A salt of stearic acid used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule production

Silicon DioxideAnti-caking

Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping

Protein derived from collagen, used in traditional capsule shells

How to Take It

Best taken in the evening

Take in the evening. Amino acids compete for the same transport into the brain, so a protein-heavy meal blunts it.

On an empty stomach
Keep it away from protein-heavy meals
Space it a couple of hours from Iron, Calcium and SAMe

On the label

As a dietary supplement, take two capsules per day 30 minutes before bedtime with water.

Do not combine with St. John's Wort

Each of these raises serotonin activity on top of St. John's Wort, and together they can trigger serotonin syndrome — agitation, rapid heartbeat, raised blood pressure. Not without medical supervision.

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.
