Hormonal Balance + Metabolic Balance, two intelligent formulas working together to address the true root causes of PCOS.
Prefer to begin with one? Each bottle targets specific symptoms, ideal if you want to ease into the system or focus on your most pressing concern first.
80 Capsules · Hormonal Support
For irregular cycles, mood swings, acne, low progesterone, excess oestrogen and fertility challenges. Includes Chaste Tree, Cyperus Rotundus & Calcium D-Glucarate.
60 Capsules · Metabolic Support
For insulin resistance, stubborn weight gain, fatigue, cravings and blood sugar irregularity. Activates AMPK, sensitises insulin receptors and lowers cortisol.
💛 Best value, save R249 when you buy both
The complete system at R1,599 gives you deeper, faster results than either bottle alone.
For irregular cycles, low progesterone, mood swings, acne, and fertility challenges.
| Ingredient | Amount per Capsule | What it Does |
|---|---|---|
| Chaste Tree BerryChaste Tree Berry agnus-castus · 10:1 extract | 600 mg | Stimulates progesterone production, regulates LH/FSH ratio, improves cycle length and supports fertility. |
| Cyperus RotundusCyperus rotundus · 10:1 extract | 500 mg | Anti-oestrogenic properties; traditionally used for menstrual disorders, dysmenorrhoea and hormonal irregularities. |
| Calcium D-GlucarateProviding 43.4 mg elemental Calcium | 350 mg | Supports liver detoxification of excess oestrogens, helping reduce cancer risk, weight gain and mood disorders. |
| CurcuminCurcuma longa · 95% Curcuminoids | 250 mg | Potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant; supports insulin sensitivity and has natural antidepressant effects. |
| Piperine · NewPiper nigrum · 95% Piperine | 6 mg | Dramatically enhances bioavailability of Curcumin and Calcium D-Glucarate, meaning more gets absorbed and used. |
Hormonal Balance is formulated for women experiencing any of the following symptoms associated with hormonal imbalance or PCOS:
One of the most well-researched herbs for female hormonal health. Clinical studies show it acts on the pituitary gland to normalise the ratio of LH to FSH, which directly stimulates progesterone production. A 2013 meta-analysis confirmed its efficacy for cycle irregularity and PMS across multiple randomised controlled trials.
CDG inhibits the enzyme beta-glucuronidase, which is responsible for reactivating excreted oestrogens in the gut. By blocking this pathway, CDG ensures oestrogens are properly eliminated, reducing oestrogen dominance, which underlies many PCOS and hormonal imbalance symptoms.
Used for centuries in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese medicine for reproductive health. Modern research has confirmed anti-oestrogenic and anti-inflammatory activity, with particular relevance to dysmenorrhoea and polycystic ovarian pathology.
Added exclusively in the 2026 formula, Piperine (95% standardised extract from black pepper) has been clinically shown to increase absorption of Curcumin by up to 2000%. It also enhances uptake of Calcium D-Glucarate, ensuring the full therapeutic dose reaches your cells.
For insulin resistance, stubborn weight, fatigue, cravings and blood sugar irregularity.
| Ingredient | Amount per Capsule | What it Does |
|---|---|---|
| GynostemmaCucurbitaceae Pentaphyllum · 10:1 extract | 1,450 mg | Activates AMPK (the body's master metabolic switch), reduces insulin resistance, lowers blood sugar and decreases fat mass. |
| Myo-InositolB-group vitamin · Ovarian support | 550 mg | Improves insulin signal transduction in ovarian cells, supports egg quality, reduces androgens and restores ovulation. |
| D-Chiro-InositolWorks synergistically with Myo-Inositol | 18 mg | At a potent 30:1 ratio with Myo-Inositol, stronger than the standard 40:1, this level of D-Chiro-Inositol more effectively addresses androgen excess and insulin resistance in women with PCOS. |
| Chromium PolynicotinateProviding 100 µg elemental Chromium | 830 µg | Potentiates insulin receptor activity, promotes insulin signalling, reduces negative regulators and enhances AMPK activation. |
Metabolic Balance is formulated for women experiencing any of the following symptoms associated with insulin resistance, metabolic dysfunction or PCOS:
While the commonly cited physiological ratio is 40:1, Dr. Cooper's clinical experience led him to formulate Metabolic Balance at a stronger 30:1 ratio, 550mg Myo-Inositol to 18mg D-Chiro-Inositol. This more potent ratio reflects his belief that women with PCOS require greater D-Chiro-Inositol activity to adequately address androgen excess and insulin resistance. Multiple randomised controlled trials confirm this combination significantly improves insulin sensitivity, restores ovulation, reduces testosterone and improves egg quality, often comparable to Metformin but without the side effects.
AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) is often called the body's "master metabolic switch." Gynostemma has been shown in multiple studies to activate AMPK in skeletal muscle and liver tissue, the same mechanism as Metformin, which improves glucose uptake, reduces fat storage and lowers circulating insulin levels. Gynostemma is also a powerful adaptogen, helping the body manage stress and balance cortisol, much like Ashwagandha. Critically, unlike Ashwagandha, it does not raise testosterone levels, making it far safer and more appropriate for women with PCOS where elevated androgens are already a central concern.
Chromium Polynicotinate enhances the function of insulin receptors by increasing their binding affinity. It also activates key proteins in the insulin signalling pathway and suppresses negative regulators of insulin action. At 830 µg (286% NRV), the new formula delivers a significantly therapeutic dose.
Hormonal Balance + Metabolic Balance, the complete two-formula system for PCOS.
PCOS is a complex condition with two interconnected root causes: hormonal imbalance and metabolic dysfunction. Treating only one pathway leaves the other unchecked. The PCOS Support bundle addresses both simultaneously: Metabolic Balance targets insulin resistance, androgen excess and blood sugar regulation, while Hormonal Balance targets oestrogen dominance, cycle irregularity and progesterone deficiency.
One bottle of Hormonal Balance (80 capsules) and one bottle of Metabolic Balance (60 capsules), both the improved 2026 formula with stronger extracts and enhanced bioavailability.
The PCOS Support bundle is ideal for women who want to address both root causes of PCOS at the same time, hormonal imbalance and metabolic dysfunction. It is particularly suited to women experiencing:
PCOS is not a single condition. It is a cluster of metabolic and hormonal dysfunctions that reinforce each other. Elevated insulin drives androgen production. Excess androgens disrupt ovulation. Poor oestrogen clearance worsens cycle irregularity. Addressing only one pathway while leaving the other unchecked limits how far recovery can go. The bundle targets both simultaneously.
Chaste Tree Berry normalises the LH to FSH ratio and stimulates progesterone production. Calcium D-Glucarate clears excess oestrogens via liver detoxification. Cyperus Rotundus provides anti-oestrogenic and anti-inflammatory support. Curcumin reduces systemic inflammation, which is elevated in most PCOS presentations. Piperine (new in 2026) dramatically enhances absorption of all fat-soluble ingredients.
Gynostemma pentaphyllum activates AMPK, the same cellular pathway targeted by Metformin, improving insulin sensitivity without pharmaceutical side effects. Myo-Inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol at Dr. Cooper's proprietary 30:1 ratio address androgen excess and ovarian function. Chromium Picolinate further supports healthy blood sugar regulation.
To our knowledge, Life Source is one of the only supplement brands to have designed a PCOS protocol around the reality of a woman's hormonal rhythm. Hormonal Balance is taken only after your period ends, working in harmony with your follicular and luteal phases. Metabolic Balance runs continuously as your daily foundation. This is not a coincidence of dosing. It is intentional clinical design.
The two supplements have different dosing protocols. Here's how to take both together:
