Key Ingredients
L-Tryptophan
Tryptophan is an amino acid that is converted to serotonin and melatonin in the brain, hormones that play important roles in regulating our mood and sleep, respectively.
L-theanine
L-theanine is an amino acid naturally occurring in tea; the highest concentration is found in green tea, where L-theanine makes up about 1-2 percent of the dry weight of green tea leaves. Research suggests L-theanine is helpful to reduce stress and induce relaxation.
GABA
GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a non-protein amino acid and neurotransmitter that is an important regulator of sleep, circadian rhythms, and stress. GABA is present in some natural foods, such as soybeans, fermented foods, tea, and adzuki beans, and supplemental GABA has been demonstrated to have stress-reducing properties.
Phosphatidylserine
Phosphatidylserine is a major phospholipid in brain cell membranes, important for cell signaling and neurotransmitter release.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) is an herb traditionally used in Ayurveda that has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and studies and clinical evidence report reductions in stress. We use organic ashwagandha in Calm Biotect
Organic botanical blend
Passionflower, a purple-flowered vine native to the Southeastern United States, has been linked to quality sleep and healthy stress levels. Several randomized controlled trials on valerian have reported improvements in sleep duration or sleep quality, or reductions in stress. Chamomile tea, rich in phytochemicals including the flavonoid apigenin, has long been thought to have calming effects, and recent studies on chamomile supplementation support this. In animal studies, L-theanine and phytochemicals from passionflower, valerian, and chamomile affect levels of the neurotransmitter GABA, and they are thought to promote relaxation and sleep through GABA.
