Failure to contact us within one week of expected delivery date may limit your options for reshipments or refunds.

- Always double-check that your shipping address is entered correctly or you will be responsible for an additional $18 address change fee that we will be charged before your package can be delivered.
** IMPORTANT INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING INFORMATION:
International shipping TO YOUR DOOR is NOT guaranteed. The estimated delivery time reflects only when the package will be delivered to your country’s border. Customs may choose to hold your package and it may take as long as 2 weeks for your package to arrive. Please check your email for your tracking # and keep close track of your package. Call your local Post Office for FedEx facility immediately if your package is held up in customs to help facilitate its clearance.
New Beginnings Nutritionals is NOT responsible for duties, taxes, storage fees or transportation fees. If your package is returned to us for ANY REASON (customs denial, refusal to pay customs fees, incorrect address, or because no one was there to accept the package) you will not be eligible for any refund.
Please verify with your Customs office whether your country permits the importation of nutritional supplements before ordering.
Hot Weather Instructions for Heat Sensitive Products
In very warm weather (temperature is above 75° Fahrenheit or 24° Celsius), to ensure the highest potency of heat sensitive products, all orders containing probiotics will be sent on ice. Because ice packs only last ONE DAY, orders containing these products should be sent the fastest way possible and we suggest ordering for multiple months. During excessive heat, probiotics will inevitably arrive warm. Although exposure to high temperatures for one or more days may slightly reduce the potency of some probiotics, they are still safe to take. Most probiotics contain at least double the amount of live cultures over what is indicated on the label to allow for transit times, etc. If this is a concern to you, we suggest choosing FedEx Overnight Priority or FedEx International Priority.
Orders that have a ground delivery time of more than 1 day need to be sent at least by 2-Day Air.
- Orders with probiotics going 2-Day Air will only ship on Monday through Thursday.
- Orders with probiotics going Overnight will only ship on Monday through Friday.
NOTE*** If the temperature is above 90 degrees please choose FedEx Overnight Priority shipping
Probiotics being sent Internationally
Orders that have a ground delivery time of more than 1 day need to be sent at least by 2-Day Air.
- Orders with probiotics going 2-Day Air will only ship on Monday through Thursday.
- Orders with probiotics going Overnight will only ship on Monday through Friday.
NOTE*** If the temperature is above 90 degrees, please choose FedEx Overnight Priority shipping.
- To avoid excessive shipping costs, consider ordering 3-4 months of probiotics to make it through the summer months.
- Have your probiotic order shipped to a business address so your probiotics are not sitting outside if you are not at home
HIGH HEAT ADVISORY – Even non-probiotic supplements can be compromised
by high heat during the hotter summer months. When heat is mid 90 degrees
or higher, we STONGLY SUGGEST you use the Fed Ex Priority Overnightservice to avoid your supplements from potentially being
compromised. If you choose to ship other by other methods, New
Beginnings cannot guarantee the condition of your supplements when they arrive
and refunds or free reships will not be available. We also reserve the
right to hold shipping to help reduce the possibility of your products being
compromised if you do not choose priority shipping.
