In the woods of Douglasville, a new approach to longevity is taking root.
Nutrition Nest, the first sanctuary from Preserve Life, opened to the public Oct. 1 on a 1,200-acre wooded estate at 1 Preserve Drive in Douglasville, bringing personalized nutrition, biomarker testing, recovery therapies, aesthetics and culinary education together under one roof. The 25,000-square-foot facility is designed around a simple idea: measure a person’s biology, design a personalized plan and help them put that plan into practice.
“We want Nutrition Nest to feel unlike anywhere people have experienced healthcare or wellness,” co-founder Meena Mulpuri said. “Your diagnostics shape what you eat, and what you learn here follows you home.”
Mulpuri, a health and longevity entrepreneur with a master’s degree in biochemistry and nutrition, has spent the past five years helping shape Preserve Life’s longevity vision in the United States. She previously helped establish Pema Wellness Resort in India, where her work included wellness program design, treatment protocols and the development of more than 1,000 recipes.
Nutrition Nest is the first piece of a larger Preserve Life development. Future components of the estate are expected to focus on longevity and neuroregeneration, while Nutrition Nest serves as the project’s first public-facing sanctuary.
At Nutrition Nest, members can begin with bloodwork, biomarker and genetic testing and a clinical assessment. The results are reviewed with the member and used to develop what the organization calls a personalized “Blueprint,” incorporating recommendations for movement, nutrition, daily habits, and therapies.
The program is organized around four pathways: Alive, which focuses on areas including digestion, sleep, hormones and blood sugar; Purify, centered on areas including inflammation and immunity; Clarity, focused on cognition, mood and cardiovascular health; and Longevity, centered on healthy aging, muscle, bone and cellular health.
“This is not a medical clinic,” Mulpuri said during a tour of the facility. Instead, she said its clinicians use biomarkers to guide members on nutrition, supplements and wellness protocols intended to support their individual goals.
Those recommendations extend beyond the consultation room.
Circadium, the facility’s longevity clinic, includes biomarker testing, body-composition scanning and recovery services. Elsewhere, members can visit an aesthetics department and shop in the Functional Market, where food, supplements and other products are organized around the four pathways. The facility includes an Aviary, providing space for education, events and community.
At Biome, Nutrition Nest’s experiential kitchen, members learn to prepare meals tailored to their health goals and personalized pathway. The cooking experience is designed to teach members techniques they can continue at home, including ingredient substitutions and recipes connected to their individualized recommendations.
That emphasis on taking the experience home is central to Mulpuri’s vision.
“We wish for every person who steps into this space to leave with something lasting,” Mulpuri said. “A feeling. A rekindling of the human spirit we tend to forget, and a return to our roots.”
The return to nature is literal, too. The mass-timber building spans a ravine with a creek flowing beneath it. According to Nutrition Nest, trees were geotagged before construction so the building could be designed around them, while approximately 100 glass panels keep the surrounding forest visible from inside.
For Preserve Life, Nutrition Nest is only the beginning. But for visitors crossing the timber-and-glass structure above the creek, the larger idea starts with something much smaller: learning what their own body needs, and carrying that knowledge home.
