Our Story

I'm in my 40s, and a few years ago I started caring a lot more about what I actually put in my body.

Not in an anxious way. In the way you start caring about the foundation of a house you plan to live in for another forty years. I want to hike with my kids when I'm 70. I want to see clearly. I want to remember the stories. I want strength that doesn't fade early.

So my own rule got simple and strict: I'm not putting anything in my body unless it's proven and safe. Not promising. Not trending. Proven — as in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in humans. And safe over years, not weeks.

Turns out that's a high bar. I'm a physician, and as I researched I found that most supplements are under-dosed, trend-chasing, or backed by nothing real. I couldn't find anything that met my standards of safety and effectiveness.

So I built the one I wanted for myself.

Who this is for

Two kinds of men, really.

The first one already gets it. You track your numbers. You read the studies. You've been burned by supplements that didn't hold up. You've just never found a foundation built to your standard. This is that.

The second one is starting to pay attention. Maybe your body's sending signals. Maybe your wife is. Either way, you know you should be doing something for yourself, and you want it to be the right something — not whatever the ad in your feed is pushing. This is a real place to start.

Both of you get the same thing: a daily foundation made only of what's proven to work, and safe enough to take for years.

That's the foundation. Everything below it is why I trust it, and everything above it is where you go next.

What that rule threw out

It's an expensive rule. It cut ingredients that sit in almost every bottle on the shelf or that might be "hot" or "sexy" right now.

No testosterone "booster" herbs. The loud ones — tribulus, maca — don't hold up in men. And the couple that do show real data (like ashwagandha) have case reports of liver damage that made me uncomfortable putting it in a foundational tablet.

No beta-carotene, which is why there's no vitamin A on the label at all. Two large trials had to be stopped for extra cancer in men who smoked. A lot of men over 45 used to smoke, and I can't know that when someone buys this off the shelf or online.

No proprietary blends, no stimulants, no fillers I can't defend. Everything in Altrek is on the label with a number next to it. Here's the full list of what I left out, and why.

Where the foundation ends

I'll be straight about the limits, too. The deeper I go into longevity medicine, the more convinced I am that the best of this is personalized — and a capsule can't personalize.

Altrek covers what nearly every man over 40 needs, no matter what his labs say. That's real, and it's the part worth getting right for everyone. What it can't do is tell you your numbers — your testosterone, your ApoB, your vitamin D, your family history — or build a plan around them.

Altrek is the floor. Your numbers are the ceiling.

If you want this dialed in to you specifically — the full panel, the plan, the follow-up — that's the next step up, and it's the work I do with men one-on-one. Start with the foundation today, on your own. When you're ready to go further, come find me.

What I won't tell you

I won't tell you this spikes your testosterone. Nothing does that in a man who isn't deficient, and I'd rather lose the sale than pretend.

I won't tell you it makes you live longer. No supplement has ever been shown to do that.

And I won't imply the trials behind these ingredients were run on this product. They weren't. They're trials of the individual nutrients, and that difference matters.

What Altrek is: a well-dosed daily foundation, built from things with real human evidence behind them, with every bit of that evidence published so you can check my work yourself.

That's the whole pitch. Live longer, stronger, and happier.
