Sleep Support.  Sleep is a crucial cornerstone of health that can be disrupted due to various circumstances such as travel, work stress and disease states. Improvement of sleep duration, sleep quality and reduction of restlessness are key factors for a better quality of life. Ingredients such as tryptophan, melatonin, passionflower and L-theanine are natural therapeutic agents that have been studied for improving sleep quality. Jujube and notoginseng extracts have been long used in traditional Chinese medicine effectively for their calmative and sedative properties.
