General FAQ

These FAQs explain the scientifically informed approach to the formulas, the selected ingredients and practical use. Each product has its own section.

This information is for general guidance only and does not replace medical advice. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or have a medical condition, please consult your doctor before use.

  • How are Elaria Dew formulas developed? — The choice of ingredients and their amounts draws on scientific findings and studies of the plant compounds and micronutrients used. We consider the type of extract, its composition, dosage and tolerability together. This creates formulas designed for different needs during menopause.
  • How do I find the product that suits me best? — Our symptom tracker helps you choose. Elaria Dew developed it with doctors and scientists. You answer questions about your symptoms and how you feel. Your answers provide individual guidance on which product or products may suit you. This helps you choose support for your needs. The tracker guides product selection and does not replace a medical diagnosis.
  • How soon might I notice a change? — Every woman experiences menopause differently. Give yourself time to make the product part of your daily routine and notice changes. Brief notes about your wellbeing can help. How quickly and clearly you feel support varies from person to person, so we cannot promise a fixed time for results.
  • Can I combine several products? — The modular concept takes different needs into account. According to Elaria Dew, the three AURORA VITAE essences can be taken together. Other combinations depend on the formulas and total daily amounts. Morning, midday or evening guidance helps you plan; it does not by itself confirm that every combination suits you. Consider supplements you already use as well.
  • When should I seek professional advice before taking a product? — If you use medication or hormone therapy, have a relevant medical condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss use with a doctor or pharmacist first. Plant compounds can also interact with medication. Food supplements complement your diet and do not replace necessary treatment. Follow the daily amount and instructions on the packaging.
  • Why do the type and amount of ingredients matter? — A plant extract cannot be assessed by its milligram amount alone. The plant parts used, the manufacturing process and the concentration of characteristic compounds also matter. Our approach therefore uses scientifically informed ingredient selection and dosage. The formulas are intended to complement a balanced diet and a mindful lifestyle.

By Essence

Specific guidance for each formula

  • Stilla Morpheus — What is the idea behind STILLA MORPHEUS? — STILLA MORPHEUS combines L-tryptophan, lemon balm, KSM-66® ashwagandha, magnesium and vitamin B6 in a formula for your evening routine. The selection draws on scientific research into links between nutrition, the nervous system, stress and sleep. This food supplement is for women who want plant compounds and micronutrients to accompany their evening rest.
  • Stilla Morpheus — Does STILLA MORPHEUS contain melatonin, and what is L-tryptophan? — The formula described contains no added melatonin. Instead, it contains L-tryptophan, an amino acid the body uses as a starting material for serotonin and then melatonin. The composition therefore draws, among other things, on the body's own metabolic pathways. Your experience of taking it is individual.
  • Stilla Morpheus — What roles do magnesium and vitamin B6 play? — Magnesium and vitamin B6 contribute to normal nervous system function. Magnesium also supports normal muscle function. They complement the plant extracts and L-tryptophan with nutrients that have recognised functions, as a deliberate part of the formula for your evening routine.
  • Stilla Morpheus — When should I take STILLA MORPHEUS? — Take STILLA MORPHEUS in the evening, about 30–60 minutes before bed, ideally 30 minutes to one hour after your last evening meal. Elaria Dew recommends not taking it directly with a protein-rich meal. Follow the daily amount on your current packaging; an extra portion when you wake during the night is not intended.
  • Stilla Morpheus — Why does STILLA MORPHEUS combine several ingredients? — Evening rest involves different physical processes. The formula therefore combines plant extracts with an amino acid and micronutrients. The scientific selection considers these different approaches. A combination can have a sound rationale without automatically proving that all ingredients enhance each other's effects.
  • Stilla Morpheus — What should I bear in mind with STILLA MORPHEUS? — If you use sleeping pills, sedatives or antidepressants, or have a thyroid, liver or autoimmune condition, seek professional advice before use. Ashwagandha can cause drowsiness; do not drive if you feel drowsy. Persistent sleep problems deserve medical attention. STILLA MORPHEUS does not replace treatment for a sleep disorder.
  • Stilla Morpheus — How can I assess whether the evening routine suits me? — Notice how you settle down in the evening and how rested you feel in the morning. A brief sleep diary helps you recognise patterns and look at changes over several days. Include your bedtimes and daytime activities to assess your wellbeing in context.
