Before Faura Foundation could take shape, we needed the right nourishing protein. One the body could absorb and use fully. Not just a source of amino acids on a label. A whole-food protein that honored the same principle behind Traditional Chinese Medicine's approach to nourishment: work with the body, not around it.
We found it in Norway.
Small farms, clean land
Our hydrolyzed poultry protein is sourced from Norway's largest agricultural cooperative, a network of small, isolated farms set among fjords, clean air and some of the most pristine farmland in the world.
The poultry is raised on clean feedstock with full traceability from farm to finished ingredient. No GMO material. No additives, colors, flavors or sweeteners. Just protein, processed with care. This matters because the quality of a protein starts long before it reaches your cup. It starts with how the animal was raised, what it was fed, and how seriously the producer takes every step of the chain.
A facility unlike any other
The protein is produced at a facility in Norway that is singular in its design: a single closed system that takes raw material to finished product in under 20 hours. Nothing sits. Nothing degrades. The entire process uses only water, natural enzymes and controlled temperature to break whole poultry protein down into small peptides ready for absorption.
This method, called enzymatic hydrolysis, mirrors how your own body breaks down protein. The difference is that the work is done before you take your first sip. What arrives in your cup is already in a form your cells can recognize and use.
The team behind this process tested over 40 enzyme combinations before arriving at the one that produces the right balance of peptide sizes, bioactivity and flavor. That level of refinement is rare.
What it contains
The result is a bioactive peptide with a complete amino acid profile. All 20 amino acids, including all nine essentials, alongside naturally occurring collagen, hyaluronic acid, chondroitin, anserine and carnosine. These compounds aren't added separately. They're inherent to the peptide itself, preserved through a process designed to retain what whole-food protein naturally contains. It's also free from every major allergen: no gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, nuts, shellfish or fish. And it tastes like what it is. Warm, savory, with a genuine umami depth and the quiet richness of slow- cooked bone broth. That flavor isn't engineered. It's simply what this ingredient is.
Why we chose it
We explored many options before choosing this one. What set it apart was the combination of nutritional density, absorption and integrity in a single, clean ingredient. A facility that wastes nothing. A process that compromises on nothing.
The peptide is the foundation of Foundation. It had to be right.
