Dr. Nuani, Ph.D
Co-founder & CSO
Dr. Nuani (Karen) Witty is the Cofounder and CSO of Nuaceutical. She is a Clinical Research Scientist and Holistic Health Practitioner that has dedicated her life to clinical research and drug development for the last 32 years. She conducted scientific research at Columbia University, Rockefeller University and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute and worked in the Biopharmaceutical industry. Dr. Nuani was involved in studies that discovered the genes causing diabetes, obesity and various cancers. During her career, she interacted and worked closely with scientists from a wide array of institutions (e.g. the Astrazeneca, Merck, Pfizer, Wyeth, CDC, FDA, Johnson & Johnson, NIH, USDA, etc.) focusing on research and drug development to bring new diagnostics and drugs to the market.
Even with her close relationship to drug development, Dr. Nuani was amazed at the fact that modern Western medicine has not yielded a cure for many diseases. Her interest in non-invasive therapeutics grew when she became diagnosed with HPV and cancerous cells were found on her cervix. When Cryo Therapy didn’t permanently fix her problem and another invasive method was recommended, she decided to take the non-invasive route and incorporate the strategies that were taught in her indigenous culture. After healing herself using non-conventional methods, she decided to do the same for others by studying various methods of non-invasive therapy and incorporate indigenous healing principles as well as various scientific and naturopathic disciplines (bioenergetics, biochemistry, cell biology, emotional release, epidemiology, functional blood chemistry analysis, homotoxicology, microbiology, and molecular biology) to develop Nuaceutical products.
