Frequently asked questions

The questions families ask us most, all in one place. If yours isn’t here, we would love to help.

About BALANCE

What is not in BALANCE?

LIVEDEN BALANCE contains no gluten, soy, dairy, or nuts, no GMOs, and no synthetic vitamins, artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, or sweeteners.

Is LIVEDEN BALANCE gluten-free?

Yes. The wheat grass and barley grass in BALANCE are young grasses, harvested before the grain forms. Gluten is found in the grain, not the grass.

Is LIVEDEN BALANCE vegan?

Yes. BALANCE is fully plant-based. Its collagen-building peptides come from pea and spirulina, not from animal collagen.

What does it taste like?

Mild and lightly sweet, with monk fruit as the only sweetener.

Do I still need my other supplements?

BALANCE is fourteen supplements in one: three billion CFU of spore-based probiotics, whole-food vitamins and minerals, super-greens and antioxidants, all nine essential amino acids, collagen building protein peptides, adaptogen and stress support, and a digestive enzyme blend. You know your body best. Most people find their cupboard gets simpler, not fuller.

How should I store BALANCE?

Our spore-based probiotics are shelf-stable, so an open bag is fine on the counter as long as you finish it within 60 days. Like all fresh, whole foods, though, it keeps its nutrients longest in the refrigerator.

Does it contain caffeine or stimulants?

No. BALANCE contains no caffeine or stimulants. The natural energy many people feel comes from the whole-food greens. It is energy in its purest form — we call it energy from the earth.

Is BALANCE third-party tested?

Yes. We test every batch three times: as the ingredients arrive, again once they are blended, and a third time through an independent lab before it reaches you.

Where is BALANCE made?

In the USA, from organic and thoughtfully sourced whole-food ingredients, in a GMP-certified facility.

Your family and your health

Can my children drink it?

Yes. BALANCE was made for families, and the taste was developed with children in mind. Servings are sized by weight: a full scoop (2 rounded Tablespoons) from 120 pounds up, half a scoop (1 rounded Tablespoon) around 60 pounds.

How young can my child start?

Every body is different, at every age. BALANCE is made from whole foods and served by weight, so the amount grows with your child. If you have any questions about your little one, your pediatrician is always a good person to ask.

What is the best way to prepare LIVEDEN BALANCE?

However your family likes it best. BALANCE mixes into almost anything: water, dairy-free milk, or blended into a smoothie. Our boys love it in high protein chocolate milk, and Grandma takes hers in coconut water with a splash of pineapple juice. Anything goes.

When is the best time to take it?

First thing in the morning. The gut is especially receptive early in the day, and making BALANCE part of your morning routine turns it into a habit that sticks.

When will I notice a difference?

Every body is different, so there is no single answer. The microbiome itself responds quickly to what you feed it. In a human study published in Nature, researchers found that a change in diet shifted the gut microbiome within a single day. What you personally notice, and how soon, depends a great deal on where you are starting from, and how in tune you are with your body.

Can I take it while pregnant or breastfeeding?

BALANCE is made from whole-food ingredients with no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, sweeteners, or synthetic ingredients. Pregnancy and nursing change what your body needs, so talk with your healthcare provider before starting anything new.

Can I take it with my medications?

Most people take BALANCE alongside what they already use. It contains a whole-food vitamin and mineral profile, and minerals like calcium and magnesium can affect how certain medications are absorbed if taken at the same time. If you take prescription medication, particularly thyroid medication, ask your provider or pharmacist whether to space them apart.

Can LIVEDEN BALANCE be used by those with MTHFR?

The folate in LIVEDEN BALANCE is 5-MTHF, the methylated form, from citrus lemon, rather than synthetic folic acid.

How does LIVEDEN BALANCE help with recovery?

BALANCE includes antioxidants from whole-food greens and fruits, adaptogens including reishi and astragalus, and complete protein with all nine essential amino acids. Together they help the body manage oxidative stress and support muscle recovery after training.

Orders and returns

How many servings are in a bag?

Thirty adult servings, about a month for one adult. Children’s servings are smaller, so a bag shared with little ones stretches further.

Do I need the LIVEDEN scoop?

No. One LIVEDEN scoop equals 2 rounded Tablespoons, so a spoon from your kitchen works just as well. A LIVEDEN scoop comes with your first order.

Can I change or pause my subscription?

Yes. Change your delivery date, pause, or cancel any time from your account.

What if I don’t like it?

We want you to love your LIVEDEN. If your first order doesn’t meet your expectations for any reason, you have sixty days to let us know, even if the bag is open. Call us at (801) 805-6500 or email hello@LIVEDEN.com, and we’ll walk you through our easy return process. No explanation needed. Unopened bags from later orders can be returned within sixty days as well.

Shipping

How long will it take to receive my order?

Most orders are processed within one business day and ship from Salt Lake City, Utah. Once the carrier has your package, estimated delivery times are:

  • U.S. Standard Shipping: 2 to 10 business days
  • U.S. Express Shipping: 1 to 3 business days
  • International Shipping: up to 10 business days, plus any time in customs

These are estimates. Around the holidays and during busy seasons, orders can take a little longer.

Why hasn’t my tracking updated yet?

After your order ships, it can take a little time for the carrier to pick up and scan your package, usually one business day in the U.S. and up to three for international orders. Until then, your tracking may show something like “Shipping Label Created,” “Pre-Transit,” “USPS Awaiting Item,” or “Awaiting Carrier Pickup.” That’s normal, and it will begin updating once the carrier scans your package.

What shipping options do you offer?
  • Standard Shipping: free on any U.S. order of 2 or more products, or $8
  • Express Shipping: $15 (not available for P.O. Boxes)

Subscriptions follow the same rule, so 2-bag and 4-bag subscriptions always ship free by standard shipping.

Do you ship outside the United States?

Yes. Along with the United States, we currently ship to Australia, Canada, Mexico, and New Zealand. Choose your country at the bottom of any page to see prices in your currency.

International shipping rates, duties, and taxes vary by destination and are calculated at checkout. Orders typically arrive within 10 business days once the carrier has them, plus any time in customs.

Should I bring my package inside right away?

Yes, please, especially in warmer months. Bringing your package indoors soon after delivery helps protect the quality of what’s inside.

What if my order is taking longer than expected?

If your order hasn’t arrived within the estimated time, email us at hello@LIVEDEN.com or call (801) 805-6500, and we’ll be happy to help. If anything arrives damaged or incorrect, we’ll replace it at no cost. Our Returns page has the details.

Still have a question?

We’re here to help. Call or email any time. If you don’t reach us right away, we’ll be back in touch soon.
