|
| Vitamin B6 |
- Serves as a cofactor in more than 150 enzymatic reactions associated with blood sugar regulation, immunity, cardiovascular function, neuronal health, metabolic, and digestive health (38, 40).
- Reduces plasma glucose (blood sugar levels) by inhibiting the activity of small-intestinal α-glucosidases, enzymes associated with glucose metabolism (39).
- Functions as an antioxidant by counteracting the formation of reactive oxygen species and advanced glycation end-products, which are inflammatory markers (38, 40).
- May support blood sugar regulation in women with gestational diabetes (40).
- Acts as a cofactor for enzymes involved in DNA metabolism (40).

| Magnesium |
- Supports optimal nerve function, muscle contractions, cardiovascular health, and bone health while reducing anxiety levels (90, 91).
- Facilitates essential biological reactions such as ATP-fueled processes and pancreatic insulin secretion (90, 91).
- Contributes to the reduction of systolic blood pressure, fasting glucose levels, and triglycerides, while promoting healthy levels of HDL cholesterol (90, 91).
- Helps decrease peripheral cortisol levels in the central nervous system, promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety (90, 91).
|
| L-Tryptophan |
- Decreases anxiety and promotes a positive mood while supporting the gut-brain axis and improving the sleep cycle (259, 260).
- Reduces anxiety levels by increasing 5 HTP (259, 260).
- Enhances the circadian rhythm by boosting natural melatonin production (259, 260).
- Supports the gut-brain axis by naturally increasing serotonin production in gut neurons (260).
|
| Goji Berry |
- Supports immune health, and vision health, and acts as a neuroprotective agent (261, 262).
- Enhances immune function through its carotenoid and polyphenolic properties, which scavenge free radicals, reduce DNA damage, and decrease inflammatory cytokines (261).
- Promotes vision health by providing ocular neuroprotective effects through its zeaxanthin content, particularly found in goji berries (262).
- Provides neuronal protection by effectively alleviating neuronal oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and neuronal cell death (262).
|
| Chamomile |
- Supports healthy sleep, relaxation, and reduced anxiety, and provides antioxidant support (251, 252, 253).
- Enhances antioxidant function through its rich content of quercetin, a powerful flavonoid antioxidant (251, 252, 253).
- Promotes sleep by increasing parasympathetic activity, exhibiting benzodiazepine-like hypnotic activity to induce sleep, and interacting with GABA receptors (251, 252, 253).
|
| Lemon Balm |
- Supports healthy sleep, relaxation, and reduced anxiety, and provides antioxidant support (254, 255).
- Enhances antioxidant function by scavenging free radicals, reducing oxidative stress, and promoting increased production of glutathione, a master antioxidant that helps protect against DNA damage (254, 255).
- Supports relaxed sleep by enhancing REM cycles and reducing stress levels at bedtime (254, 255).
|
| Passion Flower |
- Reduces stress, enhances sleep, and improves mood (248).
- Enhances positive mood and sleep by regulating the activity of the gamma‐aminobutyric acid receptor A (GABAA), a receptor involved in controlling sleep (248).
|
| L-Taurine |
- Supports hydration, providing essential fluids for optimal bodily function and performance.
- Increases energy levels, helping to fuel physical activities and workouts.
- Provides antioxidant support, protecting cells from oxidative stress and promoting overall well-being.
- Enhances fat metabolism during aerobic exercise, aiding in the utilization of stored fat as an energy source.
|
| Hops |
- Combats depression, and anxiety, reduce 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 found in green tea (Camellia sinensis) supports various aspects of mental well-being (53).
- Supports mood, mental clarity, and cognitive health, including memory function (53).
- Acts as a natural anti-depressant and neuroprotective agent, promoting emotional balance and brain health (53).
- Exhibits antidepressant properties by partially antagonizing the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor, leading to cognitive optimization (53).
- Helps reduce the neuropsychiatric side effects associated with chronic adolescent THC exposure (54).
|
| Ashwagandha |
- Supports cardiovascular health, hormonal balance, immune function, healthy weight loss, mood, and optimal sleep (82,83).
- Reduces the stress hormone cortisol, leading to improvements in body composition, sex hormone profile, and overall mood (82,83).
- Enhances exercise performance by increasing V02 max, muscular endurance, muscle hypertrophy (growth), and reducing muscle fatigue (83).
- Improves the quality of sleep by promoting sleep recovery, reducing plasma cortisol concentrations, and enhancing REM sleep cycles (83).
- Supports hormonal and immune health by reducing the production of inflammatory molecules (reactive oxygen species) and simultaneously increasing sex hormone levels (84).
|
| Inositol |
- Supports liver detoxification, metabolic syndrome, and antioxidant activity (221).
- Reduces triglyceride levels and total- and LDL-cholesterol, combating metabolic syndrome (221).
- Acts as an antioxidant by decreasing reactive oxygen species and inflammatory markers like interleukin 6 (222).
|
| 5-HTP |
