Microdosing Vets
An ethics-approved qualitative investigation into microdosing LSD and veteran PTSD, pairing participant accounts with observer perspectives and keeping the research separate from commerce.

The questions that guide us home.
Foundation Labs investigates what restores and expands human capacity — and how to tell what actually works.
Research and commerce are kept apart on purpose. The research sells nothing. The apothecary claims nothing it cannot support.

The Apothecary
What earns a place here.
Made in house
Spagyric Formulations
Small-batch spagyric extracts made slowly: tincture, decoction, and mineral salts separated, purified, and recombined. The process is the point; nothing is hurried for the sake of scale.

Supplements
A broader shelf for people who already know what they need. We are rebuilding its presentation around three questions: why this formulation, what supports it, and where the evidence stops.

Three principles guide the work.
I
Rigor in inquiry.
The research is conducted under formal ethics oversight, with methodology and findings held to academic standards. We publish what we find, including when it is inconvenient.
II
Integrity in formulation.
Every offering is sourced for what it does, not for what it can be claimed to do. If we cannot say plainly why something is here, it does not belong here.
III
Reverence for the body.
The body is the foundation of everything that follows — every practice, every insight, every ambition. The work is in service of stewarding it well.
We are not arrived. We are in process, like you — and we would rather walk beside you than lead from the front.
