History
Before she began her modelling career, Miranda Kerr spent 18 months studying nutrition and health psychology at the Academy of Natural Living near Cairns. This interest in healthy living led to her founding KORA Organics to create a range of certified organic skincare products that she herself had always wanted but was unable to find. According to the company, the name KORA Organics is derived from Miranda's own belief in the connection of the mind, body and spirit to the 'core' self.

As of 5 October 2014, Miranda Kerr did not respond to the evidences found by the laboratories.
