FAQ

DailyBasis is designed to provide nutritional support tailored specifically to the hormonal fluctuations of people who menstruate, and the common deficiencies associated with these monthly hormonal changes. DailyBasis may be beneficial for people who do not menstruate, as we use high-quality purposeful ingredients known to support the whole body. We recommend everyone assess their own health and consult a doctor if they have questions prior to taking a dietary supplement.

DailyBasis is for anyone with a regular or irregular menstrual cycle, people on hormonal and non hormonal birth control, and those looking to regulate or regain their monthly menstrual cycle. If you are unsure if DailyBasis is right for you, consult a doctor or health professional for additional guidance. Please also reach out directly using our contact page, as we are more than happy to provide additional information. 

Is DailyBasis right for me?

DailyBasis is designed to help support your body’s natural processes and is not intended to be a cure-all or quick fix. We recommend taking DailyBasis for at least three months in order to notice results. Depending on the person, the effects felt will be different. Common results may be: reduced levels of inflammation, an increase in red blood cells which may promote higher energy levels, improved gut health, enhanced brain function, improved mood stability, balanced blood sugar levels and reduced cravings, and a reduction in common symptoms associated with menstruation such as cramping, bloating, and headaches. In addition to these noticeable results, DailyBasis, in combination with diet and lifestyle support, can help regulate monthly cycles, promote healthy fertility, and address imbalances that contribute to long-term conditions like PCOS and PMDD. For those curious about the deeper physiological effects that may not be highly visible, we recommend consulting a health practitioner to get standard bloodwork done before taking DailyBasis, and after three months of product-use testing again to see how your body is improving internally.

We advise that people review any current supplements they are taking as well as the ingredients in DailyBasis to determine whether they should be using them simultaneously. In some cases, DailyBasis can serve as your comprehensive supplement, eliminating the need for multiple daily supplements. If you are unsure, we recommend consulting a healthcare professional.

If your cycle is regular but is longer or shorter than 30 days, we recommend taking DailyBasis per the usage instructions (Start DB1 on the first day of your period and take it for the following 15 days. On the 16th day, switch to taking DB2, and continue taking for the next 15 days. Then switch back to DB1 and repeat the cycle).

The ingredients in DailyBasis have been shown to help regulate the menstrual cycle. If you are managing an irregular cycle, start DB1 on the first day of your next bleed and switch to DB2 15 days later and continue following the standard usage instructions. If you are working to regain menstruation, pick any day to start DB1 and then follow normal instructions. The nutrients from DB1 & DB2 can help support the body in regaining natural hormonal balance. Along with other lifestyle practices, like proper rest, a well-balanced diet, and exercise, you should start to see an improvement in your cycle regularity.

It’s no problem if you miss a few days. We recommend daily use for best results, but missing a day here and there won’t take you off track. Feel free to add a little extra to the next few days, or just pick up where you left off. 

DailyBasis is designed to provide nutritional support for people who menstruate, and the common deficiencies associated with these monthly hormonal fluctuations. We do not have research to show that DailyBasis is or is not effective or recommended for people who are actively trying to conceive, are currently pregnant, or who are postpartum. We recommend talking with your doctor about the best individual supplemental regime for those trying to conceive, or are pregnant or postpartum. 

DailyBasis is designed with ingredients that may be helpful for anybody. However, DailyBasis is specifically designed to provide nutritional support for those experiencing the hormonal fluctuations of a monthly menstrual cycle and the common deficiencies associated with these monthly hormonal fluctuations. We do not have research to show that DailyBasis is or is not effective for people who are in perimenopause, menopause, or are post menopausal. We recommend consulting a healthcare provider if you are trying to determine if DailyBasis is right for you. DailyBasis is considered “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) by the FDA.

Yes. As practiced by many integrative, naturopathic, and functional medicine practitioners, many of the functional ingredients in DailyBasis are prescribed for those struggling with irregular periods, PMS, PCOS, PMDD, and more. DB1 and DB2 provide support for many of the root causes of hormonal imbalances that when sustained over a period of time have been linked to the development of these syndromes and diseases. DailyBasis is considered “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS) by the FDA.

