Where Science Becomes Healing.

Dr. Stephen Monroe, Ph.D., is more than a pioneer in botanical science — he’s one of the few researchers in the world to conduct government-sponsored, pre-clinical cannabinoid studies under the U.S. Department of Defense. His groundbreaking research on battlefield hemorrhagic shock uncovered a modified cannabinoid compound capable of reducing life-threatening inflammation and extending the critical “golden hour” of survival from one hour to more than eight.

In the face of severe blood loss, the body’s inflammatory response can rapidly destroy vital organs — the liver, kidneys, lungs, and heart. Dr. Monroe’s cannabinoid therapy changed that outcome, protecting and preserving organ function when every minute mattered.

Building on this foundation, Dr. Monroe spent decades transforming his discoveries into innovative, CBD-infused formulations that bridge clinical precision and natural healing. His proprietary K-Channel™ Botanical Technology — the evolution of his cannabinoid pathway research fused with rediscovered naturopathic principles of tissue regeneration — enhances absorption, cellular protection, and long-term restoration.

Every Dr. Monroe product embodies this synergy of science and nature, providing results that reach beyond relief to true renewal. From wound care and inflammation control to anti-aging and cellular rejuvenation, his work represents the next generation of healing — where military-grade biotechnology meets modern wellness.

Science born on the battlefield, perfected for everyday recovery.

We envision a future where skincare is not just a routine but a celebration of natural beauty, self-care, and environmental stewardship.

Our Promise

At Dr. Monroe, we believe true wellness begins with integrity. Every formulation is crafted without harsh chemicals, artificial colors, parabens, or sulfates — only pure, proven ingredients chosen for their safety, efficacy, and harmony with nature.

Our commitment extends beyond results; it’s about responsibility — to your health, your skin, and the planet we share. Guided by the principles of purity, performance, and sustainability, we create products that honor both science and the natural world.

Dr. Monroe’s next breakthrough came with the development of MMPr™, a next-generation evolution of his proprietary K-Channel™ technology. This advanced formulation is designed to protect the body from the damaging enzymes that break down tissue, joints, and bone — the silent culprits behind chronic pain, inflammation, and premature aging.

By combining the anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving power of CBD with Dr. Monroe’s clinically proven expertise in wound healing and tissue regeneration, MMPr™ represents a new frontier in cannabinoid science. It doesn’t just soothe pain — it helps prevent the structural degeneration that pain often signals.

This unique synergy makes Dr. Monroe’s products truly one-of-a-kind: they relieve discomfort, reduce inflammation, and actively protect against the long-term damage that accompanies aging and chronic stress on the body. Because the key to lasting health is movement — and movement begins with strong joints, resilient tissue, and pain-free vitality.

CBD helps you move. MMPr™ helps you keep moving.

At Alterna, we believe in beauty with integrity. All of our products are crafted with care and commitment, ensuring that we meet the highest standards of quality and ethics.
