About Amphi Botanicals

Amphi Botanicals is a functional wellness brand built on balance.
The name Amphi comes from the Ancient Greek prefix meaning “on both sides”, a reflection of our belief that science and ancient wisdom can, and should, coexist.

We create adaptogen-based functional blends that combine evidence-informed nutrition with time-honoured herbs and mushrooms, designed to support modern life without exaggerated claims or quick fixes. Our formulas are clean, thoughtfully dosed, and packaged in convenient single-serving sachets, made to nourish the body, mind, and nervous system.

Meet Yasmeen, a half Syrian/half Palestinian person who grew up in Beirut, Lebanon. Yasmeen began her career with a BSc in Nutrition in Beirut, originally aiming to work in medical nutrition therapy. But during her clinical training, she became disillusioned by how polarised the wellness space felt: science on one side, natural healing on the other, rarely in conversation.

After navigating her own mental health challenges, and later discovering adaptogens during a transformative trip with her mom, Yasmeen became deeply inspired by the potential of traditional herbs and mushrooms to support wellbeing, when approached responsibly and through a scientific lens. That experience sparked a clear purpose: to bridge science and holistic wellness, rather than choosing between them.

Following hands-on experimentation, a lot of rejection, and a Master’s in Entrepreneurship at UCL (which she pursued after leaving Beirut shortly after the 2020 explosion), that purpose eventually became Amphi Botanicals (but it took a VERY long time to get there!)

At the heart of Amphi is the idea that wellness isn’t individual, it’s collective. Inspired by my upbringing and the realities of my region, the brand exists not only to support personal wellbeing, but also to give back, create access, and centre care beyond the self. Our social impact initiatives are an extension of that belief, and an ongoing commitment we’re deeply proud of.

Amphi Botanicals exists in the middle ground: where balance lives, healing is shared, and wellness is something we build together.
