for women after 40
Your gut isn’t broken.
It’s stuck in a loop.
The bloating that builds by afternoon. The 3pm wall. It isn't your diet, and it isn't your fault — it's a loop your body slipped into after 40. This breaks it.

YOU'RE NOT IMAGINING IT
You didn't change anything. Your body changed the rules.
Same meals. Same routine. And somewhere after 42, it stopped working the way it always had. You've probably been told it's stress, or age, or to eat more fibre. It isn't any of those — and it certainly isn't a lack of willpower.
94%
of women in perimenopause feel this shift. There's a reason it happened. And there's a reason nothing you tried has held.
HERE'S WHAT CHANGED
Four things, in sequence. Each feeds the next.
That's the loop - and why fixing one thing at a time never held.
HERE'S WHAT CHANGED
Four things, in sequence. Each feeds the next.
That's the loop - and why fixing one thing at a time never held.
What changes after 40.
As progesterone falls, cortisol climbs. Raised cortisol puts the gut wall under strain — and the bacteria that help balance your hormones, your estrobolome, stop doing their job. Each step feeds the next.
The stress driver
KSM-66 ashwagandha at a clinical dose, with magnesium — where the loop begins.
The microbiome
Five live culture strains, plus 38 whole-food greens, fruits and berries. Polyphenols from real food are what your gut bacteria actually feed on.
The daily work
Five digestive enzymes at full dose, with peppermint, fennel and ginger — so food is broken down properly while the deeper work happens.
Ease the driver, restore the microbiome, and the loop lets go. The loop is a 90-day repair. Digestion is what you'll notice first.

IF YOU'VE TRIED THINGS BEFORE
Every one of them was a reasonable choice.
Magnesium. A live-culture capsule. Greens. Ashwagandha. ≈ €132 a month — and each one does exactly what it says. The issue was never the bottles. It's that a loop with four links doesn't yield to one link at a time. You weren't wrong. You were working on a piece of it.
FIVE LAYERS, ONE SCOOP
Everything the loop needs.
01
CALM THE CORTISOL LOOP
KSM-66 Ashwagandha · 500mg · Aquamin Magnesium · 56mg
The stress hormone cycle damaging your gut lining since perimenopause started. KSM-66 is the most clinically studied ashwagandha extract on the market, dosed at the level used in cortisol research.
02
SUPPORT DIGESTION
Digezyme · 150mg · 5 digestive enzymes · Herbal botanicals
Stomach acid and enzyme production decline after 40. Digezyme is a clinically validated full-spectrum enzyme blend — protein, carbohydrate, fibre, dairy.
03
MICROBIOME DIVERSITY
24 Fruits · 1,533mg · 14 Greens & Veg · 1,350mg · Spirulina · 970mg
Real plant material at meaningful doses — the fibre, polyphenols, and micronutrient diversity your gut bacteria actually need to thrive.
04
LIVE CULTURES
5 strains · 5BN CFU
Five clinically researched strains — L. plantarum, L. rhamnosus, B. lactis, L. casei, and L. acidophilus — with 30 mg Larch Tree Arabinogalactan (prebiotic) to support these live cultures. Formulated for gentle daily introduction.
05
ABSORB WHAT YOU EAT
BioPerine · 10mg · Aquamin Marine Minerals · 120mg
BioPerine increases nutrient absorption across the formula by up to 20×. Aquamin delivers calcium plus 72 trace minerals — the layer most formulas skip.
Foundation breaks the loop.

The founder
“I built this for my sister.”
Flax + Beets started as a food business — a medicinal chef, a menu built around gut function. Then lockdown came, and I watched my sister's digestion fall apart under the stress. Same from my cousins.
I spent two years building what I couldn't find on a shelf: clinical ingredients at doses that matter, real food built in, nothing invented.
— Kyron Sadik, founder
What to expect & when
A 90-day reset,
not a 7-day promise.
Gut health isn't overnight. But the women who see it through tell us the changes go far beyond what they expected.
week 1-2
The Shift Begins
Bloating starts to ease. Bowel movements become more regular. Sleep feels a little more settled. This is your microbiome rebalancing.
week 3-6
The Fog Lifts
Energy steadies. Brain fog improves. Cortisol levels begin to normalise — which has a knock-on effect on mood, cravings, and how your body manages weight
week 7-12
The Full Reset
Sleep deeper, feel lighter, think clearer. The symptom clusters that brought you here have been addressed at the root — not just managed on the surface.
Measured in weeks, not days. That's why the guarantee runs 90.
If you're 37 and reading this because your gut changed and you don't know why — perimenopause can start in the mid-30s. Foundation is built for you too.

Such a great product! I’ve really noticed a difference since I started taking it — less bloating and way less snacking. Super convenient having all those benefits in just one scoop.

the 90-day reset / 3 tubs
I’d more or less given up on supplements. I’d tried everything over the years — the stuff from the health shop, the capsules my daughter sent me, a few things from the pharmacy. Some made no difference. A couple made me feel worse. So when I came across Flax + Beets I wasn’t expecting much, to be honest. They've a good guarantee so I had nothing to loose really.
The first couple of weeks I didn’t notice a great deal. Then somewhere around the third or fourth week I realised I hadn’t been uncomfortable after dinner in a while. It wasn’t a big moment — I just noticed it was gone. My mornings settled down too, which I hadn’t even thought to hope for.
I’m 75. I’ve been taking it every day since February. If you’re my age and you’re reading this wondering if it’s worth a try — it is. The worst that happens is you find out it’s not for you and you get your money back. The best that happens is you stop thinking about your stomach for the first time in years.”

