I sort of guessed about it being US-only when I saw inches and lbs so perhaps in that same page should be okay :-) I hope I can try it someday!

We are looking to expand into other countries this coming year in particular possibly Canada and Australia. Where are you hoping for us to ship?

Why not ship worldwide all at once?

The US is notoriously unregulated. Why bother in countries with strong consumer protection and health claim laws? Ride the wave of corruption while it's still possible. Its not going to go anywhere under Trump.

iHerb ships to over 150 countries, somehow. As well as many online stores that ship almost everywhere.

I am not sure what kind of problem there can be in shipping supplements, which are unregulated by definition.

There are lots of regulatory limitations in making sure each supplement is allowed for consumption in each country (let alone each state). So we are making sure we have all the precautions met before doing something worldwide.
