About Us - Eco Traders Australia

Evidence-Based Natural Wellness.

Australian and family-owned, committed to natural products that truly work.

MEET DR MATHEW MCDOUGALL

Hi, I’m Mathew — the founder of Eco Traders Australia. Based in Woy Woy, NSW, I created Eco Traders to share my belief in natural living, holistic health, and the healing power of food as medicine. I’m passionate about supporting the gut–brain connection, helping families reduce sugar in their diets, and making wellness more accessible to every household. Every product we stock is carefully chosen to support your health and the planet — no greenwashing, no nasties. Eco Traders is a 100% Australian-owned, family-run business built on trust, care, and community. Thanks for being here — I’m truly glad you found us.

“For me, it’s simple — I want my family, and yours, to have access to better choices. Cleaner products, honest ingredients, and businesses that genuinely care. That’s why I started Eco Traders — to help build healthier homes, support Australian makers, and strengthen the local community. It’s not just about selling products, it’s about looking out for one another.” — Dr. Mathew McDougall

OUR APPROACH

We don't just sell products — we curate them with clinical rigor. Dr. Mathew reviews every item for ingredient integrity, scientific evidence, ethical sourcing, and real-world effectiveness. If it's not something we'd use ourselves, it doesn't make the cut. That's our promise to you.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We believe your family deserves products that actually work — not just products that sound good. That's why we stock only evidence-based natural wellness essentials: proven safe, genuinely effective, and transparently sourced. No greenwashing. No empty promises. Just wellness you can trust.

OUR MISSION

We're here to make evidence-based natural wellness easy, affordable, and accessible for every Australian household. No greenwashing, no sneaky additives — just honest products from brands that share our values. We've already helped over 5,000 Australian families embrace healthier, low-tox living, and we're just getting started.

OUR STANDARDS

Every product we stock must pass a strict review before it reaches our shelves. We assess ingredient integrity, supporting evidence, safety, sustainability, and brand transparency. If it doesn’t meet our standards — or we wouldn’t use it ourselves — it doesn’t make the cut. These principles guide every decision we make, giving you greater confidence and clarity.

A Curated Collection of Excellence
