The story of Dr. Ong-ard products began in 2018 when Dr. Ong-ard Phraepanichchai found that his brother and his elderly friends were not healthy. They suffered from a variety of diseases that come with age, such as muscle atrophy and weakness, diabetes, kidney disease, dementia, high blood pressure. When the elderly were sick with these diseases, they normally experienced discomfort and pain. They also needed medical treatments which can be quite costly. Besides, family members had to spend more time taking care of the elderly.
These events made Dr. Ong-ard Phraepanichchai want to find a way to help make the elderly stronger to reduce health problems. One way to help maintain good health is to eat foods that are nutritious and suitable for each person's physical condition. Hence, he set up 1A Food company to produce food for the elderly and the general public under the Dr. Ong-ard brand.
