Every ingredient in every Anchor formula has a specific job and a published dose. No proprietary blends. No padding. Here's what's inside and why.
Most supplement formulas list ingredients on the label without specifying amounts — a practice known as a proprietary blend. This allows manufacturers to include trace amounts of expensive or clinically validated ingredients while still putting them on the label.
Anchor lists every ingredient with its exact dose. Each dose is based on the amounts used in peer-reviewed clinical research, not on what fits the cheapest unit economics.
Ginger root at 500mg is the dose used in multiple randomized controlled trials studying GI motility and nausea reduction. The gingerol standardization (5%) ensures you're getting the bioactive compound, not filler plant material.
Peppermint leaf at 200mg has been studied specifically for IBS-related bloating and abdominal discomfort — symptoms that overlap significantly with GLP-1 side effects.
5g soluble fiber supports healthy gut motility and slows gastric emptying, complementing the mechanism of GLP-1 therapy rather than fighting it.
Leucine at 2.5g is the threshold dose shown in muscle protein synthesis research to trigger the mTOR pathway — the signal that tells your body to build and preserve muscle. Most protein supplements don't specify leucine content; Anchor does.
Creatine monohydrate at 5g is the daily dose for muscle preservation, one of the most researched compounds in sports nutrition with consistent evidence for lean mass preservation during caloric restriction.
Whey protein isolate is used instead of concentrate because isolate has had most of the fat and lactose removed — higher protein density per gram, fewer GI side effects.
Methylcobalamin B12 at 500mcg uses the active form of B12, which requires no conversion by the liver — important for people whose absorption may be compromised. B12 deficiency is among the most common on calorie-restricted diets.
Vitamin D3 at 2,000 IU addresses the widespread deficiency that affects an estimated 40% of adults, with implications for immune function, mood, and bone density — all relevant during significant weight loss.
