APS · Lupus · Autoimmune Clotting

Autoimmune disease deserves food you can trust.

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), lupus, and related autoimmune conditions often travel with celiac and food sensitivities. We build food for the whole picture.

The Conditions

One immune system, many overlapping diagnoses

Autoimmune disease rarely shows up alone. APS, lupus, celiac, Hashimoto's, type 1 diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease cluster in the same families and frequently in the same patient.

APS (antiphospholipid syndrome) causes the blood to clot abnormally — leading to strokes, deep-vein thrombosis, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST), and recurrent miscarriage. Most patients are placed on lifelong anticoagulation.

Lupus (SLE) attacks joints, skin, kidneys, brain, and heart. Roughly 30–40% of lupus patients also test positive for antiphospholipid antibodies. Black, Latina, and Asian women are disproportionately affected.

For families navigating these diagnoses, every ingredient label is part of treatment.

Our Approach

Allergen-safe, anti-inflammatory, traceable

Anti-inflammatory by design

Vegan, top-15 allergen-free, gluten-free — engineered to remove the most common immune triggers.

Consistent vitamin K

Patients on warfarin/apixaban need predictable vitamin K. Our nutritional consistency supports steady anticoagulation.

Built for autoimmune overlap

We treat celiac, APS, lupus, and food allergy as the connected story they often are.
