Bodyfood was born from a simple need — to offer young athletes growing up in Estonia a clean, homegrown supplement with nothing to hide in its ingredients. This is the story of why the brand began and what it offers today.
Why Bodyfood was created in the first place
The idea came from coaches and parents who saw colorful tubs from distant countries landing on young athletes’ tables. The labels looked great. The ingredients were often baffling. Nobody knew exactly what was inside or what job those powders were doing in the body.
The last straw came when an Estonian athlete ordered foreign recovery supplements to prepare for competitions. A later doping test led to a competition ban — even though the label of the tub they had bought didn’t say a word about banned substances. A case like this shows more clearly than anything why you shouldn’t blindly trust an unknown manufacturer’s word.
From there the conclusion was simple: if we prepare our own food, we know exactly what goes into it. Estonian grain, Estonian herbs, transparent ingredients. That’s how Bodyfood was born.
What makes Bodyfood special
Bodyfood’s products are built around our own national food — kama. Added to it are herbs and medicinal plants from Estonian fields and forests. Nothing exotic whose name you’d have to look up in a dictionary.
To stay strong, the body needs nutrient-rich food every day, not only on training days. The powder can be mixed into morning porridge, quark, yogurt or simply water. The principle is simple: if you support your body day after day, it holds up better both under training load and when fighting off germs in a cold autumn.
One more thing worth knowing — the proceeds from Bodyfood sales go toward supporting youth sport in Estonia. Every box is therefore a double investment: in your own health and in the sporting opportunities of our children.
The Bodyfood product range
The range is designed so that there’s something suitable for every lifestyle. Below is a short overview of what you can choose from.
- Proteiin — contains over 32% protein and works as a supplement for athletes with a heavy training load, vegetarians and anyone who is on a diet.
- Energia — a powder for the competition season and training camps. Also a good choice when your digestion isn’t at its best or when, as a vegetarian, you need quick, high-quality energy.

- Record Breaker — supports building and maintaining muscle mass, speeds up recovery and keeps the acid-base balance in check, contributing to regular digestion.
Bodyfood FAQ
Is Bodyfood also suitable for regular users, not just elite athletes?
Absolutely. The products are meant as an everyday supplement, and most of them are simply a natural extension of healthy eating — a kama base means it’s closer to food than to chemistry.
How do I know there are no banned substances in Bodyfood?
All production takes place in Estonia and the ingredients are transparent. That was exactly the reason the brand was born — athletes need to be clear about what they put into their bodies. After all, it was confusing labels that set the whole story in motion.
How do I use Bodyfood powder?
The simplest way is to mix it into morning porridge, quark, yogurt or just water. The dose depends on the specific product — check the recommendations on the packaging and start with a smaller amount so your body can get used to it.
Eat Estonian national food — that way you strengthen your health and support youth sport at the same time. It probably can’t get any simpler than that.
