How to Take It

Best taken in the evening

Calming herb — used in the evening, most often as a pre-sleep tea or extract. What's in this absorbs poorly without a fat-containing meal — take it with one.

With a meal containing fat
Label directs 2 servings — keep one for the evening

On the label

As a dietary supplement, take two capsules in the morning and evening with water before meals.

The label says to take it on an empty stomach, but what's in this absorbs poorly without dietary fat. Take it with a meal that has some.

General guidance based on the ingredients, not a substitute for the label or your doctor.

Nutrient data (RDA, UL, and safety thresholds) sourced from the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements and the National Academies Dietary Reference Intakes (DRI).

This is not medical advice. Consult a healthcare provider before making changes to your supplement routine.

The score analyzes what's on the label: ingredient doses vs. studied ranges, chemical forms, evidence levels, and known interactions. It does not verify label accuracy or test for contaminants — for that, look for third-party certifications like USP or NSF.
