Score 50.0

Expensive melatonin blend with beneficial minerals but uses a non-transparent proprietary blend.

Analysis

Kavinace OS Capsules contain a 5 mg dose of melatonin alongside Selenium, Zinc, and Magnesium, and a proprietary blend. The inclusion of these minerals is beneficial, as Zinc and Magnesium are known to aid relaxation and sleep, and Selenium is an antioxidant. However, the product's major downsides are its very high price per serving and the undisclosed quantities within the 'Proprietary Blend,' which makes it difficult to assess the full efficacy and safety of the formula.

Pros
  • Combines an effective 5 mg melatonin dose with beneficial minerals (Zinc, Magnesium, Selenium) for multi-faceted support.
  • Minerals contribute to relaxation, nervous system health, and antioxidant defense.
Cons
  • Extremely high price per serving, making it one of the most expensive options.
  • Contains a 'Proprietary Blend' (214 mg) which lacks transparency regarding specific ingredient amounts, hindering informed consumer choice.
  • Low review count compared to other common melatonin products.
Warnings
  • Standard melatonin warnings regarding drowsiness and operating machinery.
  • The lack of transparency in the proprietary blend means consumers cannot know the precise amounts of all active ingredients, which can be a concern for allergies or sensitivities.
  • Consult a healthcare professional, especially if taking other mineral supplements or medications.

Categories
Melatonin 60.0
Despite a thoughtful blend of ingredients, the high price point and the use of an opaque proprietary blend make it a less competitive choice within the melatonin collection, limiting its overall recommendation.
Goals
Stress Relief 80.0
Magnesium and Zinc are crucial for nervous system function and can significantly aid in stress reduction and relaxation. This makes the product potentially effective for stress beyond just improving sleep.
Sleep Support 80.0
The 5 mg melatonin dose is generally effective, and the inclusion of sleep-supportive minerals like Magnesium and Zinc creates a comprehensive formula for improving sleep quality. However, the proprietary blend reduces confidence in its full efficacy.
Anti-Aging 50.0
Selenium is a potent antioxidant, and Zinc and Magnesium also play roles in cellular health and repair, offering some indirect anti-aging benefits. However, it's not a primary anti-aging product.
