We created Moondays to help women live fuller lives with less pain and downtime. We understand how challenging it can be to manage daily responsibilities while not feeling your best.

Is Moondays really “candy”?

Moondays is a gummy candy, like gummy worms or peach rings, and you eat it as a snack in the 5 days leading up to your period.

It's just snack that contains essential vitamins and nutrients that are proven effective at easing menstrual symptoms like pain, bloating, and mood changes.

Is Moondays a multivitamin?

Moondays is like a multivitamin in some ways, and unlike a multivitamin in other ways.

Like a multivitamin, Moondays contains vitamins and minerals that benefit the body. However, Moondays also includes ingredients not commonly found in most multivitamins.  

Moondays is something you "eat," not a medicine or supplement that you "take." Our candy is designed as a snack that you eat in the five to seven days leading up to your period.

The premise of Moondays is that some of the symptom-driving hormonal imbalances that women experience are caused by nutrient deficiency. We can address this deficiency by "nutrient bombing" the body before menses, and by doing this month-after-month the effectiveness increases over time.

Most multivitamins are recommended to take daily because it helps with adherence, and because water-soluble vitamins need to be regularly replenished in the body. While Moondays does include water-soluble vitamins, like vitamin C, many of the ingredients are still effective when taken intermittently. As the nutrients build up in the body, the effectiveness of Moondays should increase over time.

Can I eat Moondays daily?

Moondays candy is intended to be eaten one 15-candy pack a day in the 5 days before your period begins.

If you do eat it everyday, it won’t hurt you (unless you have a preexisting sensitivity to one of the ingredients!)

Do I need to consult my doctor before taking Moondays?

Moondays does not need to be prescribed by a doctor. If you have concerns about how Moondays might interact with any medications you're taking, including other period remedies, please consult a medical professional.

What happens if I eat too much?

Moondays candy is intended to be eaten one 15-candy pack a day in the 5 days before your period begins. We recommend that you do not not exceed two snacks per day, but if you do eat more than one in a day, it shouldn’t cause any harm.

If you eat multiple packs, you may get a higher dose of some ingredients that you'd find in many multivitamins. Taking too much could lead to an upset stomach.

Is Moondays healthy?

Moondays is considered a BFY (Better for you) option. Moondays is lower in sugar and calories than typical candy, but it's still sweets. Each pack of Moondays candy is about 115 calories. Our candy is intended as a snack, a special treat to enjoy during your menstrual cycle.
