Jolly Mama review
Jolly Mama, the French brand born around motherhood, launched a perimenopause range in 2026: Péri Support, a plant formula (shatavari, milk thistle, sage, Safr'inside™ saffron), and Péri Essentials, vitamins with Bacognize® bacopa. The formulas are transparent, vegan, dosed and standardised: this is careful work. They are aimed first at hot flushes, the cycle and fatigue. What the peri range does not contain, neither melatonin nor magnesium, is a direct answer to broken nights. Here is what each capsule contains, what it costs, and what Sleep+ and Anti-Stress, from Mush n Go, bring to your nights and your head.
Who is writing: Mush n Go makes Sleep+ and Anti-Stress, two supplements for nights and days, which overlap with part of what Jolly Mama's perimenopause range promises. This page compares what jollymama.com publishes with, for our products, the technical data sheets from our manufacturer. Recorded on 10 November 2026. We have no connection with Jolly Mama or with the company CAZERA.
Sleep+
Melatonin 1.9 mg, magnesium bisglycinate, valerian and Reishi from the fruiting body. One plant-based capsule, 30 minutes before bedtime.

Anti-Stress
Ashwagandha, Reishi, holy basil and schisandra, with 2 mg of vitamin B6, which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal psychological function.
Discover Anti-Stress →Our verdict in brief
Jolly Mama for hot flushes and the cycle, Sleep+ for your nights.
Jolly Mama's peri range is well built: Péri Support brings together four standardised plants for hot flushes, night sweats and an irregular cycle, and Péri Essentials covers everyday vitamins with bacopa. Mush n Go sells nothing for hot flushes or for the cycle. Our ground is your nights and your head: Sleep+ provides 1.9 mg of melatonin, which contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep, with magnesium, valerian and Reishi; Anti-Stress supports busy days. If it's your nights that give way first, the peri range has no formula for them.
- Sleep+ is for you if you struggle to fall asleep or wake at 4am: one plant-based capsule in the evening, 1.9 mg of melatonin, 60 mg of magnesium, which contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, valerian and Reishi, and 60 days to change your mind, even on opened boxes.
- Jolly Mama is for you if hot flushes, sweats or a cycle that has become irregular are your main concern: Péri Support targets them with 500 mg of shatavari, sage and saffron, hormone-free, and the brand states it is compatible with a history of breast cancer.
- On price, Péri Support costs €1.13 per day at the standard price and €0.91 during the current promotion; Sleep+ costs €1.42 as a one-off purchase and €1.00 on subscription, with no commitment.
What is Jolly Mama?
A brand founded by mums, a peri range launched in 2026.
Jolly Mama is the brand of the Paris-based company CAZERA, founded in 2018 by two mums, Marie and Margaux, around pregnancy and breastfeeding supplements. It claims more than 200,000 customers and works with a team of named experts: a midwife, a dietitian, a naturopath and a psychologist. Its products are sold on jollymama.com, in pharmacies and online at Atida.
The range dedicated to perimenopause has three products, launched between March and October 2026: Péri Support, with plants, Péri Essentials, with vitamins, and a Pack périménopause that pairs Péri Essentials with Metabolism Support, a formula for metabolism. The pack does not contain Péri Support. The site's menopause collection also includes other products from the brand, among them a sleep supplement, Mama Dreams, which we did not record here.
The full composition
What is inside Péri Support and Péri Essentials.
Jolly Mama states everything: the dose of each active ingredient per two capsules, the standardisation of the extracts where there is one, the form of the vitamins and the origin of the plants. It's exemplary. The only gap: the ratio of the sage extract and the standardisation of the saffron are not given.
| Per 2 capsules, per day | Péri Support | Péri Essentials |
|---|---|---|
| Shatavari | 500 mg of root extract, standardised to 20% saponins | — |
| Milk thistle | 250 mg of seed extract, standardised to 80% silymarin | — |
| Sage | 123.32 mg of extract, ratio not stated | — |
| Saffron | 30 mg of Safr'inside™ extract, standardisation not stated | — |
| Bacopa | — | 300 mg of Bacognize® extract, including 36 mg of glycosides |
| Choline | — | 50 mg |
| B vitamins | — | B1, B2, B5, B6, B8, B9, B12 at 100%; B3 at 33% |
| Other vitamins | — | A 50%, C 50%, D3 200%, E 100%, K2 100% |
| Minerals | — | zinc 50%, selenium 82%, chromium 50%; no iron, magnesium or iodine |
| Melatonin, magnesium | absent | absent |
| Vegan | yes | yes |

