Featured Story How Ajinomoto Cambrooke Embodies the Eat Well, Live Well Philosophy

Ajinomoto Cambrooke was founded on a deeply personal mission: to transform the lives of families navigating rare metabolic disorders. When Lynn and David Paolella’s newborn son was diagnosed with PKU, they were met with limited, uninspired options for medical nutrition. Determined to change that reality, they launched Cambrooke in 2000 to deliver better-tasting, more affordable, and clinically effective solutions for families like theirs.

Today, Ajinomoto Cambrooke continues to lead in advanced medical nutrition, offering science-backed, patient-centered products that support dietary therapy for conditions such as PKU, epilepsy, and severe protein allergies. Their work exemplifies our shared commitment to improving quality of life through innovation, compassion, and the power of “AminoScience”.
