Q: Why the change in formulas?
A: We launched our new & improved formula in the fall of 2016 and no longer carry the old formula. Calm Now was a formula that had a ton of great ingredients but this created a problem. Because it had so many ingredients, we weren't able to have very high dosages of a lot of the herbs because you only have so much room in a capsule.
We took the opportunity to improve this formula by significantly increasing the dosage of the key ingredients that are going to help the most with mood and stress support. For example, herbs such as Ashwaghanda, Rhodiola Rosea and Bacopa are 3 ingredients that have been shown to have amazing stress and anxiety benefits when used at certain dosages. We significantly increased these dosages in our new formula to meet or exceed the dosages that may be the most effective.
We didn't take the decision lightly to change this formula but we ultimately knew that it was our responsibility to offer the best formula possible. This formula change actually increased our manufacturing cost by over 30% because of the increase in quality ingredients. We have chosen to not pass this additional cost on to our customers so that it can continue to be an affordable product.
I hope you give the new formula a shot. I'm confident that you will like it as much or more than the previous formula.
