Founded in 2019 and led by Greg Shearson, CEO, Cerebelly is a science-backed patented baby food brand developed specifically to support optimal infant neurodevelopment. The company recently secured a patent from the U.S. Patent Office for its food composition and use of 16 key nutrients that specifically support this critical developmental benefit.
Organic, non-GMO, vegetable-first, dairy-free, gluten-free, with no added sugar, Cerebelly’s brain-supporting pouches and Smart Bars contain 8x the amount of nutrients compared to the 7 top-selling baby food brands. The products are now sold, not only at Cerebelly.com, but also at Amazon, Thrive Market, and over 8,200 retail stores nationwide including Whole Foods, Target, Meijer, Kroger, and its most recent launch at Walmart and Walmart.com.
