Gut-Immune Defense Refill

$79.00

Our current healthcare system in the U.S. is fragmented, with specialty doctors who don’t communicate with one another and who are trained to view and treat individual parts of your body on their own, without taking a step back to see the body as an interconnected system. That’s what we’re changing at Malla. We’re democratizing access to functional practitioners who treat the whole you, not just a particular symptom.

As functional medicine practitioners, we know that if you want to build a strong and well-balanced immune system, you have to look at your gut health. Disruption in the “crosstalk” between the good bacteria in the gut and immune cells, which is caused by processed foods, chronic stress, and antibiotic use, is thought to be a leading contributor to most chronic disease. We’ve bundled our Gut Health and Immunity supplements to help you rejuvenate your immune system and take a functional medicine approach by treating your body like the intertwined system that it is.*

BENEFITS INCLUDE*:

Vegan
Gluten & major allergen free
Non-GMO
Functional medicine doctor-formulated
Third party tested
Manufactured in a GMP compliant and NSF-certified facility

Cancel or pause at any time

Why Subscription?

Because our bodies respond to patterns in nutrient intake with time, our clinical team recommends taking supplements consistently to maximize their benefits. We built in flexibility in case you need it: Skip, pause, or cancel anytime.

Sustainability Practices
For Malla, health goes far beyond the immediate consumer.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE

We recognize that not only do we have a moral obligation to do right by the planet, but by being climate conscious, we are ultimately doing right by our customers.

On your first delivery, you will receive a glass jar, held in a potato starch-based tray, and a compostable, paper refill pouch. In all subsequent deliveries, you will simply receive another compostable, paper pouch to refill your jar. This helps reduce packaging waste and minimize each shipment's carbon footprint, given the lowered packaging weight. We also let all of our customers carbon offset each of their orders at checkout. It's more convenient for you and better for the planet!

SOCIALLY SUSTAINABLE

Our mission is to democratize access to functional medicine; however, we can only drive down the cost of our products and services so far, and we recognize that those that are in most need of high quality, nutrient-dense foods, which is one of the main determinants of health and a key component of functional medicine, are the least able to afford it. So, we donate a portion of our sales to fight food insecurity in disadvantaged communities.