Many women feel the first shift — easier mornings, less bloat — within the first couple of weeks. But the full reset takes 12 weeks. If you're looking for an overnight fix, this isn't it.

before you decide
The questions we hear the most.
What is Flax + Beets?
Foundation is a daily gut powder built for the changes that arrive after 40. After perimenopause begins, cortisol rises, the gut lining weakens, and the bacteria that help balance your hormones stop doing their job — that's why bloating and the 3pm wall showed up even though you changed nothing.
Foundation puts the five things that break that loop in one scoop: KSM-66 ashwagandha, five digestive enzymes and botanicals, five live culture strains, 38 whole-food greens and fruits, and the minerals most formulas skip.
One scoop, every morning. Nothing else to remember.
What is the 90-day guarantee?
Take Foundation daily. If you're not noticing a difference within 90 days of your first delivery, email us and we'll refund what you've paid for it. Nothing to send back.
We give it 90 days because that's how long a fair trial takes. We'd rather refund you than have you carry on with something that isn't working.
How to claim: email kim@flaxandbeets.eu with your order number within 90 days of your first delivery. We'll refund your Foundation orders in that window to your original payment method within 5 working days, and cancel any upcoming delivery at the same time. One guarantee claim per customer.
What happens after my 90 days?
Nothing happens automatically. If you bought 3 tubs, we'll email you around day 75 to ask whether you want the next three — one tap, yes or no, and nothing is charged unless you say yes. If you're on Subscribe & Save, your tubs keep arriving every 30 or 60 days until you skip, pause or cancel, and we remind you five days before each one.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes, any time. There's no minimum term. Cancel from your members portal or the manage link in any order email, one tap, no phone calls, no forms. If you'd rather not cancel outright, you can skip a delivery or pause instead, and pick up where you left off.
Can I take if I’m on HRT?
Yes. The product supports your body's ability to metabolise hormones — it complements HRT rather than replacing it. Many of our members take both. As always, check with your GP if you have specific concerns.
Can I take if pregnant?
No- the product hasn't been tested for use during pregnancy. We'd recommend a dedicated prenatal supplement instead and always check with your GP.
Can I take if breastfeeding?
No as with pregnancy, our formula hasn't been tested for use while breastfeeding , so we don't recommend it during this time. Please speak to your GP before starting any supplements while breastfeeding.
What if I have a sensitive stomach?
Yes, Foundation is specifically formulated for sensitive stomachs. The most common cause of gut sensitivity in women over 40 is a thinning of the gut lining, driven by cortisol dysregulation during perimenopause. Standard supplements often make this worse by adding fillers, harsh actives, or common IBS triggers.
Foundation is different: no chicory root, no artificial sweeteners, no fillers, no chemicals — just gentle, well-tolerated ingredients chosen for women navigating perimenopause gut changes. The Debloat, Detox + Absorption blend includes ginger, fennel, peppermint and turmeric — all traditional botanicals that soothe rather than irritate. The Live Bacteria + Prebiotic Fibre blend uses Larch Arabinogalactan, a gentle prebiotic that supports the gut lining without the bloating some prebiotics cause. KSM-66 Ashwagandha (500mg) addresses cortisol at the root — which is what's driving the sensitivity in the first place.
Most members with sensitive stomachs notice a settled, calmer digestion within the first 2–3 weeks. If you'd like to start slower, half a scoop for the first week works well.
How does it taste?
So we have 3 options for you. All mix perfectly with no grit or clumping.
Natural Berry — A subtle, sweet combination of strawberries and blueberries with fresh, gentle floral notes.
Orange, Lemon & Lime — A clean, zesty trio of orange, lemon, and lime - refreshing and tangy, with a perfectly balanced citrus finish.
Unflavored — Versatile & Invisible - a neutral taste. Mix it with your favourites without changing the flavour.
How is this different to taking probiotics?
Live probiotics on their own land in an environment that isn't set up to keep them alive — no prebiotic fibre or plants to feed them, no enzyme support, no repair to the lining they're trying to colonise, and elevated cortisol still working against the whole system.
Foundation is built around all five layers: the live cultures, the prebiotic fibre and diversity that feeds them, digestive enzymes, gut-lining support, and ashwagandha and magnesium for the cortisol load. Fix the system and the probiotics do their job.
When will I start to notice a difference?
It builds in three stages.
Weeks 1-2 — the shift begins. Bloating eases. Bowel movements become more regular. Sleep feels a little more settled.
Weeks 3-6 — the fog lifts. Energy steadies. Brain fog improves. Cortisol begins to normalise.
Weeks 7-12 — the full reset. Sleep deeper, feel lighter, think clearer. The symptom clusters have been addressed at the root.
Your 90-Day Reset Tracker maps this in detail.
How many calories per serving?
Each serving has 36 calories per scoop.
Does it contain any sugar?
The product contains less than 1g of sugar per scoop coming from the real fruit ingredients.
What's your return policy?
Within 90 days of first delivery. If you don't feel a noticeable difference, email us and we refund your full investment. No return shipping. No forms to fill out. We'd rather refund you than have you feel like we wasted your time. We do this for 1 in every 1000 orders.
Will I have to pay customs or delivery charges?
No. We ship from Northern Ireland, which sits inside both the UK and EU markets for goods — so there are no customs charges, no import duty and no surprise fees on arrival, whether you’re in Cork, Cardiff or anywhere in between.
Delivery is free on every order. What you see at checkout is what you pay.
Your gut isn't broken. Let's break the loop.
One scoop each morning. A 90-day reset, guaranteed.
