What is Ghrelin-X®?
Ghrelin-X® is a science-led appetite regulation supplement drink developed under The Maynard Formula™ by Dr Juliana Maynard, PhD. It is designed to support satiety, appetite balance, cravings, mood, and metabolic regulation through a multi-pathway formulation approach.
How does Ghrelin-X® work?
Ghrelin-X® is designed to support the biological systems involved in appetite regulation, including gut–brain signalling, satiety pathways, mood-related reward responses, and metabolic balance.
The formulation works with the body’s natural signalling systems rather than relying on stimulants or synthetic hormone analogues.
What is ghrelin?
Ghrelin is often referred to as the “hunger hormone.” It is produced primarily in the stomach and communicates with the brain to regulate appetite, food intake, and energy balance. Ghrelin levels naturally rise before meals and decrease after eating.
Is Ghrelin-X® a meal replacement?
No. Ghrelin-X® is not a meal replacement product.
It is designed to support appetite regulation as part of a balanced lifestyle and daily routine.
How do I take Ghrelin-X®?
Ghrelin-X® is designed to be taken daily as part of a pre-meal routine.
- Take one sachet before each main meal
- Mix with water
- Consume approximately 20–30 minutes before eating
This timing is designed to align with the body’s natural hunger and satiety rhythms.
How many sachets are included?
Each box contains 90 single-serve sachets, providing a 30-day supply when taken as directed.
Does Ghrelin-X® contain stimulants?
The Maynard Formula™ does not rely on stimulant-heavy positioning or synthetic hormone analogues.
The formulation was designed around supporting the body’s own appetite regulation pathways rather than overriding them.
Is Ghrelin-X® suitable for everyday use?
Ghrelin-X® was developed as a daily-use formulation designed to fit naturally into consistent routines and long-term lifestyle habits.
When should I expect results?
Individual experiences may vary depending on lifestyle, consistency, routine, and individual biological factors.
Some individuals may notice changes in appetite awareness, fullness, or cravings within the first few weeks of consistent use, while longer-term support is associated with ongoing routine and consistency.
Does Ghrelin-X® support weight loss?
Ghrelin-X® is designed to support appetite regulation, satiety, cravings, and metabolic balance.
It is not marketed as a rapid weight-loss product or medical treatment. Healthy body composition goals are influenced by multiple factors including nutrition, movement, sleep, stress, and consistency.
Who developed Ghrelin-X®?
Ghrelin-X® was developed with Dr Juliana Maynard, PhD, a nutritional neuroendocrinologist whose work focuses on appetite regulation, hormonal signalling, and neuroendocrine science.
What makes The Maynard Formula™ different?
The Maynard Formula™ is based on a multi-pathway approach to appetite support.
Rather than focusing on a single mechanism, the formulation strategy was designed around interconnected systems including:
- Satiety signalling
- Gut–brain communication
- Reward-circuit responses
- Mood and craving pathways
- Metabolic balance
Is Ghrelin-X® suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Ghrelin-X® is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Can I take Ghrelin-X® with antidepressants?
Ghrelin-X® is not recommended for individuals currently taking antidepressants unless advised by a qualified healthcare professional.
Where is Ghrelin-X® manufactured?
Ghrelin-X® is produced to UK/EU GMP manufacturing standards as part of Xentra Health’s science-led formulation approach.
