At first glance, the world of supplements can feel like a jungle—loud labels, hyped ingredients, and promises that aren’t delivered. But every so often, a voice cuts through the noise. Not just loud but clear. Not just selling, but sharing. That’s the voice of Dr. Keith C. Ellis, the founder of Science-Driven Supplements, a brand that—true to its name—delivers honest, evidence-based formulations born from necessity, persistence, and personal experience.
Dr. Keith Ellis: Connecting Healing and Science to Promote Long COVID Recovery
As a scientist, innovator, and associate professor of medicinal chemistry, Dr. Keith Ellis is applying his extensive knowledge to a personal and professional cause: aiding individuals affected by Long Covid on their recovery journey. Dr. Ellis, who has a solid expertise and background in natural products, medicinal chemistry, and pharmacology, is committed to identifying the biological processes underlying Long Covid and creating workable, scientifically supported remedies.
He established Science-Driven Supplements in 2023 and introduced CircuGuard, a specially made herbal supplement intended to address Long Covid microclots, one of the main underlying problems of the illness. His goal is very clear: develop natural, inexpensive, and efficient supplements that are available to everyone without a prescription at the right time. Several additional targeted products are now under development and will shortly be released.
In addition to his entrepreneurial endeavors, Dr. Ellis is still an Associate Professor at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he does research on early-stage cancer therapy discovery and teaches organic and medicinal chemistry. Prominent scientific journals such as Molecular Pharmacology, Journal of Natural Products, Oncotarget, and ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters have published his academic papers.
Dr. Ellis is committed to using research to help individuals, particularly those who are still dealing with the long tail of COVID, whether in the lab, classroom, or wellness aisle.
CircuGuard: More Than Just Blood Flow
Let’s start with CircuGuard, the flagship formula born from Dr. Ellis’s deep dive into vascular biology, clotting mechanisms, and cytokine modulation.
For most people, “circulation” makes them think of cold hands and feet, or maybe heart health. But for people recovering from inflammatory conditions—Long Covid included—blood flow is everything. It means oxygen reaches your cells. It means toxins are cleared. It means your body can do the hard work of healing.
So, What’s Inside CircuGuard?
This isn’t a garden-variety circulation blend. The blend is packed with ingredients that bring something powerful to the table.
Turmeric Root Extract (with 95% Curcumin) naturally supports all-around good health in multiple ways. It helps reduce inflammation, fights off harmful free radicals, and even helps prevent blood clots by stopping certain clotting factors.
White Willow Extract (with salicin, nature’s version of aspirin) helps keep your blood flowing freely by stopping platelets from clumping together. It also eases inflammation and pain.
Dan Shen Extract supports your heart by calming overactive platelets and reducing inflammation, thanks to two powerful compounds called salvianolic acids.
Beet Root Extract, which naturally boosts nitric oxide in your body—helping more oxygen reach your muscles and tissues, which can be a game-changer if you’re feeling drained or run down. Nitric oxide also helps keep your blood nice and smooth-flowing.
Black Pepper Extract with piperine makes everything work better by helping your body absorb the turmeric and keep it active for longer.
All in all, this is a smart, natural combo designed to support your health from the inside out—simply and effectively. It’s like a spa day for your circulatory system—but molecularly targeted and research-backed.
For Dr. Ellis, CircuGuard wasn’t just a supplement. It was a lifeline. A way to regain clarity, stamina, and that lost feeling of “normal” that chronic fatigue so cruelly strips away.
The Story of CircuGuard: A Four-Part Substack Masterpiece
The development of CircuGuard didn’t happen overnight—and Dr. Ellis chronicled every stage of the journey on his Substack. In a gripping four-part series, he walks readers through the detective work that went into the formula.
From investigating natural COX inhibitors (Part 2) to dissecting which herbal extracts were absorbed in the human gut (Part 3), his posts read like a medical thriller, with ingredients like quercetin, resveratrol, and curcumin playing the role of underdog heroes.
But this wasn’t just about science for science’s sake. It was about real-world recovery, shared transparently and humbly, so others navigating the fog of post-viral syndromes could benefit, too.
Oxy Boost: Your Cellular Power-Up
If CircuGuard is the plumbing crew—making sure everything flows smoothly—then Oxy Boost is the electric grid, powering up your mitochondria so you can feel alive again. Inspired by the battle patient with Long Covid have with breathlessness and fatigue, Dr. Ellis developed Oxy Boost to target the very core of human energy: oxygen utilization and mitochondrial efficiency.
At its heart is one superstar: organic beetroot powder, nature’s nitric oxide booster. But this isn’t just any beetroot.
Thanks to its high nitrate content, the beetroot in Oxy Boost supports the body’s natural ability to widen blood vessels, enhance oxygen delivery, and reduce the oxygen cost of exercise. In simple terms? You can breathe better, move better, and recover faster.
Oxy Boost is essentially the “pre-workout” for people who aren’t gym rats but still want to climb stairs without collapsing. It’s for post-viral warriors, parents, professionals, and anyone who feels like their energy account is always overdrawn.
Designed for Real Recovery
There’s something refreshingly honest about how Science-Driven Supplements is built. These products weren’t made for Instagram. They were made for healing. For getting your life back.
Dr. Ellis didn’t choose trendy ingredients or throw in random “superfoods” to impress. He reverse-engineered the formulas from the pathophysiology of Long Covid and chronic inflammation—and used only compounds with measurable bioavailability, strong mechanistic plausibility, and a track record of clinical efficacy.
The result? Supplements that do what they say on the label.
And because Dr. Ellis shares the “why” and “how” behind every decision in his Substack articles, customers can go beyond trust—they can understand.
A Brand Built on Brains, Integrity, and Empathy
Science-Driven Supplements doesn’t try to be flashy. It doesn’t need to be. When you’re struggling with fatigue, brain fog, or unexplained inflammation, what you want isn’t hype. You want help. Clarity. Solutions.
This brand gives you that.
Dr. Ellis’s Substack is packed with in-depth breakdowns, real user stories, and transparent explanations of how the body works and how to support it. His social media presence isn’t about selfies—it’s about science. And his website? Straightforward, research-backed, and easy to navigate.
It’s a rare kind of brand these days. One that values truth over trendiness, and results over rhetoric.
Community-Driven, Recovery-Focused
What’s truly special about Science-Driven Supplements is its growing community of thinkers, doers, and survivors. From PhDs to parents, athletes to educators, customers aren’t just taking pills—they’re part of a movement toward smarter, safer self-care.
They’re learning. Healing. Sharing.
CircuGuard and Oxy Boostare just the beginning. Dr. Ellis’s long-term vision includes expanding into other recovery-focused areas—always grounded in real clinical mechanisms, not fairy dust marketing.
Because at the end of the day Science-Driven Supplements isn’t just about feeling better. It’s about understanding why you feel better. And that’s power.
Final Word: Not Your Average Supplement Story
CircuGuard and Oxy Boostmay sound like superhero names—and honestly, they kind of are. But they’re not magic bullets or miracle cures. They’re carefully designed tools in the hands of people ready to fight for their health, guided by someone who’s fought that battle himself.
Dr. Ellis didn’t just create a product. He created a blueprint. A rallying cry, a chance for people to take control of their recovery in a world that too often leaves them in the dark.
So, whether you’re navigating Long Covid, chronic fatigue, or just the daily grind of modern life, Science-Driven Supplements offers more than supplements.
