Foundational Nutrition

Our science-driven approach to supporting whole body health

CALL IT A PARADIGM SHIFT

As science evolves, so does our approach to nutrition

For years, nutrition focused solely on macronutrients (carbs, fats, and proteins) and micronutrients, largely ignoring metabolic, gut, stress, and immune issues. But, emerging research now shows our bodies need more for physical and mental health. We need a solution that reconsiders the types of nutrients considered foundational and how they work together. AG1 is leading the Foundational Nutrition movement, providing that solution in one simple, daily, drinkable habit.*

The building blocks of Foundational Nutrition

Micronutrients

Micronutrients, from vitamins and minerals, energize and support the cells of the brain, gut, and immune systems.*

Micronutrients are as important to life as macronutrients — they’re just needed in smaller amounts (hence micro). These nutrients are a key part of Foundational Nutrition as they act as individual building blocks in the body and are required for cellular turnover. Without them, we couldn’t produce energy, build proteins, metabolize food, or other vital processes.* Vitamins Minerals

Phytonutrients

Phytonutrients, found in whole foods, help balance the body and maintain key processes between all of our health systems.*

In line with the latest research showing a connection between longer health spans and a diet rich in phytonutrients, Foundational Nutrition expands on traditional nutrient recommendations to include these active compounds. Phytonutrients, which are also micro in size, are found in the roots, seeds, fruits, and leaves of plants, and support the body in ways that help optimize nutrition each day, and with age.* Stress adaptogens Antioxidants Functional mushrooms Superfoods Digestive support (enzymes, aminos, and more)

Synbiotics

Pre and probiotics, known as synbiotics, optimize the gut to unlock nutrient access and enhance absorption.*

We are not well designed to absorb all nutrients from plants, so we require our gut and gut microbiome to help us to digest and transform nutrients so they are more effective in the body. Foundational Nutrition employs pre and probiotics to support these systems, because micro and phytonutrients are only as powerful as they are useful. Prebiotics Probiotics

Going beyond food for optimal health

Foundational Nutrition supplements raise our baseline health by comprehensively nourishing the whole body, from our brain to our gut to our immune system. Signs of good health like energy, strength, and vitality are a reflection of adequate nutrition daily.*
The brain and nerves make up one of the most nutritionally demanding systems in the body. It is the control center for almost every function we have — physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Going beyond food for optimal health

The need for Foundational Nutrition supplements
To support our baseline, we have essential needs like nutrient replenishment, stress management, gut optimization, and immune support. While some micronutrients can be obtained through diet alone, optimal health requires more. For a strong health foundation, a diverse set of phytonutrients and gut support - both of which are hard to get in the standard diet - are key.*

AG1 is the ultimate Foundational Nutrition supplement that provides all three at adequate levels, closing the gap between surviving and thriving.

One scoop. Every morning. For life.

The nutrition solution trusted by experts

“I have taken AG1 daily since 2012. It makes it easy for me to get a wide array of high-quality vitamins, minerals, probiotics, fiber, and adaptogens, and it tastes great. When I take it, I notice that I have more energy and my digestion is better. Put simply, AG1 is foundational to my nutrition and my overall health.*”
Andrew Huberman, PhD
Neuroscientist and host of the Huberman Lab
“Everyone has certain foundational nutrients they need to function at their best. I love that AG1 provides these in just one scoop. From micronutrients to phytonutrients to pre-and probiotics, it gives me peace of mind that my bases are covered and nutritional gaps, filled. As a former all in one supplement skeptic, I am thoroughly impressed with and highly recommend AG1.”

AG1 underwent a research-backed update in January of 2025. Reviews prior to that month reflect an earlier formulation.

Do I need to drink AG1 every day?
The benefits of AG1 Next Gen compound over time. In a single-arm interventional study (104 healthy adults ages 25-59 assessing self-perceived efficacy of AG1 over 3 months ), 80% of participants felt their digestion improved after 2 weeks, and 85% of participants felt more energy after 30 days of drinking AG1 Next Gen.
AG1 Next Gen is clinically shown to close common nutrient gaps and support gut health. You can read more about what we studied and learned here.

Fill your AG1 shaker bottle or a glass with 8 to 10 ounces of cold water. Then, add one level 13g scoop or one travel pack of AG1 powder. Shake or stir until fully blended. Don’t forget – your AG1 pouch (or canister) contains live probiotics culture and must be stored in a refrigerator after opening.
AG1 tastes like pineapple and vanilla, without added sugar or artificial sweeteners.