  • Stilla Morpheus — What else can I do for a calm evening? — Create a regular end to your day: dim the lights, put your phone aside and read, for example. Make time for this. You can include STILLA MORPHEUS in this routine according to the recommended use.
  • Harmoniae — Why were saffron, chamomile and B vitamins selected? — HARMONIAE combines saffron and chamomile extracts with folate and vitamin B12. The plant compounds were selected with scientific research on emotional wellbeing in mind. The two B vitamins complement this approach through their recognised contribution to normal psychological function.
  • Harmoniae — What do folate and vitamin B12 have to do with my wellbeing? — Folate and vitamin B12 contribute to normal psychological function and to reducing tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B12 also supports normal nervous system function. Alongside plant compounds, HARMONIAE therefore contains nutrients selected for functions that matter in everyday life.
  • Harmoniae — How does HARMONIAE differ from VENILIA? — HARMONIAE focuses on emotional balance, while VENILIA focuses on coping with demanding days. Their plant extracts and micronutrients differ accordingly. Choose according to your main concern; you do not need both products to begin a suitable daily routine.
  • Harmoniae — Why is a regular routine helpful? — A fixed time helps you make HARMONIAE a consistent part of your day and observe your wellbeing over a longer period. Follow the daily recommended use. The intended daily amount stays the same even on especially challenging days.
  • Harmoniae — When does taking it fit best into my day? — Morning or mid-morning, with or after a meal, is an easy way to include HARMONIAE in your day. Breakfast can provide a regular reference point, for example. Check your current packaging for the daily amount.
  • Harmoniae — How else can I support my emotional balance? — Create small, reliable moments for yourself: a break outdoors, movement or a conversation with someone you trust. HARMONIAE can complement your diet as part of this mindful approach to wellbeing. You can note what helps you on different days.
  • Harmoniae — When is it important to seek advice about HARMONIAE? — If you take antidepressants or other medication, have the combination checked first. Seek medical or psychological support for persistently very low mood or marked difficulties in daily life. HARMONIAE complements your diet and does not replace treatment for a mental health condition.
  • Venilia — What is the approach behind VENILIA? — VENILIA combines rhodiola (Rhodiola rosea) and passionflower with magnesium and vitamins B1, B2 and B6. The plant compounds were selected based on research and their use in relation to strain and inner calm. The B vitamins complement the formula with recognised contributions to the nervous system and energy metabolism.
  • Venilia — Why does VENILIA contain several B vitamins? — Vitamins B1, B2 and B6 contribute to normal energy metabolism and normal nervous system function. Vitamins B2 and B6 also contribute to reducing tiredness and fatigue. The formula therefore complements plant extracts with nutrients your body needs for everyday life.
  • Venilia — Is VENILIA intended for daytime or night-time use? — Elaria Dew recommends VENILIA in the morning, or alternatively mid-morning, with or after a meal. You can link it to breakfast, for example. STILLA MORPHEUS is intended for an evening routine. Follow the recommended use on each product's current packaging.
  • Venilia — How does VENILIA fit into demanding periods of life? — VENILIA is a daily food supplement for women who want to look after themselves consciously during demanding periods. Its formula combines plant compounds with B vitamins for the nervous system and energy metabolism. It fits best into a day that also gives meals, rest and short breaks a regular place.
  • Venilia — Why should I review my other supplements? — A coordinated selection helps you keep track and avoid unnecessary duplication. VENILIA already contains magnesium and B vitamins. Compare the daily portions of your supplements or seek advice when choosing them. This helps your supplement fit with what you already use.
  • Venilia — Can I take VENILIA in the morning and STILLA MORPHEUS in the evening? — The products belong to different daily routines: VENILIA to daytime and STILLA MORPHEUS to the evening. Whether the combination suits you also depends on their shared ingredients, especially magnesium and vitamin B6. Have the total daily amounts and, where relevant, your medication considered when choosing.
  • Venilia — When should I seek professional advice about VENILIA? — If you take medication or have an existing medical condition, check suitability first. Persistent or newly developing severe exhaustion should be assessed by a doctor. This helps identify the support you actually need instead of simply assuming a nutrient deficiency.
