Built for absorption.
Most of what's in the supplement aisle was designed for shelf life, not for your bloodstream. We started MaxHealth to fix that.
Walk into any supplement aisle and you'll find shelves of bottles promising 1,000 mg of this and 500 mg of that. The numbers on the labels keep getting bigger every year. The actual amount that reaches your bloodstream? In most cases, it's been roughly the same since the 1970s.
The supplement industry has spent four decades perfecting a delivery format — the swallowed capsule — that's fundamentally bad for most of the compounds inside it. Capsules have to survive stomach acid, get past digestive enzymes, and then make it through your liver before any of the active ingredient reaches circulation. For many compounds, 60–80% gets lost along the way.
The industry's solution has been to dose higher and write bigger numbers on the bottle. We thought there should be a better one.
MaxHealth formulates supplements as sublingual oral strips: thin films that dissolve under your tongue in about 60 seconds, sending the active compounds directly into your bloodstream through the sublingual mucosa. No stomach acid. No first-pass liver metabolism. No fillers. Faster onset, smaller effective doses, and most importantly: what's on the label is closer to what reaches you.
This isn't novel chemistry. Sublingual delivery has been used in pharmaceutical medicine for decades — for nitroglycerin, B12, opioid replacement therapy. The supplement industry just hasn't bothered to adopt it. We did.
Three things we don't bend on.
Bioavailability over marketing math
We dose for what reaches your bloodstream, not for what reads well on a label. A 50 mg sublingual dose that delivers consistently beats a 1,000 mg capsule that delivers 12% — every time.
Clinical-grade or nothing
Manufactured in cGMP-certified facilities. Every batch third-party tested for identity, potency, and heavy metals. Plant-based film, no synthetic dyes, no fillers.
Honest claims, conservative dosing
We won't claim what we can't back up. Our melatonin is 1 mg, not 10. Our caffeine is 50 mg, not 200. Smaller smart doses outperform megadoses for most compounds, and we'd rather have a customer who feels something work than one who feels something happen.
The people behind it.
