Because “clean enough” isn’t enough.
Founder, The TLC PureOrigin™ — Powered by TLC NeuroMicrobiome Labs Inc.
Dr. Eugenio Capitano is the visionary founder of TLC PureOrigin™ – Powered by TLC NeuroMicrobiome Labs Inc. With over 25 years of clinical experience as a chiropractor, acupuncturist, rehabilitation specialist, and American College of Sports Medicine–certified Exercise is Medicine® practitioner and Personal Trainer, Dr. Capitano expanded his expertise into translational health science by enrolling in the Master of Science in Psychology & Neuroscience of Mental Health program at King’s College London in 2022, graduating with Merit Distinction in 2025.
Under the supervision of Dr. Olga Kotik, PhD, his research culminated in a narrative synthesis titled “The Role of Psychobiotics as an Adjunct to Standard Treatment for Depression in Adults,” which critically examined randomized controlled trials on probiotics and synbiotics. His findings highlighted their potential to improve depressive symptoms through immune, metabolic, and neuroendocrine pathways—particularly by reducing inflammation linked to leaky gut and modulating the kynurenine pathway—while also identifying gaps in study design and demographic representation.
Now leading TLC NeuroMicrobiome Labs Inc., Dr. Capitano is dedicated to bridging the gap between neuroscience and real-world wellness by advancing microbiome-targeted therapeutics, functional nutrition, and personalized lifestyle interventions that support brain, gut, and metabolic health. His ongoing work emphasizes the microbiome’s role in promoting muscle growth, combating anabolic resistance, and redefining clean nutrition through evidence-based protein formulations that enhance overall well-being.

Not all “natural” flavors are truly natural.
Pure vanilla-bean powder keeps its integrity through simple drying and grinding. No solvents, no carriers, no microbiome disruption. It’s time to rethink what “natural” really means.

Fortified Pea Protein: A Clean, Vegan Alternative to Whey
Even plant-based sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit can alter your gut microbiome. TLC PureOrigin’s science-driven approach avoids non-nutritive sweeteners entirely—protecting the gut-brain-metabolic axis that drives real health, not just taste.

Fortified Pea Protein: A Clean, Vegan Alternative to Whey
TLC’s fortified pea protein isolate is scientifically designed to match whey protein concentrate in muscle protein synthesis (MPS). By optimizing key amino acids such as leucine and methionine, it delivers equivalent anabolic signaling and recovery support—without dairy or allergens.