Hot flushes
Hot flushes are Péri Support's territory.
On hot flushes and night sweats, Jolly Mama offers a formula and we don't. Péri Support combines 500 mg of shatavari, sage and 30 mg of Safr'inside™ saffron, and the brand announces “-75%” in hot flushes “according to 1 study at 1 month”. The studies it cites for hot flushes and sweats were carried out on menopausal women, not on Péri Support itself.
Jolly Mama also stresses a point that matters to many women: its formula is hormone-free, and the brand presents it as compatible with a history of breast cancer and with thyroid disorders. Finally, it offers an online perimenopause assessment and a free consultation: genuine support.
Mush n Go sells no supplement for hot flushes or night sweats. Sleep+, Anti-Stress and Focus are not formulated for them, and we claim no effect on them or on hormones. If hot flushes are your main concern, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
Extract or equivalent
Two figures for the same mushroom: how to read them.
On a supplement label, the same ingredient can appear with two very different weights. Both are correct; they don't measure the same thing. Péri Support does not state the ratio of its sage extract: we know the weight of extract, not the quantity of starting plant. For the Reishi and valerian in Sleep+, we give both figures.
The extract is what's in the capsule
An extract is a concentrate. With a 10:1 ratio, it took 10 g of dried mushroom to obtain 1 g of powder.
The equivalent is the starting weight
“1,000 mg dry equivalent” with a 10:1 ratio means 100 mg of extract in the capsule.
The part of the mushroom matters
The fruiting body is the mushroom itself; the mycelium is its network of filaments. Both are used, and a clear label says which.
The rule for comparing
Always the same column on both sides: extract against extract, equivalent against equivalent. That is what the following table does.
Your nights, line by line
Your nights: what Sleep+ provides and the peri range doesn't.
Waking at 3 or 4am, falling asleep taking longer and longer: Jolly Mama itself lists “more fragile sleep” among the signs of perimenopause. The table compares one Sleep+ capsule with what Péri Support and Péri Essentials provide for sleep. For Sleep+, the dried plant equivalent is shown in brackets.
| In the evening | Sleep+ | Péri Support and Péri Essentials |
|---|---|---|
| Form | 1 plant-based capsule, 30 minutes before bedtime | 2 capsules of each product a day, with a glass of water |
| Melatonin | 1.9 mg | absent |
| Magnesium | 60 mg, 16% of the reference intake, provided by 300 mg of bisglycinate | absent; the brand refers you to its Mama-gnésium product |
| Valerian | 100 mg of extract (600 mg), including 0.4 mg of valerenic acid | absent |
| Reishi | 130 mg of extract (1,950 mg), fruiting body, including 39 mg of polysaccharides | absent |
| Sage | absent | 123.32 mg of extract, for night sweats |
| Sleep claim | melatonin contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep | no direct claim on either product page |
| Vegan | yes | yes |
| Manufacturing | France | France |

For your nights, Sleep+ and the peri range don't play the same role. Péri Support targets night sweats with sage; it contains nothing for falling asleep. Sleep+ provides 1.9 mg of melatonin, almost twice the threshold of 1 mg taken shortly before bedtime from which Europe recognises that melatonin contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep. It adds 60 mg of magnesium, which contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal functioning of the nervous system, plus valerian and Reishi from the fruiting body, each with its content stated. If you already take Péri Support in the morning, ask your pharmacist whether Sleep+ can be added in the evening.
Your head and your days
Days on edge, and a head in a fog.
For mood, stress and fatigue, Jolly Mama relies on the saffron and shatavari in Péri Support. Anti-Stress, from Mush n Go, is designed solely for your days: one capsule instead of two, combining ashwagandha, Reishi, holy basil and schisandra, with 2 mg of vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal functioning of the nervous system and to normal psychological function.
| During the day | Anti-Stress | Péri Support |
|---|---|---|
| Form | 1 plant-based capsule a day | 2 plant-based capsules a day |
| Plants | ashwagandha 100 mg of extract (5,000 mg), including 5 mg of withanolides; holy basil 100 mg (400 mg); schisandra 90 mg, including 4.5 mg of schisandrin | shatavari 500 mg, milk thistle 250 mg, sage 123.32 mg, saffron 30 mg |
| Mushroom | Reishi 200 mg of extract (3,000 mg), including 90 mg of polysaccharides | absent |
| Vitamin B6 | 2 mg, 143% of the reference intake | absent (1.4 mg in Péri Essentials) |
| For hot flushes and the cycle | nothing | yes, it's the product's target |

