What the research says
Backed by published nutritional research.†
Below is what published nutritional research says about the ingredients in this formula.
-
Organic Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera, 300 mg) supports healthy cortisol levels + reduced perceived stress†
A double-blind RCT in Medicine found that ashwagandha root extract at 300 mg twice daily significantly reduced serum cortisol levels by 27.9% + lowered perceived stress scores vs. placebo over 60 days. Ashwagandha is classified as an adaptogen, meaning it supports the body's natural ability to maintain homeostasis under physiological stress.†
-
Saffron (Crocus sativus L., 75 mg) supports healthy mood + emotional resilience under stress†
A meta-analysis of 23 RCTs in the Journal of Affective Disorders found saffron supplementation significantly improved mood scores + reduced stress reactivity vs. placebo. Saffron's active compounds safranal + crocin modulate serotonin reuptake + HPA axis activity, supporting emotional balance during periods of elevated stress.†
-
Vitamin D (as Cholecalciferol, 20 mcg/800 IU) supports healthy HPA axis function + stress resilience†
A systematic review in Nutrients found vitamin D receptors are expressed throughout the HPA axis, including the adrenal glands + hypothalamus. Low vitamin D status is associated with heightened cortisol reactivity + reduced stress resilience. Supplementation at 800–2000 IU supports healthy HPA axis signaling + adrenal hormone balance.†
-
Milk Thistle (Silybum marianum, 80% Silymarin, 100 mg) supports healthy liver function + cortisol metabolism†
Silymarin, the active flavonoid complex in milk thistle, supports hepatic detoxification pathways responsible for metabolizing excess cortisol + estrogen. A clinical study in Phytomedicine found silymarin at 100–140 mg significantly improved liver enzyme markers + antioxidant capacity, supporting the liver's role as the primary organ of stress hormone clearance.†
-
Organic Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum, 100 mg) supports healthy stress-related oxidative damage + cognitive function†
A double-blind RCT in the European Journal of Nutrition found wild blueberry supplementation significantly reduced oxidative stress biomarkers + improved working memory + cognitive performance under stress conditions. The polyphenol + anthocyanin content in blueberry extract supports brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels, which decline with chronic stress exposure.†

From Amy, Founder + CEO
Pink Stork started because I couldn't find a supplement I trusted for my own pregnancy. Every formula since has been built with our OBGYN-led medical council, third-party tested, and made with the bioavailable forms, Methylated Folate, Chelated Iron, Algae DHA, my own kids deserve. We're still independent, still woman-owned, and still run by me. I take this every day.

Why Pink Stork
What we believe, and what we won't compromise on.
We've spent a decade saying no to the shortcuts the rest of the supplement industry says yes to. Here's the standard we hold ourselves to, in plain English.
-
Bioavailable forms, every single time.
Methylfolate over folic acid. Chelated Iron over ferrous sulfate. Methylcobalamin over cyanocobalamin. We pay more so your body can actually use what's on the label.
-
Real ingredients. Real names. Real forms.
Every ingredient is named on the panel, in its bioavailable form. No anonymous 'special blends' designed to hide what's actually in the bottle.
-
Third-party tested every batch.
Independent labs verify potency, label accuracy, heavy metals, and microbes, every lot, before it ships.
-
Expert-Panel Reviewed, doctor-reviewed.
Built and reviewed by our six-person, OBGYN-led medical advisory council. Real doctors with real practices and real patients, not paid spokespeople.
-
Independent and woman-owned.
Still independent. Not owned by Unilever or Nestlé. Not for sale. Accountable to the women who take our products, not to investors waiting on an exit.
-
Built on faith, family, and a better standard for moms.
Founded a decade ago by Amy, a mom who couldn't find supplements she trusted, and built them. She still owns Pink Stork. She still runs it. And she still takes them every single day.
Real women, real results
Over a million women. Still counting.
