A simple amino acid with power.

Glycine is the smallest amino acid in the body, yet it plays outsized roles. It makes up roughly one-third of collagen, the structural protein that supports skin, joints, tendons and connective tissue. It is also a building block of glutathione, the body’s primary antioxidant, and it supports calm, restorative sleep.

Research shows that taking glycine before bed can improve sleep quality, shorten the time it takes to fall asleep, and leave people feeling more alert the next day, all without the heavy sedation of many sleep aids. It works in part by gently lowering core body temperature, helping the body settle into deeper rest.

We stock Grit Pure Glycine (450g) from Empyre for Men. 100% pure L-glycine, vegan, imported from Japan, with no fillers, flavours, binders or additives.
A foundational amino acid for recovery, resilience and rest.

A book about living flavour.

Fermentation is one of the oldest ways humans have worked with food, and at Noma it became the engine behind almost every dish. René Redzepi and David Zilber share the methods developed in the restaurant’s fermentation lab: lacto-ferments, kombuchas, vinegars, koji, misos, shoyus, garums and the slow transformation of fruits and vegetables into something deeper and more complex.

This is not a collection of trends. It is a careful, generous guide to processes that change ingredients from the inside out. Practical enough for the home kitchen, rigorous enough for those who want to go further.

A book for anyone drawn to the patient, living work of fermentation.

Why butter belongs on the table.

According to traditional wisdom recovered by Dr Weston A. price, butter is one of the most nutrient dense foods we can eat. It is rich in the fat soluble vitamins A, D, E and K2. These nutrients are essential for the proper functioning of the thyroid, adrenals and the wider endocrine system.

We stock carefully sourced, full fat butters from Dalewood Fromage, Mysthill Farm, Cream of the Crop Micro Dairy, and Montague Farm. These are producers who honour this older understanding of real nourishment.

Magnesium is involved in over 300 processes in the body. It supports energy production, muscle and nerve function, restful sleep, and the body’s ability to manage everyday stress.

It also plays an important role in hormonal health, helping regulate the stress response, supporting blood sugar balance, and contributing to the steady function of the systems that keep hormones in balance.

We stock two thoughtful options:

Biomax Magnesium Complex — a highly bioavailable liposomal formula designed for good absorption, supporting energy, muscle function, and recovery.

Natroceutics Magnesium — available in tablets and capsules, formulated for effective delivery and daily support.

A simple, foundational mineral for overall wellbeing and hormonal steadiness.

Our chicken lasagne from Sans Provisions is crafted using pasture-raised chicken sourced directly from Veldt Reared in Wolseley. Unlike conventional poultry operations, Veldt allows their chickens to roam freely on open pastures, foraging naturally for insects and native grasses.

This natural diet and active lifestyle produce meat that is exceptionally flavorful, lean, and inherently nutrient-dense. By choosing food raised this way, you support the core pillars of regenerative agriculture.

Prioritising your personal health does not need to come at the expense of the environment. Every dish in our Provisions line is prepared to offer honest, convenient nourishment that actively honors the land it came from.

Adaptogens are plants and fungi that help the body meet the demands of life with greater steadiness. They do not force or overstimulate; they simply support the system’s own capacity to adapt and recover.

Aether Apothecary offers carefully made extracts of these traditional allies. Rhodiola, the Golden Root of the northern lands; Ashwagandha, long valued in Ayurvedic practice; Cordyceps for endurance; and their Supreme Adaptogen blend, which brings several of these plants and mushrooms together in one measured dose.

They are not miracles, nor are they hurried remedies. They are enduring gifts of the natural world, offered for those who would keep their strength without excess.

Milk as it was meant to be.

Traditional cultures valued the milk of healthy, pasture-raised animals not only for its richness, but because it arrived intact with its natural enzymes still present to aid digestion. Pasteurisation, while useful for shelf life, removes many of these living enzymes.

We stock fresh milk from three farms that still honour this older understanding: A2 Dairy, Mysthill Farm, and Montague. Their cows graze on pasture, are raised without hormones or routine antibiotics, and are treated with care. The milk itself is left as close as possible to its natural state. Full-cream and minimally altered.

This is dairy that still carries the intelligence of the living food it once was.
