Know Your Body. Nourish It Wisely.
Where Alterv Began
Alterv Health was founded by Barnaby Thorn in Lewes, East Sussex. Not in a lab, and not out of a business plan. It started with a personal reckoning.
Like a lot of people, Barnaby had spent years using alcohol to manage stress, to wind down, to sleep. And like a lot of people, he discovered that it was quietly making everything worse. The sleep it seemed to help with became fragmented. The stress it numbed came back harder. And underneath it all, his gut, the system quietly running everything, was taking the hit.
When Barnaby started looking for real solutions, he found a wellness industry that was either too generic to be useful, or too complicated to be practical. So he built something better.
Alterv Health brings together advanced supplements and the tools you need to understand what your body actually needs, and give it exactly that.
The Problem We're Solving
Alcohol, chronic stress, and broken sleep don't just make you feel rough. They systematically damage the systems that regulate your mood, your cravings, your energy, and your capacity to recover. The gut is usually the first casualty and the last thing people think to fix.
Alterv Health was built around three interconnected problems that most people are quietly living with:
Alcohol recovery. Whether you're cutting back, going sober, or simply trying to undo years of damage to your gut and liver, your body needs targeted support to rebuild.
Stress. Not just the feeling, but the physiological cascade: cortisol, inflammation, depleted nutrients. Supplements that address the biology, not just the symptoms.
Sleep and gut health. The two systems that regulate almost everything else. Fix both, and the rest starts to follow.
Why Alterv Health Exists
We believe most people supplement blindly, eat reasonably well, and hope for the best. Alterv takes a different approach. We give you the tools to actually know what's going on inside your body, then point you toward the right products to do something meaningful about it.
Whether you're recovering from a period of heavy drinking, trying to manage stress without relying on alcohol, struggling with poor sleep, or dealing with gut issues that nobody seems to have a proper answer for, real progress starts with real information.
Everything we offer is chosen with one question in mind: does this genuinely help? If the answer isn't yes, it doesn't belong here.

Our Partnership with Hinnao
One of the most important things Barnaby learned while building Alterv was this: most supplements don't work well enough. A large proportion of what you swallow in a capsule never makes it into your bloodstream. It's degraded by stomach acid, lost in digestion, and excreted before it can do anything useful.
That's why we partnered with Hinnao, a UK biotech supplement brand built around one of the most significant advances in nutritional science: High-Stability Liposomal Technology.
Hinnao's proprietary process reduces active nutrients into lipid-sized particles that absorb directly through the mucous membrane under the tongue, entering the bloodstream within seconds, without passing through the digestive system at all. Independent clinical testing showed that 54% of Hinnao's Glutathione reached the bloodstream within 40 seconds, rising to 83% within 90 seconds. No capsule comes close.
The Hinnao range available through Alterv includes:
NAD+. Mitochondrial function, mental sharpness, and energy at a cellular level.
Glutathione. The body's master antioxidant. Detoxification, immune defence, and cellular repair.
Turmeric Curcumin. Anti-inflammatory support for gut health, joints, and recovery.
Vitamin D3 + K2. The essential pairing for bone health, immunity, and mood.
Resveratrol. A potent longevity compound with antioxidant and cardiovascular benefits.
Methyl B12. The most bioavailable form of B12, supporting energy, nerve function, and cognitive clarity.
NMN. A NAD+ precursor associated with cellular repair, healthy ageing, and metabolic resilience.
All Hinnao products are third-party tested and clinically verified.
