Estrogen production winds down
From perimenopause onward, the ovaries make progressively less estrogen. Receptors for it sit in the brain, bones, skin and blood vessels, which is why the change is felt in so many places at once.

The mechanics
Three shifts explain most of it
Menopause is not one event. It is a set of connected changes, and each one is well described.
The body's thermostat recalibrates
The hypothalamus holds core temperature inside a narrow comfort band. As hormonal signals shift, that band tightens, so small temperature changes can register as sudden waves of heat or chill.
Night rhythms lose their anchor
Deep sleep depends on a stable overnight body temperature and steady hormone signalling. When both are in motion, nights fragment more easily, and the days that follow feel it.
These are the normal mechanics of a normal transition. Naming them is where sensible support begins.
The formula's logic
How Daily Balance is put together
Four deliberate layers, mapped to the transition described above. Nothing in the capsule is there by accident, and nothing on the label is hidden.
The isoflavone base
Red clover at 400 mg and soy isoflavones at 30 mg supply phytoestrogens, plant compounds whose structure resembles human estrogen. They are the backbone of the formula and its two most precisely chosen doses.
The classic midlife botanicals
Black cohosh at 160 mg, sage leaf at 200 mg and chasteberry at 50 mg. Three plants with the longest record of traditional use across the menopausal years, each at its own printed amount.
The supporting botanicals
Dong quai, licorice root, blessed thistle, red raspberry leaf, wild yam and trans-resveratrol complete the eleven, combined the way traditional herbal practice has long paired them.
The open label
All eleven amounts are printed on the bottle. You can compare each one to the published literature, and your doctor or pharmacist can review exactly what you are taking. No proprietary blend, anywhere.

Before you decide
The questions we are asked most
What exactly is in each capsule?
Eleven botanicals: red clover, sage leaf, black cohosh, dong quai, licorice root, chasteberry, blessed thistle, red raspberry leaf, soy isoflavones, wild yam and trans-resveratrol. Every amount is printed on the label, per daily serving of two capsules.
How do I take it?
Two capsules once a day, with food. One bottle holds 60 capsules, a 30 day supply.
How soon will I notice anything?
We will not promise you a date. Botanicals are gradual by nature and every woman's transition runs differently. That is exactly why the return window is 90 days rather than 30: long enough for an honest trial before you judge it.
Does it contain hormones?
No. It contains botanicals. Some of them, such as red clover and soy isoflavones, supply phytoestrogens, plant compounds whose structure resembles estrogen. If you have a hormone-sensitive condition, talk with your doctor before starting.
Can I take it alongside my medication?
Check with your doctor or pharmacist first, and bring the label. Because every dose is printed, they can review precisely what you would be taking. That conversation is one of the reasons we refuse proprietary blends.
Are there allergens I should know about?
It contains soy. The complete ingredient list appears on every bottle and on this page, so you can screen it fully before ordering.
How does the guarantee actually work?
You have 90 days from delivery. If you decide against it, email us, send the bottle back even if it is empty, and we refund the order.
What does shipping cost?
US shipping is free on orders over $60, which every bundle clears. Single bottles ship at the carrier rate shown at checkout.
