Rooted in Tradition, Growing with Purpose: The Greenland Story

From refugee to founder — Winnie Che's journey, and the Traditional Chinese Medicine wisdom that still shapes Naturin2 today.

Behind every meaningful brand is a defining human moment—a story forged not in corporate boardrooms, but in real life through grit, perseverance, and passion. For Greenland, Inc. and our signature herbal tonic Naturin2, that defining story belongs to our founder, Winnie Che.

Long before Naturin2 became a trusted daily staple in kitchens across North America and Southeast Asia, it was a labor of love born from one woman’s determination to rebuild, recover, and share the restorative gifts of Eastern botanical wisdom.

Here is how a brave new beginning in Seattle grew into a decades-long legacy of holistic wellness.

An Entrepreneurial Spirit Built on Perseverance

Winnie’s path to health advocacy began as an immigrant's journey. Arriving in the United States in her twenties as a refugee from Vietnam, she stepped into the fast-paced world of food service in downtown Seattle. Through relentless work ethic and an unwavering vision for her family’s future, she transformed years of late nights and hard work into business success, opening one of the city's celebrated early Vietnamese eateries in the vibrant International District.

As a restaurant owner and mother, Winnie embodied a familiar story: giving everything to her community and family while quietly putting her own physical needs on the back burner.

When an unexpected severe health setback brought her busy routine to an abrupt halt, Winnie faced an uphill battle. The intensive medical treatments necessary to regain her baseline left her physically exhausted, drained of vitality, and struggling to keep up with daily life.

Bridging Eastern Heritage and Modern Science

Determined to nourish her body and regain her natural stamina, Winnie turned to her cultural roots. She sought guidance from university researchers studying the properties of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbs.

Rather than relying on quick fixes, Winnie committed to a holistic recovery plan. She integrated a specialized blend of traditional botanical extracts with conscious lifestyle changes—prioritizing whole-food nutrition, restorative rest, and mindful movement.

Over time, the results spoke for themselves. Her energy returned, her appetite flourished, and her inner vitality was replenished. The experience was transformative—not just for her physical well-being, but for her life’s purpose.

"When you discover something that genuinely restores your spirit and physical balance, you naturally want to share it with the world."

1992: The Founding of Greenland, Inc.

Experiencing the profound impact of plant-based support inspired Winnie and her husband, Chris, to make these traditional formulas accessible to everyday families.

In 1992, they founded Greenland, Inc. in Washington state with a clear mission: to connect modern individuals with the time-tested, healing harmony of nature.

Partnering with medical consultants and scientific researchers, Greenland refined the traditional recipe into Naturin2—a standardized, easy-to-take liquid herbal tonic designed to support:

• Immune Balance: Strengthening your natural resilience season after season.

• Digestive and Appetite Harmony: Nourishing the digestive core to ensure steady nutrient absorption.

• Sustained Stamina: Promoting grounded, daily energy without artificial stimulants or sugar crashes.

30+ Years of Purpose-Driven Wellness

More than three decades later, Greenland remains deeply connected to Winnie’s original vision. In an era dominated by fleeting wellness trends and synthetic supplements, Naturin2 stands out because it was built on authenticity, scientific care, and time-honored traditional herbalism.

Every bottle we craft honors two rich traditions: the ancient lineage of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the enduring strength of a founder who turned a personal struggle into a gift for others.
