Teresa Purzner has always been in love with the brain. Already a practicing neurosurgeon, she was inspired to go back to school and learn more about how the human brain grows, earning a PhD in Developmental Neurobiology at Stanford.
Around the same time, she had her first of three kids. Having spent years learning the science behind brain development, she knew just what to look for when shopping for baby food.
She was shocked and disappointed by what she found. Too often, the baby foods on store shelves had zero percent of the daily value of the nutrients she believed were important for a baby’s growing brain.
That sparked a light that only grew bigger and bolder. She was convinced that if she could get the nutrients that matter into what we feed our little ones, it would make a lifelong difference for kids everywhere. Teresa and her brother Nick teamed up with world-class pediatricians, nutritionists, and food scientists. Together, they created Cerebelly. The world's first baby food founded by a neurosurgeon and PhD in Developmental Neurobiology with 16 brain supporting nutrients.
