How to build a daily stack

A simple three-layer way to think about what you take every day: foundation, goal, recovery.

Updated September 3, 2026

A “stack” is just the small set of products you take on a routine. Most people end up with one by accident: a greens powder here, an electrolyte there, something for the evening. Building it on purpose is easier than it sounds, and it keeps you from buying things that overlap.

We use a three-layer model on this marketplace. It is the same logic the Bundle Builder uses, so once you understand it you can build any stack yourself.

Layer 1 — Foundation

The foundation is what you would take even if you had no specific goal: daily nutrition and hydration. On this marketplace that means the superfood and functional-food products (ALVARA Myco Nectar, VORG SuperShake or SuperGreens, EDERRA EMPWR+, NutrimentsPRO A-GUARD or the Superfood Nutritional Formula) and an electrolyte or mineral product for the days you train or travel.

Pick one nutrition product and one hydration product. Two items, taken most days, is a complete foundation for a lot of people.

Layer 2 — Goal

The goal layer is the one thing you are actually trying to support right now: focus and energy, sleep and stress, recovery, gut health, longevity, men’s or women’s health, beauty. Choose one. If you try to chase four goals at once the routine falls apart and you cannot tell what is doing anything.

Our “Shop by Goal” pages group products by this layer. The Build My Stack quiz asks the same question first for the same reason.

Layer 3 — Recovery

Recovery is the layer people skip. Sleep support, joint and mobility support, or a wind-down product in the evening rounds out the day. If your goal layer is already recovery-focused, use this slot for sleep instead.

Putting it together

Three products is the sweet spot: one foundation, one goal, one recovery. It is also where stack savings start — choose three in the Bundle Builder and the tier discount applies automatically, and any of them can be switched to Subscribe & Save so the routine restocks itself.

Start small, run it for a month, then adjust one layer at a time. If you are unsure whether a product is right for you, talk to your clinician. Anything on this marketplace that requires a clinician is routed to clinician-guided care and is never sold in the ordinary cart.
