Foundation № 4 · Digestion – the gut that behaves
Meadow™
Meadow™
For the bloat that arrives by afternoon.
Most probiotics are dead before they reach your gut. Living bacteria have to survive the acid bath of your stomach, and most don't. Meadow armors them through it: four strains named by exact ID, delivered alive by marine-based MAKTREK® Bi-Pass technology, then fed by the prebiotic fiber they need to take hold.
Some women feel the bloat ease in weeks 1–2; "regular again" typically lands weeks 3–4. If week two feels like nothing, that's normal, and covered: 90 days, every cent back.

Description
Most probiotics are dead before they reach your gut. Living bacteria have to survive the acid bath of your stomach, and most don't. Meadow armors them through it: four strains named by exact ID, delivered alive by marine-based MAKTREK® Bi-Pass technology, then fed by the prebiotic fiber they need to take hold.
What's inside: 40 billion CFU per 2-capsule serving. Made with a named four-strain community of probiotic bacteria: L. acidophilus (La-14), B. lactis (Bl-04), L. plantarum (Lp-115), and L. paracasei (Lpc-37), with MAKTREK® Bi-Pass Technology, a marine polysaccharide complex, and fructooligosaccharide (FOS) prebiotic. On the label these sit under one line, "Proprietary Blend of Probiotic Bacteria, 40 Billion CFU", so we name all four strain IDs here and on the panel. Other ingredients: cellulose (vegetable capsule), rice maltodextrin, L-leucine.
Directions: Take 2 capsules daily with water, with a meal, at the same time each day.
What's not in it: Strains named, never hidden. No dairy, no corn. Survives stomach acid or it doesn't count.
Some women feel the bloat ease in weeks 1 to 2; "regular again" typically lands weeks 3 to 4. If week two feels like nothing, that's normal, and covered: 90 days, every cent back.

The promise
A gut that behaves like yours again.
Less bloat by afternoon.
A stomach that isn’t fighting you by 3 p.m. Supports digestion so your gut stops keeping score. (The gut reset.)
Regular again.
The predictability you stopped noticing until it left, supporting the rhythm a behaving gut runs on.
A gut back in balance.
The quiet, behaving version you remember, balanced digestion is one of the first legs women re-steady on.
You’re not broken
Nowhere near alone
The afternoon bloat and the gut that stopped being predictable are one of the most common, least-talked-about parts of the change.
How it works
How Meadow actually works, three parts that work together.
Here’s what almost no one tells you: most probiotics are dead before they reach your gut. They’re living bacteria, and they have to survive the acid bath of your stomach to do anything at all, and most don’t. So you took them faithfully, felt nothing, and decided probiotics just don’t work for you. They might have, they just never made it. Meadow is built around that exact problem.
Your gut runs on a community of beneficial bacteria. When that community thins or tips out of balance, which happens as your hormones shift in midlife, digestion gets unpredictable. Meadow restores it, in three parts:
The bacteria. Four clinically-studied strains, L. acidophilus (La-14), B. lactis (Bl-04), L. plantarum (Lp-115), L. paracasei (Lpc-37), at 40 billion CFU, to replenish and support your gut’s beneficial community.
The armored delivery. A marine-based MAKTREK Bi-Pass technology that shields the bacteria through stomach acid, so they reach your gut alive, the step most probiotics skip.
Their food. A prebiotic fiber (FOS) that feeds the bacteria once they arrive, so the community can actually take hold.
Passengers, an armored truck to get them there, and food for when they arrive. That’s the whole system, nothing mysterious, every part named.
The ritual
Your daily reset, 2 capsules a day, with a meal.
Two capsules a day, with a meal. One clean dose, every day, to keep the community supported. (60 capsules, a one-month supply.)
What to expect
What to honestly expect, week by week.
Settling in. Your system is adjusting; some women notice the bloat ease first.
More regular. More predictable, less afternoon bloat.
Behaving again. A gut that feels quiet, balanced, and yours.
Complete the routine
A stomach that keeps score is usually keeping score of stress.
Meadow restocks the gut's own workforce: 40 billion CFU across four named strains, delivered past stomach acid. But the gut does not wobble in private. It talks to your stress response all day, in both directions, which is why tense weeks so often show up at the table. Rooted™ steadies the other end of that conversation with 1,300 mg of ashwagandha. One honest note: probiotic evidence is moderate and strain-dependent, and a re-seeded gut takes weeks, not days. Both bottles carry the same 90 days.
Together they are the Feel Like Me Again Set: $169.00, $38.00 less than the bottles separately.
Or start with Meadow alone. That is still a right answer.
The named community
One job per formula. Every strain named. Every CFU on the label.
This is the one foundation that isn’t a single ingredient, and we’ll be straight about why: a gut needs a defined community, not one bacterium. So instead of hiding that behind “proprietary blend,” we name every part.
40 billion CFU, across four clinically-studied strains: L. acidophilus (La-14) · B. lactis (Bl-04) · L. plantarum (Lp-115) · L. paracasei (Lpc-37). Each named by its exact strain ID, because “lactobacillus” with no ID tells you nothing; the strain is what’s been studied.
MAKTREK Bi-Pass delivery, a marine-polysaccharide technology that shields the bacteria through stomach acid.
Prebiotic FOS, the food that helps the community take hold.
Honest about the evidence: probiotics for digestion and regularity are supported well enough that we’re comfortable making structure/function claims, graded moderate, and strain-dependent, and we name the strains precisely so you can look them up yourself. The one thing we won’t pretend: this is a blend, and the label says so. What we refuse to do is hide it, every strain named, every CFU on the label.
What’s not in it
What we left out, on purpose.
What the research shows
40 billion CFU
across four clinically-studied, strain-identified probiotics (La-14 · Bl-04 · Lp-115 · Lpc-37), delivered past stomach acid by MAKTREK Bi-Pass; probiotic evidence for digestion grades moderate and strain-dependent. This describes published research on these strains, not a study of Meadow.
In published studies, specific probiotic strains have been associated with support for digestion and regularity. The evidence grades moderate and is strain-dependent. This describes published research on these strains, not a study of Meadow.
What women say about Meadow

