Both ingredient amounts are disclosed, so their contributions can be compared. Neither form is specified, leaving the type of preparation unclear.
Value For Money70
The melatonin contribution is affordable at the full serving cost. The value of the added theanine remains uncertain.

Product Focus85
Melatonin supplies most of the sleep-related support, with little supported contribution from the small theanine amount. The melatonin serving is above lower amounts used in small studies, without showing greater benefit.
