Analysis

OLLY Extra Strength Sleep in Blackberry Zen flavor is a comprehensive sleep and relaxation gummy. It delivers 5mg of Melatonin, a well-accepted dose for sleep onset, and 100mg of L-Theanine, an optimal dose for promoting relaxation and improving sleep quality. What sets it apart is the inclusion of a blend of traditional calming herbs: Lemon Balm (16mg), Passionflower (17mg), and Chamomile (17mg) extracts. While the individual doses of these herbs are relatively modest for standalone use, they contribute synergistically to the calming effect of the overall formula. As a gummy, it's easy and enjoyable to take, though it contains a small amount of sugar and calories.

Pros
  • Features effective doses of both Melatonin (5mg) and L-Theanine (100mg) for sleep and relaxation.
  • Includes a beneficial blend of calming herbs (Lemon Balm, Passionflower, Chamomile) for enhanced synergistic effects.
  • Gummy form provides a pleasant taste and is easy to consume for those who prefer not to swallow pills.
  • Widely popular with a good number of positive reviews, suggesting effectiveness and user satisfaction.
  • Reasonable price per serving for a multi-ingredient gummy formula.
Cons
  • Gummy format contains added sugars and calories, which may not be suitable for all dietary preferences or those monitoring sugar intake.
  • Individual dosages of the herbal extracts are relatively low compared to standalone herbal supplements, limiting their primary impact.
Warnings
  • May cause drowsiness; avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after consumption.
  • Contains sugar; individuals monitoring sugar intake should be aware.