-
I’d stopped making lunch plans because I never knew what my stomach would do. Getting that back, being able to just say yes, is the part I didn’t expect to feel emotional about.

-
Not bloated by lunch, and regular again by week three. I hadn’t realized how much of my day quietly revolved around my gut until it stopped.
Verified buyer
-
I’d written off probiotics after three brands did nothing. There were a couple of odd adjustment days, they warn you, then week four arrived and I just felt settled. The first one I could actually feel.

The science
Formulated against established gut science, every strain named.
Dr. Helen Park, PharmD

A gut doesn’t need one bacterium; it needs a defined community. Meadow names every member, four clinically-studied strains at 40 billion CFU, with a MAKTREK Bi-Pass delivery built to get them through stomach acid alive. The evidence for probiotics in digestion grades moderate and is strain-dependent, which is exactly why we name the strains so you can look them up yourself.

Questions, answered
Collapsible content
I’ve tried probiotics and they did nothing. Why would this be different?
I’ve tried probiotics and they did nothing. Why would this be different?
Because most probiotics die in stomach acid before they reach your gut. Meadow’s MAKTREK Bi-Pass delivery is built to get them there alive, the step the ones that didn’t work for you likely skipped. The strains you took may have been fine; they just never arrived.
You say “no proprietary blends,” but the label says “Proprietary Blend”?
You say “no proprietary blends,” but the label says “Proprietary Blend”?
Fair catch, and here’s the honest answer. A gut needs a community of strains, not one, so a probiotic is the single place where one ingredient is the wrong answer. What we refuse to do is hide the strains. We name all four by their exact ID, L. acidophilus (La-14), B. lactis (Bl-04), L. plantarum (Lp-115), L. paracasei (Lpc-37), and put the 40 billion CFU on the label. Named, not hidden, that’s the standard we actually hold.
Does it need to be refrigerated?
Does it need to be refrigerated?
No, store it in a cool, dry place. It’s made to be shelf-stable. Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
Is it dairy-free?
Is it dairy-free?
Yes, it’s lactose-free, made with a vegetable (cellulose) capsule. The marine-derived delivery’s full allergen details are confirmed on the label.
Can I take it with the others?
Can I take it with the others?
Yes, built to stack. Many women pair Meadow with Rooted, because your gut and your stress system are in constant conversation. Re-steady one leg at a time, or stack them.
Can I actually cancel, or is the subscription a trap?
Can I actually cancel, or is the subscription a trap?
Skip, pause, swap, or cancel in one tap, anytime, no phone, no chat, no maze, and we send a reminder email before every charge. We say it this plainly because the opposite is what this category is most hated for.
What’s the dose, exactly, and when?
What’s the dose, exactly, and when?
40 billion CFU across four named strains (La-14, Bl-04, Lp-115, Lpc-37), plus prebiotic FOS, per 2-capsule serving, taken once a day with a meal. 60 capsules per bottle, a one-month supply. On the label, COA on the bottle.
Can I take it with the other foundations?
Can I take it with the other foundations?
Yes. Each foundation is one job at a clinical dose, with no overlapping actives, so they are designed to be taken together. If you want a pre-built pattern, the Feel Like Me Again Set pairs Meadow with Rooted and Vivid, priced as a Set.
We made SteadyShe for the woman who was told she was fine when she knew she wasn’t.
You’re not falling apart, and you’re not too young, and you’re not imagining it. Your foundation wobbled, a real, explicable thing, and you deserve to know exactly what you’re taking and a gut that feels like yours again. Meadow is one leg of that. For the body in menopause, because sharp is not over.
