Prologue
Oriental roots, Global use.
For centuries, the people of Asia have harvested the stalk or raisin of a herbal plant known as Hovenia Dulcis to treat fatty liver, hepatitis and diabetes. Full of antioxidants and antihepatotoxic properties this legend of a plant is also known for its function to protect the liver. In today’s world, when it comes to work and play, it’s no secret Koreans excel in both!
Our founders, while travelling the world, discovered that the people of Seoul had produced a modern variant of this hangover remedy, one that is being sold at nearly every supermarket, grocer and convenience store and taken by most Korean people before a big night out so they can bounce back the next day for work or family commitments. There are many traditions and health benefits seeped in eastern history (and belong there) but this is one we just had to bring to the western world.
Our team has always been passionate about showcasing Asian culture and heritage. Enter “Chingu”, the output of our Brainchild and the solution the “work hard, party hard” community has been waiting for. In Korean culture, a “Chingu” is that close friend you can always rely on to turn up for you – if you’re celebrating life or if you’re struggling through life, they are there to make you feel better. And that’s what our product is all about – A hangover relief and recovery gel that is packed with natural ingredients containing all the antioxidants, vitamins and electrolytes you need to enjoy your night and wake up fresh tomorrow.
The CHINGU Approach
Life is for living
Our backgrounds in Healthcare, Technology, Travel and Events Management has shown us that life is short and it moves quick. Yet, there is so much to see, do and celebrate in life. So if we are on this good earth for a great time not a long time let’s do everything we can to enjoy the good times with family and friends and quickly get through the bad.
We’re at our best when we’re smashing our goals, staying healthy and celebrating with our loved ones. But that next wedding, kid’s birthday, marathon or work presentation is always right around the corner. There’s never enough minutes in the day and there’s only so much time you can spend in bed recovering. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to give our customers what they need to live without regrets. You shouldn’t have to sacrifice a good time because you have stuff on the next day. You should just include Chingu in your night routine 🙂 Just as a good skin care routine and drinking a glass of water before bed goes a long way, taking our gels means you’ll be thanking yourself (and maybe us) the next day.
Ideally there are no off-days. Realistically, most of us won’t say no to a cheeky bev with our loved ones to celebrate that new career milestone. And why should we? Life is meant to be celebrated & with Chingu it can be. We’re all about living a full life!
