How Neeshi works

What is Neeshi?

Neeshi is an Ayurveda-inspired functional food for women's hormone health, from first period through perimenopause. There are two products: the Dark Cacao Spread, one tablespoon a day, and the Nourishing Protein Blend, one scoop a day. Both are plant-based, gluten-free, dairy-free and FSA/HSA eligible.

What is The Daily Spoonful?

Our name for the Neeshi ritual: one tablespoon of Dark Cacao Spread, every day. No pills, nothing to choke down. With a subscription it works out to $2.74 a day.

Is Neeshi a supplement?

No. Neeshi is functional nutrition, which means whole food built to do a job. You eat it, you don't swallow it. That is the whole point: a spoonful of dark cacao spread is something you'll actually keep doing, where a pill on the counter is something you forget.

How do I use it?

Spread: one tablespoon a day. Stir it into a smoothie or oatmeal, spread it on toast or fruit, or eat it straight from the jar. Protein: one scoop a day in a smoothie, oats or coffee, or shaken with water or your milk of choice.

When will I see results?

Most women feel a shift within one to three cycles. Neeshi works by giving your body raw materials it uses every day, so the effect builds rather than arriving overnight. If you are looking for something that works within an hour, this is not that.

Why four jars?

One jar is seven daily servings, so four jars cover one full 28-day cycle. Because the benefit builds over cycles, a month is the shortest stretch that gives you a fair read.

What happens if I miss a day?

Nothing dramatic. Neeshi is most effective with daily consistency, and most customers notice a difference within one to two months of regular use. After that, many settle into three or four times a week and keep feeling the support. Pick it back up when you can.

What happens if I stop?

The foundational support tapers off and you return to your previous baseline. There is no withdrawal, because it's food.

How can one product support both periods and perimenopause?

Cramps at 25 and hot flashes at 45 look different, but both are driven by hormones fluctuating faster than the body can steady them. Neeshi supplies the same raw materials your body uses at every stage: magnesium from cacao and pumpkin seeds, zinc, lignans from flaxseed, and steady fats. Those don't change with your birthday.

Is Neeshi right for me?

Can anyone eat Neeshi?

Yes. It was formulated with hormone support in mind, but it's nutrient-dense food that anyone can enjoy, including your teenager. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a health condition, check with your doctor before adding anything new.

Can I eat Neeshi if I'm on birth control or HRT?

Neeshi is made from food-based ingredients, not hormones or drugs. We can't give medical advice, so if you're on birth control, hormone replacement therapy, or any prescription, please check with your doctor.

Does Neeshi help with endometriosis?

Neeshi may be less helpful for women with endometriosis; that is what we saw among early participants. If you have endometriosis, talk with your doctor about what fits alongside your care.

I have a nut allergy. Can I eat Neeshi?

We don't recommend it. The spread contains almonds, the Cacao Peanut Butter protein contains peanuts, and our kitchen processes nuts, dairy and gluten.

Is Neeshi FDA approved?

Neeshi products are classified as functional foods. The FDA does not approve food products. We comply with FDA regulations for food safety and labelling.

What's inside

What's in the Dark Cacao Spread?

Organic cacao, regenerative almonds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, coconut sugar, vanilla extract and salt. Each spoonful has 5g plant protein and 3g fiber. No palm oil, no fillers.

What's in the Nourishing Protein Blend?

Pea and brown rice protein, chia, flax, maca, gooseberry (amla), natural flavor, stevia extract, salt and guar gum. The Cacao flavors add organic cacao, and Cacao Peanut Butter also contains peanut flour. Each scoop has 14g plant protein and 8g fiber. Flavors: Cacao, Cacao Peanut Butter and Vanilla.

Is Neeshi vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free?

Yes to all three. Neeshi is completely plant-based. Please note our kitchens also process nuts, dairy and gluten, so consider that if cross-contamination is a concern for you.

Where do your ingredients come from?

We source organic, non-GMO and ethically grown ingredients wherever possible, and our blends are made in small batches in the U.S.

How many servings are in a jar or pouch?

Seven daily servings, which is one week. A monthly order is four jars or four pouches, so 28 servings.

Why is there oil on top of my spread?

That's natural separation. We use no preservatives or stabilizers, so the oil from the nuts and seeds can rise. Stir it back in with a spoon or butter knife.

Does Neeshi need to be refrigerated? Can I travel with it?

No refrigeration needed. Store it at room temperature somewhere cool, dry and dark. It travels well, including on planes.

Will the protein make me bloated?

Each scoop has 8g of fiber. If you're not used to that much, start with half a scoop and build up over a week or two so your gut can adjust.

Ordering, FSA/HSA and the guarantee

Is Neeshi FSA/HSA eligible?

Yes, on orders of 4 jars or 4 pouches, one-time or subscription. Pay with any card at checkout, then Flex walks you through getting a Letter of Medical Necessity so you can claim the cost back from your FSA or HSA. Eligibility depends on your plan and on having a qualifying medical need. Flex determines whether you qualify, not Neeshi, and we can't give tax advice.

How does the subscription work?