Take one serving daily with a beverage of choice - stir or shake well. Since having a full 8oz glass of water first thing in the morning is recommended, we think mixing into a glass of water in the morning is a great way to start your day off right. We also recommend eating at least a small amount of food before or with DailyBasis. Since there are ingredients in DB1 and DB2 like iron, that can cause side effects like nausea if taken on an empty stomach, this is an easy and healthy way to avoid that. Additionally, research suggests that consuming a small amount of protein first thing in the morning can support blood sugar regulation, satiety, cravings, and heart health in women.

DailyBasis is organized in two parts, designed to support the two major hormonal fluctuations that women experience during the month. Take one serving of DB1 starting on the first day of your period (first day of bleeding). Continue taking DB1 for 15 days. On day 16 (around the time of ovulation), switch to taking one serving of DB2 daily. Continue taking DB2 for 15 days, and then switch back to DB1 to repeat the cycle on the first day of your next period.

We recommend eating something small right before or after taking DailyBasis. Since DB1 and DB2 contain ingredients like iron that for some people can cause side effects like nausea if taken on an empty stomach, eating something small is an easy and healthy way to avoid those side effects. Research suggests that consuming a small amount of protein first thing in the morning can support blood sugar regulation, satiety, cravings, and heart health in women. Every person is different, and some may not need to eat food with DailyBasis, so do what works for you! However, we suggest not taking DailyBasis after a large meal since doing so can inhibit the absorption of the vitamins and minerals. 

Some ideas on what type of food to eat with DailyBasis could be the following: One or two eggs, a smoothie with high-quality protein powder or nuts, a handful of nuts, a small piece of fruit and nuts, half of an avocado, a serving of Greek yogurt, or anything that works for you.

1. If you have a regular monthly cycle, start DB1 on the first day of your bleed (the first day of your period), and switch to taking DB2 on day 16.
2. If you have an irregular cycle, start DB1 on the first day of your next bleed, and switch to DB2 on day 16. If your next bleed is unpredictable or possibly months away, pick any day to start DB1, and switch to DB2 16 days later. The ingredients in DailyBasis have been shown to help support cycle regularity.
3. If you don’t get a monthly period and you are trying to regain regular menstruation, pick any day to start DB1, and switch to DB2 16 days later. Taking DailyBasis can provide some of the helpful nutrients that your body needs to regulate your cycle.
4. If you take oral birth control pills, start taking DB1 on the first day of your bleed (of the first day of your placebo sugar pill), and switch to DB2 16 days later.

We recommend sticking to the recommended daily serving (2 scoops). If you have missed any number of days, pick up where you left off with the regular daily serving. DailyBasis is portioned to provide the optimal amount of daily nutrients so taking more than the daily allowance is not necessary.

Even if you don’t feel a noticeable difference, it is likely that your body is still benefiting from the power of the active ingredients in the product. Not all improvements can be felt, but we do believe that with time, everyone should be able to see a reduction in negative symptoms they may typically experience, as well as improvements in some of the following: reduced inflammation, improved digestion, and increased energy levels. If you are curious about the internal effects of DailyBasis, we recommend getting a baseline and follow-up bloodwork panel done with your healthcare provider. 

You can store DailyBasis on the counter or in the cabinet, although storing in the refrigerator can help maximize freshness. 

DailyBasis has the essence of natural orange and ginger. It is lightly flavored with natural flavors so it is palatable to take as a daily beverage. We think the orange goes great in smoothies!

The ingredients in DB1 and DB2 are intentionally designed to vary based on the fluctuating needs throughout the cycle. Because of this, the flavor should have some natural differences. For example, DB2 contains ginger root and DB1 does not. We use ginger root for its benefits in reducing insulin resistance, which tends to be higher during phase two (the luteal phase) of the cycle.
