- Supports biological reactions such as ATP-fueled reactions and pancreatic insulin secretion (90,91).
- Supports the reduction of systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, triglycerides, and healthy HDL levels (90,91).
- Reduces peripheral cortisol levels in the CNS and supports relaxation and decreased anxiety (90,91).
|
| L-Tryptophan |
- Decreases anxiety, supports positive mood, supports gut-brain axis, and improves sleep cycle (259,260).
- Decreases enxiety via increases in 5 HTP (259, 260).
- Improves circadian rhythm via increased natural melatonin production (259,260).
- Supports the gut-brain axis via naturally increased production of serotonin in gut neurons (260).
|
| Goji Berry |
- Supports immune health, vision health, and immune health, and aids as a neuroprotective agent (261,262).
- Supports immune function via carotenoid and polyphenolic free radical scavenging capabilities, reduced DNA damage, and reduced inflammatory cytokines (261).
- Supports vision health via ocular neuroprotective effects zeaxanthin content (found in goji berry) (262).
- Increases neuronal protection with potent ameliorative effects on neuronal oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and neuronal cell death (262).
|
| Chamomile |

|
| Lemon Balm |
- Supports healthy sleep, relaxation, reduced anxiety, and antioxidant support (254,255).

- Supports relaxed sleep via enhanced REM cycles and reduced stress at bedtime (254,225).
|
| Passion Flower |
- Reduces stress, enhances sleep and improves mood (248).
- Enhances positive mood and sleep via regulated gamma‐aminobutyric acid receptor A (GABAA) activity (receptor which controls sleep) (248).
|
| L-Taurine |
- Supports hydration, increased energy, antioxidant function, and increases fat metabolism during aerobic exercise (242,243).
- Supports antioxidant function via combating reactive oxygen species (243).
- Increases fat metabolism during exercise via enhanced mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (cells using fat as fuel) (242).
|
| Hops |
- Combats depression, and enxiety, reduces triglycerides and supports a positive mood (246,247).
|
| St. John’s Wort |
- Combats depression and supports a positive mood (249,250).
|
| GABA |
- Supports relaxation, positive mood increased memory, reduced anxiety, blood sugar regulation, and increased growth hormone production (102).
|
| Skullcap |
- Supports calming mood and relaxation.
|
| L-Theanine |
- A unique non-protein amino acid is found in green tea (Camellia sinensis) (53).
- Supports mood, mental clarity, and cognitive health, memory, and is a natural anti-depressant/neuroprotective agent (53).
- Aids as an antidepressant due to partial antagonism for the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor manifesting its cognitive optimizing effects (53).
- Reduces the neuropsychiatric side effects of chronic adolescent THC exposure (54).
|
| Ashwagandha |
- Supports cardiovascular, hormonal, immune, healthy weight loss, mood, and optimized sleep (82,83).
- Reduces stress hormone cortisol resulting in improved body composition, sex hormone profile, and mood (82,83).
- Improves exercise performance via increased V02 max, muscular endurance, muscle hypertrophy (muscle growth), and decreased muscular fatigue (83).
- Improves the quality of sleep by enhancing sleep recovery, reducing plasma cortisol concentrations, and enhancing REM sleep cycles (83).
- Supports hormonal and immune health via reduced production of inflammatory molecules (reactive oxygen species) and simultaneous increases in sex hormones (84).
|
