EUROFINS TESTED
NO PROPRIETARY BLENDS
FORMULATED FOR WOMEN 40+
WHY THIS FORMULA EXISTS
Your gut after 40 needs more than one thing.
Most gut supplements address one part of a multi-layer problem. The Foundation works across five layers — calming the stress hormone cycle, supporting digestion, building microbiome diversity, introducing live cultures, and ensuring your body can absorb what you're putting into it.
01
CALM THE CORTISOL LOOP
The stress hormone cycle damaging your gut lining since perimenopause started.
KSM-66 Ashwagandha 500mg
500mg
Aquamin Magnesium
WHY THIS LAYER MATTERS
02
SUPPORT DIGESTION
Stomach acid and enzyme production decline after 40.
Digezyme — 5 enzymes
150mg
A clinically validated full-spectrum enzyme blend. Protease, α-Amylase 24,000 DU/g, Cellulase 1,100 CU/g, Lactase 4,000 ALU/g, and Neutral Protease 6,000 PC/g — breaking down protein, carbohydrate, fibre, and dairy.
Herbal botanical blend
525mg total
Turmeric root 100mg · Fennel leaf 100mg · Dandelion root 100mg · Cinnamon extract 100mg · Ginger root extract 50mg · Peppermint leaf extract 25mg. Traditional digestive botanicals for bloating, gas, and post-meal discomfort.
WHY THIS LAYER MATTERS
You can take the most expensive supplement on the market, but if your body can't break it down properly, you're paying for nutrients that pass through. The enzyme layer is what makes the rest of the formula bioavailable.
03
MICROBIOME DIVERSITY
Real plant material at meaningful doses — the food your gut bacteria actually need.
Polyphenol Fruit Blend
1,533mg
24 fruits including acai, blueberry, pomegranate, elderberry, black currant, cherry, raspberry, cranberry,
strawberry, mango, papaya, pineapple, plum, prune, goji, noni, lemon peel, orange peel, banana, apple, and pumpkin. Polyphenols feed beneficial bacteria and support microbiome diversity.
Antioxidant Greens + Veg Blend
1,350mg
14 greens and vegetables: alfalfa, chlorella, hibiscus, purple cabbage, beet juice, broccoli, carrot, collard green, kale, kelp, parsley, spinach, spirulina, and tomato. Chlorophyll, micronutrients, and the fibre diversity gut bacteria thrive on.
Spirulina
970mg
A standalone inclusion at clinical dose. Anti-inflammatory, iron-supporting, and a source of bioavailable protein co-factors.
WHY THIS LAYER MATTERS
The live cultures in Layer 04 need food to do their work. Most supplements add a single prebiotic fibre and call it done. We use 35+ varieties of real plant material — fruits, greens, vegetables, polyphenols — at doses that actually feed the microbiome.
04
LIVE CULTURES
Five clinically researched strains the body recognises.
Lactobacillus plantarum
Part of 5BN CFU blend
A widely studied strain with broad gut compatibility — gentle introduction for sensitive systems.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Part of 5BN CFU blend
One of the most evidence-backed strains for women's gut health, including IBS and digestive comfort.
Bifidobacterium lactis
Part of 5BN CFU blend
Supports the colon and overall gut transit. Naturally declines with age.
Lactobacillus casei
Part of 5BN CFU blend
Helps maintain microbial balance and supports the gut's natural barrier function.
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Part of 5BN CFU blend
A foundational strain with a long research track record for general digestive support.
WHY THIS LAYER MATTERS
Five strains at 5 billion CFU total, formulated for gentle daily introduction rather than acute high-dose intervention. The September formula increases this to 20BN CFU and adds L. reuteri specifically for estrobolome support — see below.
05
ABSORB WHAT YOU EAT
The bioavailability layer most formulas skip.
BioPerine Black Pepper Extract
10mg
A patented black pepper extract standardised to 95% piperine. Increases absorption of nutrients across the formula by up to 20× — turmeric, ashwagandha, and the wider antioxidant blend all benefit.
Aquamin Marine Minerals
120mg
Seaweed-derived calcium plus 72 trace minerals — magnesium, zinc, selenium, and the wider micronutrient profile. Supports bone density, a specific concern after 40.
WHY THIS LAYER MATTERS
Bioavailability is the layer most brands skip because it's a small line item that looks unimpressive. It's also the layer that determines whether the rest of the scoop actually does anything in your body.

formulation roadmap
What’s coming in September.
We don't believe in launching a formula and standing still. The September formula adds the layers research has identified as the next tier of gut support for women 40+ — at clinically validated doses.
Acacia Fibre at 5,000mg
Acacia Fibre at 5,000mg- Low FODMAP and gentle on sensitive stomachs. Supports the probiotic strains by providing a slow fermentation substrate that feeds Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus selectively.
Zinc Carnosine at 150mg
Dosed at the level used in mucosal repair research. Supports the gut barrier from the inside
Lactobacillus reuteri added
Specifically chosen for estrobolome support — the bacterial community that metabolises oestrogen.
Total live cultures increased to 20BN CFU
Up from 5BN, with B. longum prioritised given its sharp decline after 40.
Increased clinical doses
Ginger to 250mg, peppermint to 100mg, magnesium glycinate at 200mg.
