, 2017.

Karviva’s key features include: ancient recipes based on Food Is Better Medicine® practice, whole plant-based, simple, unique and non-GMO ingredients, no added sugar, low calories, low carbs, low glycemic index, and gluten-free. Karviva means compassion and the key ingredients in its drinks are organic, sustainable, environmentally friendly and offer legitimate health and nutritional benefits that are based on scientific research and clinical studies.
