The making of EXALT involved a lot of talented and experienced professionals in various fields, to create a product that really is backed by science.
From getting the taste right to analysing the nutritional benefits, fitness performance support and ensuring our products are mindful of the environment, we put our all into it and ensured we had the best in the business on our side to help us get it just right.
These are the people that made EXALT possible.
Our clinical lead dietitian & nutritionist
BSc (Hons), PGDip, MSc, MRes, RD
We’ve been working with Ro as our clinical lead dietitian and nutritionist from the very beginning, to ensure our juices and smoothies provide everything your body needs to lead a nutritious and healthy, balanced lifestyle.
She is a UK Registered Dietitian with several years’ experience working in the NHS, private practice and commercial business. She is an academic author, having published in peer-reviewed journals including the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Dieticians are the only nutrition professionals to be regulated by law, and are governed by an ethical code to ensure that they always work to the highest standard. That is why we like to work with Ro, our resident dietitian, as her work will always be ground in science. You're not allowed to call yourself a dietitian unless you're properly qualified and registered.
Whereas the title of nutritionist is not protected by law, meaning that anyone can advertise their services as a nutritionist. Find out more from the NHS.
Our fitness specialist
Mckenzi has been in the fitness industry for over 20 years, so it’s safe to say he knows a thing or two. He started training clients when he was just 15 years old in a local gym after school. He has gone on to train 1000's of clients, many going on to excel in competitive sport or exhibition bodybuilding. He himself initially competed in gymnastics before moving onto bodybuilding. He has entered four bodybuilding competitions, winning three and ranking 4th in national champs. Personal bests including; 315kg deadlift and 190kg bench press.
He later completed the industry gold standard Poliquin International Certificate Program (PICP) - the strength training certification based on the concept of structural balance alongside more traditional strength training. His extensive knowledge of nutrition, mobility and mindfulness has allowed him to become one of the best qualified and most experienced personal trainers in the UK. As someone so dedicated and informed, we knew we wanted to have him on board as he aligns with our values perfectly.
Our sustainability consultant
Felix is a director at Sancroft international where he is responsible for leading their business development and implementation strategy.
Throughout his career, he has worked across all areas of commercial sustainability, spending almost a decade focussing on Human Rights in the Tesco PLC supply chain.
We asked Felix to enlighten us on wider sustainability issues and what we could do to ensure we’re being fair to our people, communities and the environment. His area of expertise involves working with many FMCG brands on their sustainability initiatives and we knew he could help us achieve the values that are so important to us.

Our amazing taste partners, better known as ‘Food Product Development Consultants’, joined us with a ton of experience to help us get our products to taste perfect.
Previously working with many leading food and drinks companies like Green & Black’s, M&S, Parmigiano Reggiano, Cawston Press and Heinz, we knew these guys had the skills needed to help us achieve exactly what we were looking to do.
The team at Tastehead helped us to refine our whey and protein blends and ready-to-drink recipes, and we may be biased but we think we ended up with a delicious result.
