How Brainy Mag may help hormones

Estrogen Balance - Supports Phase II of Complete Estrogen Detoxification by eliminating "dirty" estrogens
Thyroid Function - Helps convert the less active T4 thyroid hormone to the bio-active T3
Adrenaline & Cortisol - Helps reduce over-reactivity in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis; supports a calm, less stressed state
Blood Sugar - Helps stabilize blood sugars, leading to fewer cravings and easier maintenance of a healthy weight
Testosterone & Progesterone - Plays a role in the pivotal processes that allow the body to produce sex hormones
DHEA & HGH - Supports better sleep, allowing the body to efficiently produce these anabolic hormones and repair cellular damage
Serotonin Levels - Helps convert tryptophan (an amino acid) into the important mood-boosting hormone serotonin

Brainy Mag may support overall health:

Memory and focus
Sleep
GABA
Headaches and migraines
Digestion
Energy

DID YOU KNOW?

Magnesium L-Threonate is the only form of magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier.

What makes Magnesium L-Threonate unique?

A Unique Form: Derived from combining magnesium and threonic acid. Threonic acid is a vitamin C metabolite that helps facilitate the transport of magnesium into the brain.
Enhanced Brain Absorption: Unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier compared to other forms of magnesium.
Cognitive Benefits: Research suggests that magnesium threonate may have positive effects on cognitive function and memory.
Potential Neuroprotective Effects: Magnesium threonate has also shown potential neuroprotective effects by protecting neurons against oxidative stress and inflammation.
Sleep Support: Magnesium threonate may also contribute to improving sleep quality and reducing insomnia symptoms, including going to sleep faster.

You may benefit from Brainy Mag if you experience:

Brain fog or forgetfulness
Lack of focus
Painful periods and PMS
Painful breasts, benign lumps
Hot flashes
Poor sleep, insomnia, waking
Muscle pain and tension
Craving chocolate
Chronic constipation
Poor detoxification ability
Irregular heart beat
Headaches and migraines
Depression
Anxiety
Quick exhaustion during exercise

DO YOU SHIP TO CANADA, THE UK, AUSTRALIA OR OTHER COUNTRIES?

Unfortunately, at this point we only ship to the United States. This is due to the ever-evolving international laws surrounding supplements.

There are forwarding companies like MyUS.com, that will forward orders to you in your country for a fee.

In this case, it is the customer's responsibility to find out in advance if the supplement in question is legal in their country. For example, Progesterone and DHEA are not legal to ship into Canada (Canada classifies bio-identical hormones as drugs so they can only be prescribed by a doctor or naturopath).

We have had customers successfully ship their supplements abroad using MyUS.com, however we have only limited experience with this service.

WHY DOES SHIPPING COST $11.45?

For small businesses like ours, the shipping fee covers the very real costs of getting your order to you: shipping, handling, packaging, warehousing, insurances, and fairly compensating all the people involved along the way. We do our best to keep this shipping cost as low as possible, and offer FREE shipping for orders $97 and above.

WHY DOES MY SUBSCRIPTION ORDER INCLUDE $11.45 SHIPPING?

If you set up a subscription order and notice that you are being charged shipping, it could be due to one of these reasons:

1. Your order value is under $97

2. Your initial order qualifies for free shipping, but the order frequency on your subscriptions is different ( 1 product is set to ship every month, the other is set to ship every 2 months).

*The system automatically splits this kind of order into 2 separate shipments.

In this case it is more economical to set up one subscription every 2 months, and to increase your quantity to 2 units of the supplement that you consume monthly.

For example: 2 Vitamin B6 + 1 Essential Omegas every 2 months = free shipping.

Please email us at support@hormonesbalance.com if you would like some help managing your subscriptions.
