No melatonin, no dependency

Formulated by experts across pharmacology, dietetics, nutrition and toxicology

Multi-pathway synergistic formulation

Steadies your temperature.

Oestrogen used to regulate your body's thermostat. As it fluctuates, that stability goes with it. Pine Bark extract and Magnesium support the pathways it left behind.

Rebuilds the mood chemistry.

Serotonin and dopamine production drops when oestrogen does. Vitamin B6 gives your body what it needs to keep making them. Pine Bark extract supports the circulation that delivers them.

Turns down the background noise.

Magnesium supports the brain's primary calming system so the nervous system can stand down at night, while Pine Bark extract reduces the vascular disruptions that cause waking.

Protects bone when it matters most.

Bone density loss accelerates during perimenopause. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium. Magnesium supports bone formation. Vitamin K2 makes sure that calcium goes into your bones rather than elsewhere. Three ingredients covering the full picture.

SCIENCE, EXPLAINED.

FROM BASICS TO BIOLOGY TO RESEARCH

THE BASICS
Sleep feels restorative again.
Mood swings are stabilised.
Hot flushes and night sweats reduce in frequency and intensity.
You feel steadier in yourself every day.
Your bones are being looked after without you knowing.

It regulates body temperature.

Hot flushes and night sweats happen because the oestrogen that used to stabilise your body's temperature regulation is no longer available. Pine bark extract and Magnesium support the vascular and nervous system pathways that keep temperature steady, so overheating happens less and settles faster.

It supports mood from the inside.

When oestrogen drops, so does the production of serotonin and dopamine, the chemicals that keep you emotionally steady. Vitamin B6 supports your body's ability to make them and Pine bark extract supports the blood flow that delivers them. Steadier chemistry, steadier mood.

It creates the conditions for sleep.

Magnesium helps the brain's calming system do its job so that the nervous system can settle at night rather than stay switched on. Pine bark extract reduces the vascular disruptions behind night wakings. Neither forces sleep but both make it easier to arrive.

It protects bone when it matters most.

Bone density loss accelerates during perimenopause. Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, magnesium supports bone formation and vitamin K2 makes sure calcium goes to your bones. Three ingredients cover the full picture.

It keeps the mind clear.

Pine Bark extract supports blood flow to the brain and has been shown to support memory and focus during perimenopause. This formula also supports better sleep, which further leads to cognitive clarity.

Glycine and thermoregulation.

Glycine acts on NMDA receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus, supporting peripheral vasodilation and core body temperature reduction, the same pathway that initiates sleep onset and regulates temperature response. This mechanism is directly relevant to the hot flushes and night sweats driven by oestrogen fluctuation.

Magnesium and the stress-sleep interface.

Magnesium supports GABA-A receptor function and is depleted by both stress and hormonal fluctuation. Deficiency impairs the brain's inhibitory signalling, increasing reactivity and disrupting sleep. Supplementing restores this pathway, supporting both sleep quality and nervous system regulation.

Vitamin B6 and neurotransmitter synthesis.

Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (the active form of B6) is required as a cofactor in the conversion of tryptophan to serotonin and glutamate to GABA. Without adequate B6, the enzymatic pathways that produce calming, mood-stabilising neurotransmitters are rate-limited regardless of substrate availability.

Pine Bark extract and perimenopausal symptoms.

Pine Bark extract has been studied specifically in perimenopausal populations, with findings including improvements in mood, cognitive function and climacteric symptom scores. It supports healthy microcirculation and has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties relevant to the systemic changes of the transition.

Vitamin D and bone-neurological function.

Vitamin D supports calcium absorption in the gut and plays a role in neurological function, immune regulation and mood. Deficiency is common and becomes increasingly relevant during perimenopause as multiple systems it supports come under pressure simultaneously.

Vitamin K2 and calcium direction.

Vitamin K2 activates osteocalcin and matrix GLA protein, which are proteins responsible for directing calcium into bone and away from arterial tissue. Without sufficient K2, calcium absorbed through Vitamin D supplementation may not reach the intended destination.

INGREDIENT GLOSSARY

Tap on the ingredient to see full information

Glycine

A simple amino acid, abundant in the human body.

DIETARY SOURCES:
Collagen rich sources of food such as meat, and from legumes, soybeans and seeds.

WHAT IT DOES
Lowers core body temperature slightly, which is the exact physiological signal your brain uses to initiate deep sleep.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
You stop fighting sleep and the shift from awake to asleep feels less like a drop and more like a slide.

