The name "Taimi," meaning 'Seedling' in Finnish, is inspired by the daughter of one of the founders, Jukka. Despite having an intellectual disability and undergoing extensive neurological examinations that revealed no abnormalities, Taimi remained a unique and inspiring figure for the brand. When doctors recommended supplements for her, Jukka sought an alternative since she couldn't swallow pills. This challenge led to the development of micro-capsulated powder — a solution that eventually became the foundation of the Taimi brand.
