A potent multi-ingredient blend for stress and sleep, featuring GABA, L-Theanine, and Ashwagandha, but at a premium cost.

Analysis

This product provides a thoughtful combination of stress-reducing ingredients, including 200mg of GABA, 150mg of L-Theanine (known for promoting calm without drowsiness), and 250mg of Sensoril Ashwagandha extract (a potent adaptogen). It also includes Magnesium and Pantothenic Acid, which support nervous system function. This synergistic blend targets stress, mood, and sleep through multiple pathways, offering a holistic approach. While the formulation is strong, the product's very high price per serving makes it a significant investment for daily use, and its low review count suggests it is not yet widely recognized or adopted, limiting broader consumer trust.

Pros
  • Comprehensive blend of effective ingredients (GABA, L-Theanine, Ashwagandha, Magnesium), targeting multiple pathways.
  • Uses Sensoril Ashwagandha, a clinically studied adaptogen known for stress reduction.
  • Targets multiple pathways for stress and sleep support, offering holistic benefits.
  • Good dosage of GABA and L-Theanine for their respective roles in calming and focus.
Cons
  • Very high price per serving, making it cost-prohibitive for consistent, long-term use for many.
  • Low review count, indicating less widespread adoption or feedback, which can affect consumer confidence.
  • Proprietary blend (Botanical Support Blend) hides exact quantities of some ingredients, limiting transparency.
Warnings
  • Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if pregnant, nursing, or taking other medications.
  • May cause drowsiness; avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after use, due to the combination of calming ingredients.

Categories
GABA 60.0
While containing a decent amount of GABA (200mg), this product is more of a multi-ingredient blend for overall stress and sleep support rather than a dedicated GABA supplement. Its high price reduces its value within the pure GABA collection, as more cost-effective pure GABA options exist.
Goals
Stress Relief 80.0
The synergistic blend of GABA, L-Theanine, and especially Sensoril Ashwagandha, makes this product highly promising for comprehensive stress relief. Each ingredient targets stress through different mechanisms, offering a more robust effect, though the price remains a consideration for long-term use.
Sleep Support 80.0
This product is specifically formulated for nighttime use, leveraging the calming effects of GABA and L-Theanine, along with the adaptogenic benefits of Ashwagandha to aid sleep. It avoids melatonin, which is a plus for some users seeking alternatives to traditional sleep aids.
Mood Support 75.0
By reducing stress and promoting relaxation, the combined ingredients are well-suited to support a stable and positive mood. L-Theanine, in particular, is known for promoting alert relaxation, which is beneficial for mood without excessive sedation.
