From medical school, to working at Facebook, Instagram and Amazon as a software engineer, Lola Priego's background and own health struggles were the catalyst for her to launch BASE. BASE is affordable at home testing technology that helps you get to the root cause of your issues with a data driven perspective, testing for Diet, Stress, Energy, Sex Drive & Sleep. Feeling fatigued, Lola started the keto diet but still felt off so she went to the Dr and learned from her lab work it was due to B12 and folate deficiency, among other health issues. Once she discovered where her issues stemmed from and she could take her health into her own hands, it sparked an idea to solve a much larger issue: people do not know what is going on with their bodies.
