How it works
Delivery is the
whole point.
Two products can contain exactly the same thing and behave completely differently, because most of what happens to a supplement happens after you take it. FlexFlash™ is our name for the boring, specific engineering that decides that.
How to use
Fast. Simple. Effective.
-
Place a single strip on your tongue
Remove a single film strip from the protective packet and place it on your tongue.
-
Let the strip adhere to the top of your mouth
Once on your tongue, guide the strip to the roof of your mouth where it will stick.
-
Allow 30-45 seconds for maximum absorption
Wait until the film has completely dissolved and absorbed. Do not chew or swallow whole.
Hold in place for optimal absorption
Why those three steps
Why the roof of your mouth.
-
Swallowing takes the long way
Swallow something and it goes where all food goes: down, into stomach acid, then through the liver before anything reaches circulation. Whatever survives that trip is what you actually got, and how much survives depends on what else you ate that morning.
-
The lining of your mouth is a different door
It is thin, permeable, and densely supplied with blood vessels. A film held against it dissolves where you put it, rather than handing its contents to your digestion first. That is why the second step is the roof of your mouth and not the back of your throat.
-
Which is why the last step is a wait
Thirty to forty-five seconds is simply how long the film takes to be gone. Nothing about that is magic, and we are not going to dress it up as such: the same care about what goes into the formula, and a shorter, more predictable route once it is in you.
What is in the film
Four things,
and no more.
- Pullulan film
- A neutral, vegan polysaccharide base. It is what makes the strip a strip: strong enough to handle, quick enough to disappear.
- The actives
- Dosed by weight into the film before it is cast, so the amount is set at manufacture rather than measured by you.
- Stevia and flavour
- One flavour per formula. Enough to make a daily habit pleasant, not enough to make it a sweet.
- Nothing else
- No dyes for the sake of colour, no fillers, no sugar, no gluten.
Testing
We do not grade our own work.
Every production lot is sent to an independent laboratory, which confirms the identity and purity of what is in it. The result is tied to the lot number printed on your carton, so the box in your hand traces back to a specific test rather than to a general promise. Nothing ships on an in-house result alone.
Manufacturing runs in a cGMP facility in the United States. If you want the paperwork for the lot you were sent, ask us and we will send it.