Magnesium Glycinate

A mineral found throughout the body, with highest concentrations in bone, muscle and soft tissue. If you want it from your plate, eat dark leafy greens, nuts, seeds and dark chocolate.

WHAT IT DOES
Shows up as a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including the ones that regulate stress response, muscle relaxation and sleep architecture.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
Muscles that don't feel like they're bracing for something, with a baseline of physical ease you didn't realize was missing.

Pine Bark extract

Extracted from the bark of the French maritime pine tree (Pinus pinaster), grown along the southwest coast of France. It has no food equivalent.

WHAT IT DOES
A potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that supports hormonal comfort, cognitive clarity and vascular health—particularly relevant during perimenopause.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
Brain fog with less grip. Days that feel more continuous and less fragmented.

Vitamin B6

A water-soluble vitamin. If you want it from your plate, eat chickpeas, salmon, chicken, bananas and potatoes.

WHAT IT DOES
Shows up as a required cofactor in the conversion of tryptophan to serotonin and serotonin to melatonin. Without sufficient B6, the whole downstream sleep pathway slows.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
More consistent mood through the day and an easier transition into sleep at night. The kind of change that registers as 'things are just working' rather than a single dramatic effect.

Vitamin D3

The form of vitamin D your skin produces when exposed to sunlight. If you want it from your plate, eat oily fish, egg yolks and fortified foods.

WHAT IT DOES
Supports immune regulation, bone health, mood and hormonal balance. Deficiency is associated with disrupted sleep, low mood and increased perimenopausal symptom severity.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
Nothing dramatic. Things just start functioning the way they should.

Vitamin K2

The MK-7 form stays active in the body for days rather than hours. If you want it from your plate, natto (a Japanese fermented soy food) is the richest source; smaller amounts are found in hard cheeses and egg yolks.

WHAT IT DOES
Activates osteocalcin, the protein that directs calcium into bone rather than into soft tissue. Particularly important when oestrogen (which normally does this job) is declining.

WHAT IT FEELS LIKE
This is long-game nutrition. Not felt acutely but seen in bone density scans and cardiovascular health over time.

Questions worth asking

My sleep was fine until recently. Why is perimenopause affecting it now? 


Because oestrogen was doing quiet work you didn't notice until it started fluctuating. It helped regulate core body temperature and stabilised the hormonal rhythm that sleep depends on. As oestrogen becomes less consistent, those systems become less stable, and sleep is often one of the first places that shows up. It's the same system, but it has less of the support it was used to having.

A regular sleep supplement addresses sleep in isolation. Steady State addresses the reason sleep is disrupted in the first place - the temperature dysregulation, the mood shifts, the nervous system sensitivity that perimenopause creates. Better sleep is one outcome, but it's a consequence of supporting the whole system rather than the goal the formula was built around.


It's worth checking the combined dose. Vitamin D toxicity is possible at very high levels, generally above 4,000 IU daily over extended periods. But it is uncommon from food and supplement sources at typical doses. Check the amount in your existing supplement against what's in Steady State and if you're uncertain, a quick conversation with your doctor will give you a clear answer.


Yes. Vitamin B6 and Pine Bark extract both specifically support mood and emotional steadiness: B6 by supporting the production of serotonin and dopamine, Pine Bark extract through its effects on cerebral circulation and its evidence base in perimenopausal populations specifically. The mood support is a core part of what Steady State is built for.

No -
this is a different kind of support, not a substitute. HRT replaces oestrogen while Steady State is entirely non-hormonal, working nutritionally to support the systems that oestrogen used to regulate. For some people, that's enough. For others, it works well alongside HRT. What it isn't is a like-for-like replacement for hormone therapy.


Yes. Steady State works at a systemic level, addressing the underlying causes of disrupted sleep during perimenopause. The other products in the range address specific moments: Quiet Nights for the evening wind-down, Sleep Repair for better sleep quality, 3AM Rescue for midnight waking. Using Steady State alongside them means the systemic support and the specific sleep support are both in place.


Partly. The feeling of losing yourself during perimenopause often has roots in the physiology: disrupted sleep compounds everything, low serotonin affects how you experience yourself, cognitive fog makes it harder to think clearly and the cumulative effect of all of it is a version of you that doesn't feel like you. Steady State works on the nutritional side of that, supporting chemistry, sleep and temperature regulation. It won't resolve everything and it won't replace the deeper work of navigating a significant life transition. But it can reduce the physiological noise so that what's left feels more manageable.