  • Zephyra — Why does ZEPHYRA contain black cohosh and passionflower? — Black cohosh has long been studied in relation to menopausal symptoms. Passionflower complements the plant formula, while vitamin B6 complements its nutrient content. This selection forms ZEPHYRA's scientifically informed approach for women who want plant-based support during this stage of life.
  • Zephyra — Is black cohosh a hormone? — Black cohosh is a plant extract, not added oestrogen or progesterone. ZEPHYRA combines this plant-based approach with passionflower and vitamin B6. Individual assessment still matters for hormone-dependent conditions; see the information on particular situations of use.
  • Zephyra — What does the statement about regulating hormonal activity mean? — Vitamin B6 contributes to regulating hormonal activity and to normal nervous system function. It complements the plant ingredients with a nutrient that has recognised functions. This means supporting normal bodily functions, not supplying oestrogen.
  • Zephyra — How can I include ZEPHYRA in my daily routine? — Link use in the morning or at midday to a meal, such as breakfast or lunch. A fixed reference point makes regular use easier. Follow the recommended daily amount on your current packaging. An extra portion for an individual hot flush is not intended.
  • Zephyra — At what time of day should I take ZEPHYRA? — Elaria Dew's intake leaflet recommends ZEPHYRA in the morning or at midday, with a meal. Choose one of these times that suits your day. “Morning or midday” does not mean an extra daily portion. If your packaging gives different instructions, check use with Elaria Dew.
  • Zephyra — How can I better recognise changes in my wellbeing? — Briefly note when hot flushes happen, how troublesome they feel and how your night was. This creates a personal overview rather than an assessment based on one day. These notes can also help when seeking advice about further support.
  • Zephyra — What matters during hormone therapy or after breast cancer? — Discuss ZEPHYRA with your treating doctor before use during hormone therapy. After a hormone-dependent cancer, your oncology team should explicitly assess use, as the safety of black cohosh in this situation has not been sufficiently established.
  • Zephyra — What should I consider with liver disease or longer-term use? — Professional advice is sensible if you have liver disease, take medication or plan longer-term use. Liver damage has rarely been reported in connection with black cohosh products; the cause is not always clear. Seek medical advice promptly if you notice dark urine or unusual severe tiredness.
  • Placida Aequor — What is the idea behind PLACIDA AEQUOR? — PLACIDA AEQUOR combines rhodiola and red clover with vitamins D3 and K2. The selection draws on scientific findings on plant compounds and the needs of women during menopause. Red clover, with its naturally occurring isoflavones, is a characteristic feature: a different plant-based approach from ZEPHYRA.
  • Placida Aequor — Does red clover contain phytoestrogens? — Red clover naturally contains isoflavones. These are phytoestrogens: plant compounds structurally similar to the body's own oestrogen that can interact with oestrogen receptors. The amount of isoflavones in a portion cannot be inferred from the amount of red clover extract alone.
  • Placida Aequor — When and with which meal should I take PLACIDA AEQUOR? — Take PLACIDA AEQUOR in the morning or at midday, ideally with a meal containing fat. Elaria Dew's intake guidance says this meal context supports nutrient absorption. A normal meal containing fat is suitable. Follow the recommended use on your current packaging.
  • Placida Aequor — Who might be interested in PLACIDA AEQUOR's approach? — Women who want to explore a plant-based food supplement during menopause. Whether a formula with red clover suits an individual also depends on medical history. Do not replace or change an existing hormone therapy on your own.
  • Placida Aequor — Can I use PLACIDA AEQUOR after a hormone-dependent cancer? — Please do not decide to take the product on your own in this situation. The red clover isoflavones require individual assessment by your treating oncology team. This also applies during antihormonal cancer therapy.
  • Placida Aequor — Can I use PLACIDA AEQUOR if I take blood thinners? — The vitamin K2 it contains is particularly relevant for vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin, as it can affect their action. Start use only after discussing it with your doctor. Have the whole formula checked if you take other anticoagulant medication as well.
  • Placida Aequor — How does PLACIDA AEQUOR fit into my existing nutrient intake? — Consider its vitamins D3 and K2 together with your diet and other supplements. The amounts are on the packaging. This helps you place the formula within your personal nutrient intake. It does not automatically replace medically prescribed vitamin D doses or osteoporosis treatment.
