“An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure”

About Randy

Born and raised in Hawaii, Randy Kuba always felt a deep connection to his Okinawan heritage. His journey toward understanding that heritage took a significant turn when he visited Okinawa, initially as a tourist, eager to explore the landmarks and cityscapes. But it was a friend's advice that transformed his experience: “If you want to truly understand Okinawan culture, you must leave the city and visit the villages.”

Taking this advice to heart, Randy ventured into the Okinawan countryside, where he discovered not just his family’s roots, but also the simple yet profound lifestyle habits of the villagers. In these rural areas, Randy found communities that were not only vibrant but deeply connected to traditions that had fostered health and happiness for centuries. Their longevity and vitality weren’t the result of modern medicine but of daily lifestyle practices, influenced by their culture and passed down through generations. This discovery deeply resonated with Randy and became the foundation for his life's work.

 Through his time in the villages, Randy became a firm believer in the idea that healthy, mindful choices—rooted in cultural wisdom—are the key to living a healthy, fulfilled life. These practices weren’t complicated, but their results were undeniable: the villagers of Okinawa are known as the healthiest and longest-living people in the world. Inspired by this revelation, Randy made it his mission to bring these valuable insights back to Hawaii and beyond, blending the best of both worlds to create a wellness lifestyle that anyone could follow.

Through a series of chance encounters and the support of like-minded individuals who shared his passion for health and tradition, the idea for Mana-Su was born.

Mana-Su, which combines the Hawaiian word "Mana"—meaning a powerful life force—and the Japanese word "Su"—meaning vinegar, reflects this unique blend of cultures. The name embodies Randy's belief in the power of cultural traditions to shape our health. As he puts it, "Without good health, we cannot accomplish our career goals, take care of our families, or fulfill our life mission."

For Randy, health is happiness, and he is deeply committed to helping people achieve both through Mana-Su, a wellness tonic inspired by the 600-year-old Okinawan tradition of black vinegar fermentation. But Mana-Su is more than just a product—it’s the result of a deeply personal journey to understand how culture can offer authentic solutions to modern health challenges. By consuming Mana-Su, you are not just investing in your health—you are connecting to a global tradition of wellness that spans centuries.

One of Randy’s most powerful inspirations comes from the history of Okinawa itself. After the devastation of the Battle of Okinawa during World War II, the Okinawan people not only turned to outside solutions—they reconnected with their cultural practices. By embracing their roots, they rebuilt their community and restored their health, becoming the healthiest people in the world. Randy shares this story to inspire others, believing that no matter your background, by embracing the healthy habits of the Okinawans, you too can experience their vitality, health, and longevity.

What Makes Mana-Su Different?

The foundation of Mana-Su lies in its time-tested fermentation methods, producing a product that offers 43 times more citric acid potency than apple cider vinegar. This makes it a superior natural solution for anyone seeking to boost their immune system, lower cholesterol, increase blood circulation, and promote overall vitality. The villagers of Okinawa have been consuming black vinegar, a byproduct of the famous distilled beverage Awamori, for centuries, and it is widely believed to be one of the key reasons for their extraordinary health.

As Randy learned, black vinegar is not just another health trend—it has a rich history as a staple in Okinawan diets, known for strengthening the immune system, enhancing digestion, and boosting fat metabolism. It has also been linked to reduced fatigue, lower blood pressure, improved skin health, and even anti-aging effects. Studies have shown that the citric acid found in Mana-Su helps alkalize bodily fluids, which in turn protects cells, organs, and the body’s vital systems.

By combining the wisdom of Hawaiian and Okinawan traditions, Randy has crafted Mana-Su as a powerful wellness tonic that can support your family’s health for generations to come.

A Global Wellness Movement

For Randy, creating Mana-Su was never just about making a product—it was about starting a global wellness movement rooted in the cultural traditions of his heritage. He believes that connecting with our roots it can unlock authentic, lasting solutions to health challenges. The Mana-Su Ohana (family) is growing, with people from all backgrounds embracing the Okinawan lifestyle and finding health and happiness along the way.

As Randy likes to say, "By investing in your health, you’re depositing power back into your hands." Mana-Su is a simple but potent way to do just that—to take control of your well-being and inspire positive change within your family and community. Just as the Okinawans rebuilt their lives through their culture, you too can harness the power of these traditions to live a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.

Join Randy and the Mana-Su Ohana on this journey to experience the healthiest, longest-living lifestyle in the world. Health is wealth, health is happiness, and Mana-Su is your key to unlocking both.
