Amy Puzey, CEO and Founder
Amy began her education in nursing at University of Alberta and a few years into her degree realized she wanted to work on the preventative side of health and switched to study holistic nutrition. She became a holistic nutritionist in 2005 and CEO and National Race Director of 5Peaks in 2013 to take the Canadian trail running community to the next level. She sold 5Peaks in 2021 to fully dedicate herself to Goodphyte. Amy is a retired competitive runner and previous national mountain running champion. She still runs regularly, but more for pleasure and health than anything else. She is a mother to four children and one fur baby.
In 2008, Amy started researching how the enzyme phytase could neutralize the anti-nutrient, phytate, and the result is GoodPhyte. While not all GoodPhyte customers are athletes, this innovative enzyme has found a beloved home within that community, with many customers reporting marked improvements to their ability to train, perform and recover much faster than they could without it.