  • Placida Aequor — Can I combine PLACIDA AEQUOR with VENILIA or AURORA VITAE? — Have the combination checked using all daily portions. PLACIDA AEQUOR and VENILIA both contain rhodiola; AURORA VITAE black cumin drops also provide vitamin D and vitamin K. The amounts add up even if you take the products at different times of day.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Which three products belong to AURORA VITAE? — AURORA VITAE includes grape seed OPC with resveratrol and vitamin C, coenzyme Q10 in the ubiquinol form, and black cumin extract with vitamin D and vitamin K. The three liquid formulas have different compositions and can be consumed together or individually.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — What do OPC and resveratrol mean? — OPC stands for oligomeric proanthocyanidins, a group of plant polyphenols from grape seeds. Resveratrol is another plant compound. AURORA VITAE combines both with vitamin C, bringing selected plant compounds together with a vitamin whose contribution to normal skin function is recognised.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — How does vitamin C contribute to skin health? — Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for normal skin function. It also contributes to protecting cells from oxidative stress. The intended daily OPC portion provides 45 mg of vitamin C, a targeted nutrient contribution to daily skin care from within.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — What does ubiquinol mean in the coenzyme Q10 drops? — Ubiquinol is the reduced form of coenzyme Q10 and was specifically selected for this formula. A daily portion provides 20 mg of coenzyme Q10. The liquid form makes use simple: you can mix the drops with other AURORA VITAE products or use them individually.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — What else do the black cumin drops contain? — Alongside black cumin extract, the formula contains vitamin D and vitamin K. According to the leaflet, the daily portion provides 30 mg of black cumin extract, 5 µg of vitamin D and 15 µg of vitamin K. Consider these amounts if you already use other supplements with these vitamins. If you use vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin, discuss use with your doctor first.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — What advantages does the liquid form offer? — You can simply add your daily portion to still water or a smoothie, or take it directly into your mouth. This is particularly practical if you dislike swallowing capsules. AURORA VITAE uses the MiLiPure® formulation to deliver the ingredients; flexible use makes a daily routine easier.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Can I mix the three AURORA VITAE products? — Yes. You can add the three products together to a glass of still water or consume each individually. Shake each bottle well before use and measure each product according to its own recommended use. Stir the mixture and drink the entire portion.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Must I always take all three products at the same time? — No. The drops can be consumed together or individually. You can arrange use to suit your day. What matters is following the recommended daily amount for each product you use.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Which drinks or foods can I add the drops to? — You can add the drops to still water, juice or a smoothie. Cold foods such as yoghurt are also suitable. Elaria Dew explicitly recommends not mixing them into hot or carbonated drinks. Shake each bottle well first, mix the drops thoroughly and consume the entire measured portion.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Can I put the drops directly into my mouth or under my tongue? — Yes. You can place the recommended amount directly in your mouth or under your tongue and then swallow. Dilution is not essential. If you find the taste less pleasant when taken directly, use still water or a smoothie.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — When is the best time to take AURORA VITAE? — Take AURORA VITAE once daily in the morning or at midday, ideally with or immediately after a meal. All three essences can be taken together. You can also consume them individually if you prefer. Each product has its own recommended daily amount.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Why should I shake each bottle well before use? — Shaking mixes the contents thoroughly again before you measure a portion. Shake each bottle before every use, including when you will combine all three products in one glass. Stirring in the glass does not replace shaking the individual bottles.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Does the dosage change if I mix all three products? — No. Each product's own recommended use still applies. More water dilutes the drink but does not increase the permitted daily amount. You do not need more drops for a larger glass.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — Can I take drops in a smoothie and also directly on the same day? — Only if the total stays within the recommended daily amount of each product. All ways of taking the drops count together. A portion already in a smoothie must not accidentally be taken again as an extra daily portion directly.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — How do I prepare my combined AURORA VITAE drink? — Shake each bottle well. The leaflet lists the daily portion as 20 drops of OPC, 25 drops of coenzyme Q10 and 20 drops of black cumin. Add the portions to a glass of still water, stir and drink it. If your current packaging gives a different amount, follow its recommended use.
  • Aurora Vitae Bundle — How should I store the bottles after opening? — Close each bottle carefully after use. Follow the storage instructions and shelf life after opening on each label. Keep the original packaging so dosage, batch and shelf life can be traced.
