kēpos is the first human-milk equivalent superfood for your microbiome
RESTORE YOUR GUT’S INTEGRITY THROUGH THE MOST ANCESTRALLY-PRECISE, MICROBIOME-REGENERATING NUTRITION.
Our food system has created a widening nutritional void, leaving us depleted, inflated, and stagnant in our pursuit of better health.
At the center of this crisis? Our gut microbiome.
The engine of total human health — now weakened by environmental and dietary degradation. Long overlooked, your gut microbiome drives complex and deep-rooted interactions between your hormones, mood, skin, digestion, immunity, cognition, and so much more.

fuel for gut
HMOs are the only prebiotic fiber in the world that selectively feeds healthy bacteria in your gut — notably the keystone Bifidobacteria genus — which is often depleted in people with digestive disorders. Unfortunately, common industry prebiotics, such as chicory root inulin, FOS, soluble corn fiber, and others, exacerbate microbial imbalances by growing both the good and bad bacteria. But you can do better.
Decoys against pathogens
HMOs act as decoys against pathogenic bacteria by mimicking the “glycan” (sugar) receptors on your gut mucosa, or intestinal lining, on which bad bacteria feed. Particularly inhibitive towards Norovirus, Salmonella, E. coli, HMOs have enabled humans to develop crucial defenses against illnesses over thousands of years.
leaky gut repair
HMOs naturally promote the restoration of your gut’s barrier by reinforcing tight junctions between intestinal cells and stimulating mucosal regeneration. This cellular-level repair reduces permeability, effectively sealing gaps that allow toxins and pathogens to slip into the bloodstream. Unlike conventional solutions that merely target symptoms, HMOs work holistically to restore the gut’s natural integrity, setting the stage for improved overall digestive health.
motility & transit regulation
HMOs enhance gut motility by nurturing beneficial bacteria that produce key metabolites — such as acetate, propionate, and butyrate — regulating smooth muscle contractions throughout the digestive tract. This improved peristalsis ensures that food, waste, and toxins move efficiently through your gut, reducing discomforts like bloating and constipation.
immune signalling
HMOs fine-tune immune signalling by interacting directly with immune cells in the gut. They help modulate the release of cytokines — promoting anti-inflammatory signals while dampening pro-inflammatory responses — and support the maturation of regulatory T-cells.
inflammation control
HMOs bolster the intestinal barrier by upregulating tight junction proteins like occludin and claudin. This strengthened barrier helps prevent harmful endotoxins from entering the bloodstream, reducing inflammatory signaling and lowering the release of cytokines that drive whole-body inflammation.
neuroplasticity & memory
Bacterial fermentation of HMOs produces metabolites that boost the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) essential for synaptic growth. This process enhances the formation and remodeling of neural connections, leading to improved memory and learning, while also reducing neuroinflammation for better overall brain health
gut-brain axis & mood
HMOs help produce short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) serotonin precursors. These compounds help modulate pathways along the vagus nerve, which connects your gut and brain, and neurotransmitter synthesis, enhancing communication along this gut-brain axis. This improved signaling helps regulate stress responses and stabilize mood, promoting overall mental well-being.

The pledge
CUTTING-EDGE MICROBIOLOGY
WELLNESS-CENTRIC SCIENCE
FORMULATED WITH DOCTORS
EVOLVED INGREDIENTS
Our promise is to set a new standard in digestive health. Propel your microbiome to a new vision of what’s possible.
We pledge ourselves to your microbiome. We know what it’s like to cycle through endless digestive supplements, frustrated that nothing seems to work. We know you’ve spent countless hours researching your health, confused as to why it has to be so difficult. You leave the doctor’s office more confused and disillusioned than when you first entered. And we’ve been there. With kēpos, you know you’re taking what’s best for you, a nutrient that was designed to be you — and just you. Human.
- Life-changing relief. I struggled with constipation issues for a long time, but after consuming kēpos for the past three months, I’ve experienced a huge relief. My bowel movements are now regular, and I no longer feel bloated or deal with the uncomfortable symptoms I used to have.”

HMOs are bio-identical prebiotics that are (really) good for the gut because of their unique selective feeding: they grow only good bacteria, actively preventing bad bacteria from growing.
Bio-identical means it’s just like the prebiotics originally found in human milk.
hmLF is a bio-identical protein that helps you absorb and utilize iron, a vital mineral for your gut, and a powerful prebiotic.
Bio-identical means it’s just like the bioactive protein originally found in human milk.
a. Without kēpos
Pathogenic bacteria attach to your gut barrier and actually crowd out good bacteria, stealing vital nutrients away from you. Taking modern prebiotics and probiotics makes things worse, providing energy for these pathogens to thrive.
B. with kēpos
HMOs duplicate the cell receptors on your gut lining, acting as decoys to pathogens trying to penetrate your body and flushing them out, while selectively feeding only good bacteria.
hmLF then sequesters the iron source that bad bacteria need to survive, dissolving their biofilm. This allows your body to absorb vital iron.
