Our Story

Your brain has
different needs.

We built Cavelo because the supplement industry had one answer for every question. We thought that was wrong.

01 · The Problem

The supplement industry
was built for confusion.

Walk into any supplement store — or scroll through any wellness brand online — and you'll find the same thing: enormous bottles, ingredient lists with 40 items you can't pronounce, doses hidden behind "proprietary blend" language, and a single product that claims to do everything.

Cognitive performance. Sleep. Energy. Stress. Presented as if the brain is a single dial you can just turn up.

It isn't.

Proprietary Blends
Most supplements hide their ingredient doses behind a single "blend" weight. You have no idea if you're getting a clinical dose or a trace amount.
Slow Absorption
Pills and capsules have to pass through your stomach, intestinal wall, and liver before a single molecule reaches your bloodstream. That's first-pass metabolism — and it wastes a significant portion of every dose.
One-Size-Fits-All
Your brain at 7am needs something completely different to your brain at 11pm. The same formula can't serve both. We designed four distinct strips for four distinct states.
02 · The Insight

The brain doesn't have
one mode. It has many.

There's the version of you that needs to sit down and do three hours of uninterrupted deep work. The version running on four hours of sleep who needs something clean to get through the morning. The version that can't stop racing thoughts at midnight. The version facing a stressful meeting who just needs to take the edge off without going foggy.

These are not the same need. And they shouldn't have the same answer.

"We built four distinct formulas because we refuse to pretend one strip can do everything."

Each Cavelo strip is built around a specific cognitive state — with ingredients chosen for that state, dosed for that state, and nothing else added for the sake of making the label look impressive.

Four needs. Four formulas.
Focus
Lion's Mane · Cordyceps · Maitake · Shiitake
Sleep
Valerian · Melatonin · Chamomile · Lavender · Hibiscus
Energy
Green Tea Caffeine · L-Theanine · Vitamin B12
Calm
L-Theanine · GABA · Vitamin B6
03 · The Format

Why we chose
the strip.

When we decided to build a cognitive wellness brand, the first question wasn't what to put in it. It was how to deliver it.

Pills and capsules have been the default for decades — not because they're the best format, but because they're the easiest to manufacture. They're slow, they're bulky, and a significant portion of every dose is destroyed before it even reaches your bloodstream.

Oral strips dissolve sublingually — on the tongue — allowing active compounds to pass directly into the bloodstream through the mucous membrane. No stomach acid. No liver processing. No waiting.

Faster onset. Cleaner delivery. No fillers, binders, or coating agents. And a tin that fits in your pocket rather than a bottle that takes up half your bag.

"We chose strips because they're genuinely better — not because they look different."

04 · Our Standard

Transparency isn't
a feature. It's the baseline.

We list every ingredient by name. Every dose. Every source. There are no proprietary blends on our label — not because regulators require it, but because we think you deserve to know exactly what you're putting in your body.

Every production batch is tested by an independent third-party laboratory. Purity, potency, and absence of contaminants — verified before a single tin ships.

We chose our ingredient sources carefully. The functional mushrooms in Focus are grown on substrate that maximises their active compound content. The L-Theanine in Calm and Energy is sourced from green tea. The B12 in Energy is methylcobalamin — the active, bioavailable form, not the cheaper cyanocobalamin found in most products.

Every decision we make is about what works — not what looks impressive on a label, not what's cheapest to source, and not what helps us claim the most benefits.

"We're not trying to replace your doctor, your therapist, or your sleep schedule.
We're just trying to give your brain a better daily tool."

Cavelo exists for the people who want to think more clearly, sleep more deeply, handle stress more gracefully, and move through their day with more intention. Not through shortcuts — through smarter, more targeted support.

What guides us

Built on
four principles.

01
Targeted, not generic
Every formula is designed for a specific cognitive state. We don't make one product that claims to do everything.
02
Transparent by design
Every ingredient, every dose, every source. Listed plainly. No blends. No marketing language hiding what's actually in the product.
03
Format matters
Oral strips aren't a gimmick — they're a genuinely superior delivery method. Faster, cleaner, more portable, and without the filler ingredients capsules require.
04
No fluff
We don't overclaim. We don't add ingredients to make the label look impressive. If it's in the formula, it's there because the evidence supports it and the dose is meaningful.
