Heat Sensitive Shipping Policy
Designs for Health has certain items that are sensitive to higher temperatures and higher humidity levels, and therefore may require shipping in a cool environment depending on your location and time of year. For example, we recommend that probiotics ship year-round with a cooler bag and cold packs. Cold packs may melt during shipping which should not affect product integrity, as they take a long time to melt, and because probiotics are manufactured with overages that ensure label potency when exposed to higher temperatures.
It is also recommended that PaleoBars? and all softgel products ship with a cooler bag and cold packs if the temperatures are expected to exceed 80?F for a prolonged period of time during transit. These items are subject to special shipping procedures due to their sensitive nature. In order to maintain this policy, our customer service department monitors the weather and transit time daily.
We endeavor to deliver all orders, including heat-sensitive items, within one to three business days. Expedited and guaranteed shipping services are available at an additional cost. Depending on the day of order and ship-to address, we may not be able to ship heat-sensitive orders until the following Monday to avoid orders held in transit over the weekend. For orders that combine heat-sensitive and non-heat-sensitive items, customers may elect to have their order ship in its entirety on Monday, or choose to split their order and have only their heat-sensitive products ship on Monday. If the customer elects to split their order, Designs for Health?s regular shipping policies will apply to each shipment?s value.
At our discretion, Designs for Health will add a cooler bag (s) to your order to ensure product potency and integrity.

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) emerges as a crucial nutrient essential for optimal health, serving as the fundamental building block for cell membranes throughout the body. The absence of PC accelerates cellular aging, impacting overall cell function and compromising various facets of our well-being. A deficiency can contribute to poor liver function, fatty liver, gallstone formation, premenstrual syndrome, fibroid tumors, fibrocystic breast disease, and other hormonal disorders in women, poor memory, and nerve degeneration.
While nuts, seeds, dandelion greens, and egg yolks contain phosphatidylcholine, these foods are often underrepresented in our diets, resulting in insufficient intake. Research underscores the bioavailability of supplemental phosphatidylcholine, derived from lecithin, with nearly 90% absorption by the body. This easily digestible form allows pancreatic enzymes to break down phosphatidylcholine into free fatty acids, facilitating efficient absorption by intestinal cells—a convenient method to boost PC levels.
Recognized as the pinnacle liver nutrient, phosphatidylcholine plays a pivotal role in promoting liver health by aiding nutrient assimilation, hormone balance, and toxin elimination. It serves as a guardian for the liver, defending against toxins from sources such as alcohol, pollutants, viruses, medications, mushroom poisoning, and radiation treatment. Elevate your well-being with the essential support of phosphatidylcholine—the key to a thriving, resilient body.
