RICH

For the meal that was too much.

The brief

Two capsules with a heavy meal. Regularity is one job and the microbiome is another; RICH is the third — breaking down the meal in front of you, specifically the fat in it. Artichoke leaf at 500 mg with ox bile at 125 mg standardised to 40% cholic acid, DigeZyme enzymes and slippery elm. Nothing else on this shelf does this job.

Why

Dinner shouldn't cancel what comes after dinner. Bile is not a wellness word — it is how fat gets broken down, ox bile is exactly what it sounds like, and it is mostly used by people who struggle with fatty food, often after gallbladder surgery. If that is not you, this is probably not your product. Two things before you buy: with gallstones or any bile-duct problem, do not take this without a doctor; and it is animal-derived twice over — bovine bile in a gelatin capsule — neither vegetarian nor vegan.

What it actually does

A two-capsule blend of artichoke, ox bile and enzymes for meal and fat digestion — a different job from regularity or microbiome.

How to use it

Daily

Two capsules with a heavy or fatty meal, not on an empty stomach. This is a with-food product taken when needed, not a daily habit for most people.

A man in a grey tank top sitting on the edge of a bed, city skyline through the window behind him.

A man in a navy tank top walking a city street in daylight, streetcar passing behind him.

A man in a grey tank top standing in a doorway, talking to someone out of frame.

A man in a white tank top on a wet street at night, bar lights behind him.

The long version

Order the thing. The cacio e pepe, the ribeye, the burrata that arrives looking like a dare — order it, because eating like a monk on a date is its own red flag.

RICH just comes along: two capsules with the heavy meal — artichoke leaf at 500 mg, ox bile at 125 mg standardised to 40% cholic acid, enzymes and slippery elm. Bile is how fat gets broken down; ox bile is exactly what it sounds like, and pretending otherwise would be beneath both of us.

Who it's actually for: men who struggle with fatty food — often after gallbladder surgery — for whom this is the single most useful thing in the system. If that's not you, one of the other three gut products almost certainly fits better, and we'd rather point you there.

With food, when needed — not a daily habit. Gallstones or any bile-duct problem: doctor first, no exceptions. Bovine-derived, gelatin capsule, not vegetarian.

Dinner shouldn't cancel what comes after dinner.

Q&A

When do I take it?

With the meal that needs it — the heavy, fatty one — and never on an empty stomach. It's an as-needed product; most people won't want it daily.

Is it vegetarian?

No — ox bile is bovine-derived and the capsule is gelatin. This one is honest about being an animal product.

Can I take ox bile if I still have my gallbladder?

Generally it's used both by people with and without one — but gallstones or any active gallbladder condition make this a doctor conversation before a checkout. It's fatty-meal support, not a treatment for anything.

How do I know I even need it?

The tell is how you feel after heavy, rich or restaurant-fatty meals. If ordinary dinners sit fine, you likely don't — it's the occasional with-food tool, and we'd rather you skip it than habit it.

Where is it made?

In the USA — the manufacturer's country of record for this product. (No supplement anywhere is 'FDA-approved'; the oversight lives at the facility level, and that's where this one is made.)

Safety and warnings

Not for anyone under 18, pregnant or nursing. DO NOT USE if you have gallstones, a blocked bile duct, or any bile or liver condition — speak to a doctor first. Ox bile is bovine-derived and the capsule is gelatin, so this is not vegetarian or vegan. Loose stools are the common effect of too much; reduce the dose. Speak to a doctor before use if you take any prescription medication, as bile salts can change how some drugs are absorbed.
