It was a pleasure to exhibit bellie at the John F. Gilmore Symposium on Nutrition and Small Bowel Disorders at the The University of Chicago Booth School of Business Gleacher Center today, hosted by UChicago Medicine. We had the opportunity to share bellie with gastroenterologists and dieticians, as well as learn about recent developments in GI. Many thanks to the organizers and speakers, including Dejan Micic, Edwin McDonald, and many others, for the session.

We're thrilled to announce that bellie has raised $500K in our pre-distribution angel round! With the incidence of irritable bowel syndrome rising (affecting c. 5%-10% of the US, diagnosed), the unmet need for expanded dietary options is exponentially growing. I experienced this first-hand with my 7-year battle with the condition and the hundreds of consumers with whom Catalina Casta?eda and I have spoken. bellie creates low-FODMAP certified, delicious herbal teas without common digestive triggers, and puts them all ready-to-drink in a can. We're also the first beverage to use prebiotics originally found in breast milk, shunning the use of inulin (a plant-based fiber typically found in garlic, onions, and 100% of prebiotic beverages in the USA). Our value proposition is to expand the dietary options available for people with digestive sensitivity, all whilst truly focusing on their gut-health needs. With our newest production complete, our 2024-2025 target is distribution and retail footprint. Stop by Hyde Park Produce, Chicago Health Foods, Pop Up Grocer, and more to get a taste, or order online at drinkbellie.com to be one of the first to try. Thank you to our exceptional investors and partners, University of Chicago and Polsky Center at the University of Chicago, and our advisors. We are beyond grateful for your support and kindness thus far.
