a quest for a compounding effect...
Ancestors didn’t begin as a business. It started with trying to fix our own lives- sleepless nights and scattered focus. So we did what people have done for centuries: we turned to the science of the past.
Reading clinical studies on plants and bioactives, we combined things. Magnesium when the body felt tight. CBD layered on top - deeper calm than either alone. Cordyceps and functional roots for clean stamina. Blue lotus, Mugwort, Mexican dream herb - suddenly dreams had texture. It felt old. Familiar.
That’s what shaped Ancestors: ancient botanicals, modern extraction with synergy as the engine. Not spiritual performance alone.
our ancestors used it. we played with it- perfected it.
After finding what worked personally, the search went deeper. Into old texts, ethnobotanical records, and the plants humans kept returning to when they needed sleep, focus, strength, or restoration. Different cultures reached for different tools, but the patterns repeated.
Mexico turned to dream leaves. Egypt to blue lotus. India to the roots. Europe to calming foliage. China and Siberia to endurance plants.
Modern science backs those instincts. Pair the right herbs and the effect multiplies. Layer botanicals with minerals and the calm runs deeper. Each Ancestors formula sits at that intersection – ancient plants, modern extraction, and combinations chosen for how they amplify one another.
powered with the world most resilient plant matter that evolved with us
We’re careful about where our plants come from. Every herb is sourced with traceable origins, from growers and extract houses that understand both the land and the chemistry of the plant.
Each batch is checked for identity, purity, and strength - from active compounds to contaminants. We choose material that holds the full character of the herb, because when a plant carries its complete profile, the whole formula works better.
Extracted and filtered in small batches. Nothing rushed. Nothing diluted. Just the plants, their chemistry, and how they work together.
the science
Each batch starts with a 1:3 extraction: one part herb to three parts solvent - a stronger ratio that lets the plant speak clearly. Purified water draws out softer compounds; glycerine or clean spirit reaches deeper, releasing oils and terpenes that carry the plant’s character.
The extracts are combined into a single liquid. Taken under the tongue, it absorbs fast and clean - direct, efficient, and already working while capsules are still breaking down.
