Naturopath & Nutritionist

Specialty: Peptides, Naturopathy, Functional Medicine

Australian qualified nutritionist, naturopath, biohacker, and founder/formulator of LVLUP Health, a practitioner-grade peptide and nutritional supplement brand.

Kyal Van Der Leest is an Australian qualified nutritionist, naturopath, supplement formulator, and the founder, director, and formulator of LVLUP Health. A passionate formulator and lifelong biohacker, Kyal founded LVLUP in 2020 at age 27 while working across a Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy clinic and one of the busiest health-food and supplement stores in Australia. There he saw the same frustration daily: patients and customers were taking six to eight different products just to access the actives they needed, often with limited results, high costs, long wait times, and questionable quality from overseas imports. His curiosity led him to peptides and other unique natural compounds, where he witnessed firsthand their remarkable healing potential and wide-ranging benefits. Yet the products he wanted simply did not exist. Rather than accept this limitation, Kyal began sourcing the highest-quality ingredients available and experimenting relentlessly to create something better, more effective, and more honest. After months of formulation and refinement, LVLUP's first flagship product, Regenerate, was born. The brand name LVLUP stands for Leanne Van Der Leest Legacy — born while Kyal was caring for his mother through a terminal illness — and every formulation reflects that origin: products designed with purpose, compassion, and a genuine desire to help others. Today LVLUP Health has earned the trust and praise of some of the world's leading health and biohacking figures and is stocked globally in doctors' offices, naturopathic dispensaries, clinics, and health-food stores. Kyal is a frequent guest on leading health and biohacking podcasts, where he speaks on peptide science, gut health, liver detoxification, and root-cause naturopathic medicine.