For brain fog, Jolly Mama has made a serious choice: 300 mg of Bacognize® bacopa in Péri Essentials, more than the 75 mg in our Focus capsule. Focus takes a different route, with Lion's Mane from the fruiting body, ginkgo, bacopa, saffron and maritime pine, plus vitamins B2 and B3 at 100% of the reference intake, which contribute to normal functioning of the nervous system. If you prefer a cup to a capsule, Brainstoorm, our mushroom coffee, provides 6 mg of vitamin B5, which contributes to normal mental performance.

Both brands sell in France, in euros. On the day we recorded the prices, Jolly Mama was running a “Jolly Days” promotion at −20% across the whole site, with no end date displayed: we give both prices. The prices per day are our own calculations.
| Prices recorded | Sleep+ | Péri Support |
|---|---|---|
| Format | 30 capsules, 30 evenings | 1 month, 2 capsules a day |
| 1 month, no subscription | €42.71, i.e. €1.42 per evening | €34.00, i.e. €1.13 per day; €27.20 during the promotion, i.e. €0.91 |
| 3 months, no subscription | €99.86, i.e. €1.11 per evening | €102.00, i.e. €1.13 per day; €81.60 during the promotion |
| Subscription | €29.90 a month, i.e. €1.00 per evening, no commitment | −15%, minimum commitment of 3 orders; €23.12 for the first month during the promotion, €28.90 after that (€0.96 per day) |
| Delivery | free from €89 | free from €100, or from €60 on subscription |

Prices recorded on 10 November 2026 on mushngo.com and jollymama.com. The price of the Jolly Mama subscription after the first order is not displayed: €28.90 is our calculation of −15% on €34.00. Guarantee conditions taken from each brand's terms and conditions of sale.
At the standard price, Péri Support costs slightly less per day than Sleep+ as a one-off purchase, €1.13 against €1.42, and almost the same as our subscription, €0.96 against €1.00. The differences lie in the conditions. The Mush n Go subscription stops whenever you like; Jolly Mama's commits you to three orders. Mush n Go delivers free from €59, Jolly Mama from €100. And if the product doesn't suit you, Mush n Go refunds Sleep+ for 60 days, even once opened; at Jolly Mama, an opened jar cannot be returned.
Which one to choose
Hot flushes and the cycle, or your nights and your head?
If hot flushes and a cycle going haywire are at the forefront, Jolly Mama's peri range is transparent, vegan and comes with good support: it deserves your attention. If it's your nights that are falling apart, if you wake up exhausted and on edge, that is why we created Sleep+ and Anti-Stress.
- 1.9 mg of melatonin in one capsule, 30 minutes before bedtime: melatonin contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep.
- 60 mg of magnesium, 16% of the reference intake: it contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal functioning of the nervous system.
- Valerian and Reishi from the fruiting body, each with its content stated.
- Anti-Stress for your days: one capsule, ashwagandha, Reishi, holy basil, schisandra and 2 mg of vitamin B6.
- A no-commitment subscription at €29.90 a month, free delivery from €89.
- 60-day money-back guarantee, even on opened boxes.
Sleep+ and Anti-Stress are made in France, like all Mush n Go capsules. Money-back guarantee for 60 days, even on opened boxes.
To cover morning, daytime and evening in a single order, our Perimenopause Pack brings together Brainstoorm, Anti-Stress and Sleep+.
Before you start
- Jolly Mama advises against Péri Support during pregnancy and breastfeeding, when taking antidepressants and in case of allergy to Asteraceae, and against Péri Essentials during pregnancy, when taking anticoagulants and for children and teenagers; the biotin in Péri Essentials should be mentioned before a blood test.
- Sleep+ is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women or for under-18s. Melatonin can cause drowsiness: do not drive after taking it. Ask your doctor's advice if you are on medication, particularly anticoagulants, antiepileptics, sedatives or antidepressants.
- Anti-Stress is not recommended in case of thyroid, liver or heart problems or if you take anticoagulant medication; Focus is not recommended if you take antidepressants or have epilepsy. Ask your doctor's advice.
- If you are on menopausal hormone therapy, or on treatment after cancer, talk to your doctor about any food supplement before you start.
- A food supplement should not replace a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Do not exceed the stated daily dose.
The Perimenopause Pack
Our answer for your mind and your nights. Brainstoorm in the morning, Anti-Stress during the day, Sleep+ in the evening: all three products together in a 30-day ritual, cheaper than buying them separately, as a one-off purchase or a subscription.

