The Foundations Pack

The four compounds the consultation gives almost everyone. Start here if you would rather not answer questions today.

We ran twenty thousand answer profiles through our own recommendation engine to see which compounds it actually reaches for. Four came up again and again: magnesium glycinate in ninety-nine per cent of finished stacks, a methylated B-complex in about four out of five, with omega-3 and vitamin D close behind. Those four are this pack. It is the honest middle between taking nothing and taking fifteen things, and it is the base layer the sleep, recovery and hormone packs all assume is already in place. Set your expectations correctly: this is preventive infrastructure, not a feeling.

What this pack is for

• The four compounds our own engine puts in almost every stack, without answering a single question.
• Covers the shortfalls modern life actually creates: little sunlight, little oily fish, and a mineral most diets run short on.
• Supports normal energy metabolism, bone and cardiovascular health, and sleep quality — as a background job rather than a daily sensation.
• Replaces a shelf of bottles with one pre-sorted packet a day, delivered monthly.
• The forms that absorb: D3 with K2, magnesium bisglycinate chelate, methylated B vitamins, and real EPA and DHA.

What's inside

The Vitamin D + K2 capsule also contains vitamins A and E. If you take a blood thinner such as warfarin, check with your prescriber before starting, because vitamin K can work against it. If you take isotretinoin or another retinoid medicine, swap this capsule out of your pack: retinoids should not be combined with vitamin A supplements.

You pay for the number of supplements, not which ones. Swap any of these for anything else in the 52-compound formulary and your price stays exactly the same — only moving to a different pack size changes it.

What to expect

1. 01Week 1: you will not feel anything, and that is the correct outcome. The only common early effect is magnesium in the evening nudging your sleep.
2. 02Weeks 2–4: if your B vitamin intake was genuinely low, everyday energy metabolism is where people tend to notice something first. If it was not, you will notice nothing, which is also fine.
3. 038+ weeks: this is when a vitamin D retest earns its cost. Give deficiency corrections eight to twelve weeks, then measure rather than re-guess.
