Faith Friday: Local entrepreneur has the earthly goods to deliver heavenly health

Anyone consuming daily medication for high blood pressure probably wishes that were not the case. The menopausal woman would prefer not to have to battle for hormonal health. The diabetic hopes for a day where the only sugar that matters is the sweet kisses they receive from their grandchildren.

Uniqua Clemons, an herbalist known on social media as “Catalina Cali,” says she sympathizes with folks who find themselves in such situations. She claims to have a remedy that comes from the earth, through her business, Earth Bar, LLC. For her, it’s business and personal.

“I started my company in 2020,” said the mother and native Augustan. “Earth Bar was inspired by my uncle Willie who had diabetes and then suffered from a stroke. During the early stages of my business, I was researching and using other individuals’ herbal products. I purchased my uncle Willie some herbal capsules from the health food store. Unfortunately, the capsules were so huge he could hardly swallow them. He passed away.

“I was heartbroken and determined to create my own capsule formulations that were easy to consume and affordable, along with detox teas for individuals with and without health conditions.”

30-year-old Uniqua Clemons says faith empowered her to open her own business. Her products are personalized to fit each customer’s needs.

While Clemons has degrees in biology and sociology from Augusta University, she says every concoction was formulated by God.

“I am just doing his will,” she said.

Her research and methodology span three years, and she is working to obtain higher certification in herbal remedies. Though she understands some people may be skeptical, she’s inspired by those who’ve had positive results because they trusted her, as she trusts her faith in God.

“When you walk into Earth Bar, LLC, there is a scripture on your right,” Clemons said. “It’s Deuteronomy 28:6: ‘Blessed shalt thou be when thou comes in, and blessed shalt thou be when thou goes out.’

“First, you have to have faith and trust in God and believe you are healed. For example, I have a customer who has high blood pressure. I asked her to leave a review on the high blood pressure capsules and she responded that her blood pressure decreased from 168/98 to 137/88, along with changing her diet, drinking more water, exercising, thinking positively, and being stress-free, and getting plenty of rest.”

Clemons has multiple herbal remedies including teas that boast health benefits not found in traditional medicine.

Earth Bar has a long list of products, including a detox tea Clemons claims cleans the kidneys, liver, and blood; a colon detox she says supports proper function of the intestine; turmeric and ginger she says that fights inflammation, and more.

From products to regulate male balance, and female balance and fight the common cold, she believes her God-inspired products, customized to fit each customer’s needs, could reverse generational health problems. It’s a business model she hopes will be a positive influence on her 3-year-old son.

“I was working as a laboratory technician and I quit my job in 2020 and started working on my business full-time,” Clemons said. “In 2021, I was able to rent out a commercial building for my business. I left my job with only the last month’s paycheck. Yet, God has made a way.

“Once you figure out the purpose that God has for your life, you have to fulfill that purpose and trust God every step of the way, even when you feel like you’re at a standstill or you are unsure of what’s ahead. You still have to have faith and do the work!”
