Foundational Health Strategies — Stack Audit Intake

How it works

Two photos and one tap, per bottle

No typing out labels. No account to create. Most people finish a bottle in under a minute.

Photograph the front

One picture of the front of the bottle tells us the brand and the product — no typing required.

Photograph the label

Take as many pictures as you need to cover the whole Supplement Facts panel and the Other Ingredients list. That's where the extras hide.

Answer one question

“Why are you taking this supplement?” Either it's for a health goal, or it's for one or more specific ingredients. One tap — that's the whole interview.

Your free audit

Build your stack

Try the preview below with the bottles you take regularly — the photos you add here stay on your own device. When you're ready, send your stack in through the intake form: it asks for the same things, bottle by bottle — a front photo, your label photos, and the one “why” question — and when you submit, it comes straight to us. Nothing to download, copy, or email yourself.

Send your stack in

Ready? Open the intake form and submit your stack there. It takes your name and email, then — for each bottle — a photo of the front, as many label photos as you need to cover the facts panel and the other ingredients, and the one question: why are you taking this supplement? When you hit submit, it lands directly in our inbox — no downloading, no copying, nothing to attach to an email yourself. We'll read the labels, write Your report in plain language, and send it back with a proposal for one streamlined formula. Reading it commits you to nothing.

Start your free audit

The photos you add to the preview above stay on this device; the photos you upload in the intake form are sent to us with your submission so we can read your labels. This audit is an educational review of the labels you show us — it is not medical advice, not a diagnosis, and not a substitute for talking with your own doctor. Don't stop or change any supplement or medication based on a label audit alone.

Sample report — an example of what yours will read like

Your report

What we found in your stack

Based on your inputs, you have a bunch of extra ingredients in your supplements. Capsules are only so big, so the more of those extras — like silicon dioxide, which is literally sand — are put in there, the less room there is for the ingredients that matter.

Some of what you're taking shows up in more than one bottle, so you're getting more of it than any single label suggests. And a few things are in there that you didn't buy the bottle for at all — they just rode along.

By eliminating all of that, your recommended formula will be just what you want, nothing you don't.

The extras we spotted

Silicon dioxide (sand)
Magnesium stearate
Microcrystalline cellulose
Stearic acid
Titanium dioxide
Rice flour

The form matters, not just the amount This sample stack's multivitamin lists folic acid — the man-made form of folate that a large share of people can't convert well. In a custom formula, that becomes methylfolate, the form your body can actually use. We check every label for forms like this, not just totals.

Want the numbers?

Behind the plain language, every total in your stack is added up across all your bottles and compared with the published adult upper intake levels — the most of a nutrient generally considered safe to take in a day. Here are the ones we check:

Nutrient	Published upper limit (per day)
Vitamin A	3,000 mcg
Vitamin C	2,000 mg
Vitamin D	100 mcg (4,000 IU)
Vitamin E	1,000 mg
Vitamin B6	100 mg
Niacin	35 mg
Folate (as folic acid)	1,000 mcg
Calcium	2,500 mg
Iron	45 mg
Zinc	40 mg
Magnesium (from supplements)	350 mg
Selenium	400 mcg
Iodine	1,100 mcg

Adult tolerable upper intake levels published by the National Academies and listed by the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements. Some vary by age. These are educational reference points, not personal recommendations.

The proposal

“Just what you want, nothing you don't.”

After the audit, we can collapse your whole shelf into one custom formula — compounded for you by our formulating partner, at the doses your audit landed on, in the forms that matter. One bottle instead of a shelf full.

A worked example: the senior stack

Nine separate purchases, replaced by one formula of about two capsules a day:

Vitamin D32,000 IU
Vitamin K2 (MK-7)100 mcg
Magnesium bisglycinate200 mg
Methylfolate (Quatrefolic®)active form
Methylcobalamin (B12)500 mcg
Vitamin B6 (P5P)10 mg
CoQ10100 mg
Vitamin C250 mg
Zinc picolinate15 mg

The same stack, as one formula

One formula, built for you

The stack above becomes a single custom formula — compounded and shipped to your door by our formulating partner.

Once your formula is built, you'll see your exact price on the checkout page — before you decide anything.

Worth knowing

Two label lessons we teach every client

The audit checks the form of every nutrient, not just the amount — because these two show up on almost every shelf we review.

Folic acid→Folate (methylfolate)

The folate your body has to convert

Folic acid is a man-made chemical that doesn't exist in food. Before your body can use it, it has to convert it into folate — and a large share of people carry gene variants (you may have heard of MTHFR) that sharply reduce their ability to make that conversion. For them, unconverted folic acid can build up while the folate they actually need stays low.

It's in nearly every inexpensive multivitamin and plenty of fortified foods. Our formulas skip it entirely and use methylfolate — the active form, ready to use, no conversion required.

Ascorbic acid alone→Vitamin C, whole-food style

Ascorbic acid isn't the whole vitamin C

The FDA allows ascorbic acid to be labeled “vitamin C.” But in real food, vitamin C never shows up alone — it arrives with companion nutrients that help it do its job. Ascorbic acid by itself is one piece of that picture, not the whole of it.

That's why we look for whole-food sources of vitamin C — foods like acerola and camu camu — first when we build a formula, instead of defaulting to the cheapest isolated form on the label.
