SERENITY: ANTI-ANXIETY STRESS RELIEF
Developed by a team of scientists, Serenity offers a unique and powerful formulation of nature's best remedies to combat stress and anxiety.
Our unique formulation includes:
1. Pure Icelandic Fish Oil containing Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fish oil and certain plant oils, omega-3s have been linked to improved mental health. A study on medical students indicated that omega-3 supplementation might help reduce anxiety. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.
2. Magnesium: This essential mineral plays a role in nervous system function. Some studies suggest that magnesium supplementation can alleviate anxiety symptoms, particularly in individuals with magnesium deficiencies.
3. Probiotics: Emerging evidence suggests that gut health influences mental well-being. Probiotic supplementation has shown potential in reducing anxiety symptoms and improving mood, possibly by modulating the gut-brain axis.
4. L-Theanine: An amino acid found in tea leaves, L-theanine is known for its calming effects. Studies have demonstrated its potential to reduce stress-related symptoms and improve sleep quality. It's generally considered safe but should be used under professional guidance.
5. Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata): This herbal supplement has been used to treat anxiety and insomnia. Some studies suggest it may help reduce anxiety symptoms, but more research is needed to confirm its efficacy.
6. Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla): Commonly consumed as a tea, chamomile has been used for its calming effects. Research indicates it may help reduce anxiety symptoms.
7. Vitamin B Complex: B vitamins play a role in brain health. Some studies have found that supplementation can improve mood and reduce anxiety, particularly in individuals with deficiencies.
8. Saffron (Crocus sativus): Known for its use as a spice, saffron has shown potential in reducing symptoms of anxiety.
FOCUS: NATURE'S SOLUTION TO ADHD
Developed by a team of scientists, Focus is perfect for those seeking a natural alternative to ADHD/ADD medication and for those who would like to be more focused.
A perfect blend of nature's solution to distractibility and enhanced cognition, Focus combines perfect amounts of:
1. Pure Icelandic fish oil, containing Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are essential for brain health. Supplementation has been associated with improvements in attention and cognitive flexibility. A systematic review indicated that a high EPA:DHA ratio (3:1) over 30 days enhanced selective attention and cognitive flexibility.
2. L-Theanine: L-theanine, an amino acid found in tea enhancse cognitive performance, including improved focus and multitasking abilities.
3. Citicoline: Citicoline is a compound that may support cognitive function by increasing phosphatidylcholine synthesis, essential for cell membranes. Clinical trials have found that citicoline supplementation might improve focus and attention.
4. Bacopa Monnieri: An herb used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine, Bacopa Monnieri has been studied for its cognitive-enhancing properties. Research involving 80 participants demonstrated significant improvements in memory, focus, and other cognitive functions after consuming 300 mg of Bacopa daily for 12 weeks.
5. Curcumin: Curcumin, the active compound in turmeric, possesses anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Several studies have shown that curcumin can improve working memory, attention, and reduce perceived fatigue.
6. Rhodiola Rosea: Rhodiola Rosea is an adaptogenic herb that may reduce mental fatigue and enhance cognitive function. A typical dosage is 400 mg daily.
8. Magnesium: Magnesium is vital for nerve function and has been linked to improved learning and memory. Adequate intake may help alleviate symptoms of brain fog and enhance focus.
9. Vitamin D: Vitamin D supports nerve cell function and overall brain health. Deficiency has been associated with cognitive impairments, and supplementation may help improve attention and focus.
10. B Vitamins: B vitamins, particularly B6, B9 (folic acid), and B12, play crucial roles in brain health. They are important for energy and brain health, and can slow cognitive decline.
DEEP SLEEP: Natural Melatonin-Free Sleep Solution
Encourage natural sleep cycles with our sleep program. Developed by a team of scientists, DEEP SLEEP allows your brain to have all of the resources it needs for a deep night's sleep. Our unique formulation includes:
Pure Icelandic Fish Oil containing Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Found in fish oil and certain plant oils, omega-3s have been linked to improved mental health. A study on medical students indicated that omega-3 supplementation might help reduce anxiety. Further research is needed to confirm these findings.
Magnesium: This mineral plays a role in numerous bodily functions, including sleep regulation. Research indicates that magnesium supplementation may improve sleep quality.
Vitamin D: Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with sleep disturbances. Supplementation in individuals with low vitamin D levels has shown potential benefits in improving sleep quality and duration.
Valerian Root: Herbal supplements containing valerian root have been used traditionally to alleviate insomnia and promote restful sleep. Some studies suggest it may improve sleep quality by increasing levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, which has a calming effect.
Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid (GABA): As an inhibitory neurotransmitter, GABA plays a key role in promoting relaxation and reducing neuronal excitability. Some products aim to enhance GABA activity to improve sleep and reduce anxiety.
Honey: A comprehensive review examined honey's intrinsic properties and their impact on sleep quality. The findings suggest that honey, with its unique composition and soothing effects, offers a promising avenue for enhancing sleep patterns without relying on pharmaceutical interventions.
***WHY WE DON'T USE MELATONIN:***

3. Hormonal Effects
- May Affect Puberty in Adolescents: Some research suggests that long-term use in children and teens could impact hormone levels and delay puberty.
- Possible Effects on Reproductive Hormones: Some studies suggest melatonin may influence estrogen and testosterone levels, though more research is needed.
4. Potential Long-Term Concerns
- Dependence & Tolerance: While melatonin is not considered addictive, some users may develop psychological dependence, believing they cannot sleep without it.
- Reduced Natural Melatonin Production: There is concern that taking melatonin regularly could suppress the body’s own production, although more research is needed.
5. Drug Interactions
Melatonin can interact with certain medications, including:
- Blood Thinners (e.g., Warfarin) – May increase bleeding risk.
