How we help:
Vitamin C: A powerful antioxidant that helps neutralise oxidative stress from alcohol consumption.

L-Glutamine: Supports mucosal repair and protects against alcohol-induced gut barrier damage.
Grapeseed Extract: Antioxidant-rich and anti-inflammatory, supports detox pathways and gut lining protection.

Amla Berry & Ginger: Help reduce inflammation and support healthy digestion.
Magnesium & Vitamin C: Aid enzyme function and energy metabolism, helping the gut process and recover from poor dietary inputs.
Poo Perfect™ Blend: Targets motility, inflammation and microbiota support for smoother, more regular digestion.

Magnesium Citrate: Supports nervous system function and helps regulate stress response and bowel regularity.