Everything about the Jolly Mama perimenopause range.
What is Jolly Mama's perimenopause range?
It's a range launched in 2026 by the French brand Jolly Mama: Péri Support, a plant supplement for hot flushes and the cycle, Péri Essentials, vitamins with bacopa, and a Pack périménopause that pairs Péri Essentials with Metabolism Support. All come as vegan capsules, two a day.
What is in Péri Support?
Per two capsules: 500 mg of shatavari extract standardised to 20% saponins, 250 mg of milk thistle extract standardised to 80% silymarin, 123.32 mg of sage extract and 30 mg of Safr'inside™ saffron extract, in a plant-based capsule. Péri Support contains neither melatonin nor magnesium.
What does Péri Essentials contain?
Per two capsules: 300 mg of Bacognize® bacopa, including 36 mg of glycosides, 50 mg of choline and 16 vitamins and minerals, including vitamins B1, B2, B5, B6, B8, B9 and B12 at 100% of the reference intake and vitamin D3 at 200%. It contains no iron, magnesium or iodine.
Does Péri Support have side effects?
Jolly Mama reserves Péri Support for adults and advises against it during pregnancy and breastfeeding, when taking antidepressants and in case of allergy to Asteraceae. Péri Essentials is not recommended if you take anticoagulants. If you are on medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Does Péri Support work on hot flushes?
It's its main promise: Jolly Mama states that it “reduces hot flushes and night sweats”, with “-75% according to 1 study at 1 month”. The studies cited were carried out on the plants in the formula, in menopausal women, not on Péri Support itself. Mush n Go offers no product for hot flushes.
How much does the Jolly Mama perimenopause range cost?
At the standard price, Péri Support costs €34.00 a month and Péri Essentials €30.00, i.e. €1.13 and €1.00 per day. On 10 November 2026, the “Jolly Days” promotion brought them down to €27.20 and €24.00. The Pack périménopause cost €48.75 instead of €65. The subscription takes off 15%, with a commitment of three orders.
Where can I buy Jolly Mama? Is it sold in pharmacies?
On jollymama.com and, according to the brand, in many pharmacies in France, Belgium and Switzerland. Online, on the day we recorded it, we found the peri range only at the Atida pharmacy.
What do reviews say about Péri Support?
On 10 November 2026, the Péri Support page displayed 3 reviews, for a rating of 4 out of 5, and Péri Essentials 5 reviews, for a rating of 5 out of 5: the range is recent. The menopause collection displayed 4.6 out of 5 from 1,342 reviews, across all products.
Does Jolly Mama offer a money-back guarantee?
No: Jolly Mama's terms of sale do not provide a money-back guarantee, only the 14-day withdrawal period, for an unsealed product, with return costs paid by the buyer. Mush n Go refunds Sleep+ and Anti-Stress for 60 days, even on opened boxes.
What is the difference between Péri Support and Sleep+?
Péri Support targets hot flushes, night sweats and the cycle, with four plants and no melatonin. Sleep+ targets your nights: one plant-based capsule with 1.9 mg of melatonin, 60 mg of magnesium, valerian and Reishi, with no claim to act on hot flushes.
