Who We Are
xula (choo-luh) chul·ha
chula \ ˈchül ə \ chill, intelligent, cute, balanced – to feel good in one’s own skin.
our mission
Our mission is to shift the narrative from one of deficiency and lack to one of balance. We’re not about chasing perfection or relentless productivity. Instead, we focus on feeling good in the skin we’re in and finding joy in the cycles of our lives. Everything we do is to help you feel yourself.
our products
We understand that a product lacking potency is a product without purpose. This is why we make herbal supplements you can actually feel. All of our products help you find balance, naturally.
When it comes to the quality of our products, we go above and beyond. We offer clean, lab-tested and sustainable ingredients and grow our hemp utilizing organic and regenerative farming practices.
All of our products are made using craft batch methods at a cGMP facility, allowing us to rigorously test and control for quality. Our botanicals are infused in a manner that helps preserve the heat-sensitive compounds present and yields their whole plant power.
founded by
Karina (Kay) Primelles
founder
I started Xula Herbs with one goal in mind: to help others manage the severe period pain I had struggled with for years. Working with herbalists, I created a formula combining cannabinoids and traditional herbs, which turned out to be incredibly effective. I wanted to make these types of solutions accessible, and that’s how Xula began.
Running Xula, however, eventually led me to experience burnout, which opened my eyes to a new side of plant medicine: adaptogens. I started using herbs like Rhodiola and Ashwagandha to build resilience and support my own recovery. This experience inspired a new era of Xula products—formulas designed to not only ease physical discomfort but also help restore balance and calm during life’s more demanding times.
I hope Xula’s products can support you in finding relief and resilience, just as they’ve done for me. Thank you for considering Xula Herbs as part of your wellness journey.
