Being a grown-up is… a lot. Between work, relationships, meal-prepping something other than instant noodles (or at least pretending to), and keeping a social life alive, energy can feel like a rare currency. The old "power through" mentality really isn't cutting it anymore.

Because the struggle is in fact real. The newly launched wellness brand Energy Bird is coming to help support different aspects of mental and physical energy, working alongside your body's natural rhythms.

Energy Bird's supplements are built around a science-backed, three-pillar system designed to support different aspects of mental and physical energy throughout the day: Build helps create the energy foundation that could help you start your days energized, Boost when you need that extra energy lift and Balance to help you unwind at night.

It makes sense because the kind of energy you rely on for a morning meeting often differs from the kind you'd need to get through that afternoon, a natural energy dip or to help you wind down at night and have a good restorative sleep.

How Energy Bird actually works

Energy Bird's system is designed to work along with your body's natural internal clock, which affects your energy types and levels during the day.

Morning is about starting your day with an energy foundation that supports you. The Build products — like Build My Energy, Switch On and Shield Up — are intended to help establish this over time by supporting cognitive function, helping build resistance to stress, temporarily relieving stress symptoms, and helping protect cells from oxidative damage.

During the day, you may need sharper focus, prolonged mental stamina, or maybe a flirty pick-me-up feeling. This is where the Boost line could help.

Products like Boost My Energy, Sharpen My Mind, Feel Sexy and Connect My Brain are designed for moments when some help is required to have an extra lift, with formulas that could help temporarily enhance alertness, increase energy, support cognitive function, or help with the emotional aspects of sexual health.

And because the hustle has to pause at some point, Energy Bird's Balance products — Calm My Mind, Disconnect & Sleep and Ready to Sleep — are created to help reduce restlessness, temporarily promote relaxation and support high-quality, restorative sleep to help prepare for tomorrow's demanding day.

All Energy Bird products are authorized for sale by Health Canada as Natural Health Products, which means each ingredient has been reviewed and authorized for the benefits listed on the label. They're made in GMP-certified facilities located in Canada using carefully selected ingredients — things savvy Canadians know to look for.

If you're looking for ways to work with, not against, your body, Energy Bird might help support the right energy at the right time.
