Frequently Asked Questions
Prescriptions or referrals are not required to place orders on our website except when ordering Sonic Cholesterol, which requires a physician authorization so we can ensure that this supplement is being taken responsibly. Our entire product line are dietary supplements and available to the general public. You can browse our full catalog, add items to your cart, and check out directly at nbnus.net — and except for Sonic Cholesterol, no doctor's note is needed.
That said, many of our customers work closely with a healthcare practitioner who helps guide their supplement protocol — particularly families supporting children with autism, ADHD, or other neurodevelopmental differences. If you're new to integrative supplementation, we always recommend consulting with a knowledgeable practitioner to help tailor a program to your specific needs.
Note: If your doctor is already working with NBN through our Practitioner Portal, they may send you a direct product recommendation link through our NBN-Script referral program.
Choosing the right supplements depends on your individual health goals, sensitivities, and any guidance you've received from a healthcare provider. Here are a few ways to get started:
- Browse by category or benefit — our catalog is organized into categories such as Amino Acids, Vitamins, Minerals, Probiotics, Immune & Inflammation Support,
Detoxification Support, and more. - Use our product packages — we've assembled curated protocol packages (such as our Mycotoxin Treatment Packages and others) designed around specific health goals. These are especially helpful for families following a practitioner-guided protocol.
- Consult a practitioner — if you are working with an integrative health physician, naturopath, or functional medicine practitioner, ask them about our Practitioner Portal, which gives healthcare providers access to clinical resources, treatment protocols, and our webinar library.
- Contact our team — our customer service team has deep product knowledge and is happy to help point you in the right direction. Reach us at 913-754-0458 or [email protected].
We are not able to provide medical advice or diagnose conditions. Always work with a qualified healthcare professional for personalized guidance.
Many of our products are formulated specifically with children in mind, including families supporting kids with autism, ADHD, sensory processing differences, and other developmental needs. We carry a dedicated range of child-friendly formats including chewables, liquids, and powders that are easier for kids to take and offer dosing suggestions by age and weight. Many capsules can also be opened up and mixed into cool food or drink.
Examples of child-friendly forms in our catalog include:
- Chewable options (Chewable C, A&I Formula Chewables, TriEnza Chewables, Chewable Ther-Biotic Kids)
- Liquid supplements (Micellized Vitamin A, Liquid Vitamin D3 Plus K2, Liquid Calm, Liquid Lithium, Liquid Zinc)
- Taste-free powders (Spectrum-Mate, Enhansa)
Dosing for children should always be adjusted based on age and weight and ideally guided by a healthcare practitioner. Products that are not intended for children will note this on their label or product page.
Always consult your child's healthcare provider before starting a new supplement regimen.
New Beginnings Nutritionals has been serving the integrative health community — and in particular, families of children with autism and neurodevelopmental differences — for over two decades. Our formulations reflect that deep, specialized experience. A few things that set us apart:
- Practitioner-grade quality — our products are formulated to the standards expected by integrative physicians, naturopaths, and functional medicine practitioners who recommend them to their patients.
- Bioavailability-first formulations — we prioritize forms of nutrients that the body can actually absorb and use, such as methylated B vitamins (methylcobalamin, methylfolate), micellized fat-soluble vitamins, and chelated minerals.
- Specialized for sensitive individuals — many of our products are designed with highly sensitive individuals in mind, including those with methylation challenges, food sensitivities, or complex supplement protocols.
- Child-friendly options and dosing — a meaningful portion of our line is designed for children with special needs who often need optimal levels of important nutrients. We offer liquid, powder and chewable options as well as a helpful article called “Getting Children to Take Supplements. (can this have a link?) We offer child specific dosing for most of our product line, based on research and safety studies.
- Personalized Customer Support — we provide one on one support to our customers (whether practitioner or patient) who contacts us by phone or email. Our experienced team is available to guide you and answer any questions that you may have. Ongoing education — we support our customers and practitioner partners with educational webinars, informative monthly emails, treatment protocols, and a dedicated Practitioner Portal with clinical resources.
Yes. In addition to our own New Beginnings Nutritionals branded line, we carefully select only the best products from other trusted brands in the integrative health space. Our goal is to be a one-stop shop for the supplements most commonly used in integrative and functional medicine protocols, so you don't have to source from multiple vendors.
All third-party products we carry are vetted for quality and efficacy, and are consistent with the standards we hold for our own line. If you're looking for a specific brand or product and aren't sure if we carry it, contact us and we'll let you know.
New Beginnings has always been committed to carrying supplements that are free of most common allergens, however allergen content can vary by product. We understand that many of our customers — particularly children with sensitivities — need to avoid specific ingredients. Here's our general guidance:
- Always check the label — each product page includes a full ingredient list and a “does not contain” section under “Suggested Use” that will note any common allergens present.
- Most of our products are free of gluten, dairy, soy, and artificial additives — but this may vary with a small number of our products, so please verify for each product you're considering.
- If you have a severe allergy, contact us directly before ordering so we can help you confirm the suitability of a product for your needs.
In general, yes — many of our customers follow multi-supplement protocols that combine several of our products. Many of our packages are specifically designed as coordinated protocols meant to be taken together.
That said, we always recommend working with a qualified healthcare practitioner when combining multiple supplements, especially for children or individuals on medications. A practitioner familiar with integrative protocols can help sequence products appropriately, manage dosing, and watch for any interactions.
Here are some simple rules to follow:
- Take probiotics 2 hours apart from antimicrobial herbs.
- Do not take Omega-3’s with calcium because the can form insoluble “soaps”
- Separate high potency minerals such as calcium and zinc to ensure optimal absorption of each
If you have a specific combination in mind and aren't sure about compatibility, feel free to reach out to our team — we're happy to help where we can.
Shelf life varies by product and format. Each product has an expiration date printed on the label, which is the best reference for that specific item. Most products should have a remaining expiration date of at least 6 months at purchase.
Please note: Supplements do not become dangerous or ineffective once the expiration date has been reached if they’ve been stored properly. Most supplements are still effective and safe near or past expiration date (up until 6 months). These supplements are often available to you at a discount in our SALE category.
As a general guide:
- Capsules and tablets — typically 2 years from manufacture date when stored properly.
- Liquids and liquid supplements — generally 1–2 years unopened; shorter once opened. Refrigeration is required for many liquid products after opening.
- Powders — typically 1–2 years; store in a cool, dry place away from moisture.
- Probiotics — can have a shorter shelf life than most supplements and some
may require refrigeration. Probiotics cannot be returned for any reason due to the temperature-sensitive nature of these products.
For best results, store all supplements in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not store supplements in a bathroom medicine cabinet where heat and humidity are elevated.
