Globally recognized as the co-founder and CEO of lifestyle and beauty brand <a href="https://www.teamiblends.com/">Teami</a>, Adi Arezzini has dedicated her career to developing plant-based products, ranging from wellness tea blends to tea-infused skincare, to help consumers live happier, healthier lives. From a young age, Adi was taught the benefits of holistic health and plant-based eating by her health-conscious mother. At 19, Adi served as a combat trainer for the Israel Defense Force, and later, after returning home to Florida, qualified as a National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) certified personal trainer. After years of life in the army barracks, Adi realized her gut wasn’t functioning properly, due to a lack of access to quality nutrition. Despite trying different diets, supplements and more, nothing seemed to help with her lagging digestive system, inability to go to the bathroom and painful bloating. Soon Adi began experimenting with loose leaf tea blends as a natural remedy. These high-quality teas Adi made uncovered the root of her problem: an excess of toxins built up in her digestive tract. After realizing her “secret sauce” blend also solved similar digestion issues with her friends, Adi saw the potential and began looking to different varieties of tea to combat other common issues: fatigue, depleted immune system, stress, and insomnia. Researching, creating, blending and sourcing these teas wasn’t just a passion for Adi, it became her purpose and, soon, her expertise. At just 23, Adi created Teami in her mother’s home. She saw Teami as a way to help people become healthier and happier, with teas to solve everyday issues. Today, Adi has since expanded the lifestyle brand into the beauty industry with tea-infused beauty oils and green tea mask + scrub. Teami is quickly outgrowing their 13,000 square foot office-warehouse hybrid located in Seminole, Florida and is sold nationally at ULTA Beauty, Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, Vitamin World, Riley Rose and more as well as online at <a href="https://www.teamiblends.com/">TeamiBlends.com</a>.Keep up with Adi on her<a href="https://www.instagram.com/adiarezzini/"> Instagram</a> and be sure to follow&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/teamiblends/">Teami</a>!&nbsp;
