Analysis

Shoden ashwagandha is listed twice at 120 mg for leaf and root, creating uncertainty about whether the total is 120 or 240 mg. Reishi is likewise duplicated at 200 mg.

The melatonin blend appears as 3 mg extended-release melatonin and 3 mg melatonin. It is unclear whether this represents one combined 3 mg dose or 6 mg total, and that distinction materially affects next-morning tolerance.

Glycine is only 250 mg, well below the gram-level amount expected to provide much sleep support. One capsule is convenient, but the label should be verified before use.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking a melatonin-based sleep product
  • Users who can verify the current label
  • People comfortable with ashwagandha and reishi
Best for
  • Occasional sleep support after dose verification
  • Users wanting extended-release melatonin
  • One-capsule nighttime routines

Pros

  • Uses Shoden ashwagandha
  • Includes extended-release melatonin
  • One-capsule serving
  • Adds fermented reishi

Cons

  • Melatonin amount is ambiguous
  • Ashwagandha and reishi entries are duplicated
  • Only 250 mg glycine
  • Only 30 servings

Warnings

  • Verify whether the melatonin total is 3 mg or 6 mg before use
  • Melatonin may cause next-morning grogginess or vivid dreams
  • Do not combine casually with sedative medicines or alcohol

Nutrient quality

76 High impact

Extended-release melatonin and branded ashwagandha provide useful sleep-focused forms. Modest glycine and duplicate ingredient entries limit dose clarity and balance.

.

Ingredient transparency

75 High impact

Principal ingredients have amounts, but duplicate entries make some totals ambiguous. Complete directions and inactive ingredients remain absent.

.

Report overview
Ashwagandha (Ashwagandha Leaf Extract, Ashwagandha root extract) · 120 mg OverallScore87
A- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyC+ Value

Shoden is a clinically studied extract supplied at the lower end of its usual daily range. The amount is clearly represented despite separate root-and-leaf descriptors, while no absorption enhancer is present. Added melatonin makes the formula sleep-specific and may increase next-morning drowsiness rather than suit daytime stress use.

Glycine · 250 mg OverallScore69
B- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyB- Value

With only 250 mg of glycine, the formula relies more on its broader sleep blend than on glycine at a commonly studied sleep dose. Shoden ashwagandha and melatonin are meaningful co-actives, while the capsule clearly discloses the glycine amount. The 3 mg melatonin may cause drowsiness or next-day grogginess, so it should not be taken before driving or other tasks that require alertness.

Glycine Powder

Metabolic Maintenance
<p>A single-ingredient glycine powder is easy to assess and practical to scale toward a multi-gram intake. It improves glycine depth over the original’s small amount, but it does not replace melatonin or ashwagandha for sleep timing and stress support.</p>
86 Performance

Anxiety & Stress Relief

Nature's Bounty
<p>Meaningfully dosed ashwagandha and theanine provide a focused stress pair without unrelated actives or the original’s uncertain stimulant system. Serving value and label clarity are stronger, although inactive ingredients and complete directions are not supplied.</p>
82 Performance

Advanced Magnesium Complex

AOR Advanced Orthomolecular Research Advanced
<p>Several absorbable magnesium forms and substantial glycine yield provide a stronger foundational glycine-mineral profile. Elemental magnesium is not split by form, and sensitive users may experience loose stools.</p>
84 Budget

Glycine 1000 mg

Life Extension
<p>A clearly measured gram-level glycine serving offers more focused glycine support at much lower cost. It does not supply melatonin or ashwagandha, while source grade and inactive ingredients are not stated.</p>
87 Budget

Ashwagandha KSM-66 600 mg

NutraBio
<p>A full-strength KSM-66 root extract provides strong form assurance and broad stress relevance for less per serving. The substantial amount may be more than sensitive users need, while pregnancy or thyroid and liver concerns require extra care.</p>
82 Budget

Sleep Well Berry Flavored

Nature's Way
<p>Branded ashwagandha, magnesium citrate, and melatonin create a concise sleep blend for less per serving. Glycine is absent and the relatively strong melatonin amount may be more than some users need.</p>
83 Value

Pharmaceutical Grade AjiPure Glycine 500 mg

Swanson Ultra
<p>A branded pharmaceutical-grade glycine source provides unusually clear raw-material quality at very low cost. The amount remains modest for multi-gram use, and it omits the original’s melatonin and ashwagandha.</p>
79 Value

Melatonin 2 mg

Metabolic Maintenance
<p>A practical melatonin amount supports sleep timing and onset at lower cost. Glycine is present far below a focused amount and no release profile is stated, while melatonin may cause next-day drowsiness with alcohol or sedating products.</p>
86 Value

Ashwagandha Sensoril

Natural Factors Stress-Relax
<p>A targeted Sensoril serving provides strong form assurance and low recurring cost. It is simpler than the original, though ashwagandha may affect thyroid function and has rare liver-injury reports.</p>
