Product score

37.3 / 100Poor

Category average: 57.2 / 100

This is an easy one-capsule calming blend, but its individual calming ingredients are modestly dosed and its niacin exceeds the adult supplemental UL at the evaluated routine.

Scoring criteria

Quantity
50 / 100
The one-capsule routine provides clearly partial amounts of the multi-ingredient calming formula, including 200 mg each of GABA, glycine and taurine and 25 mg of valerian.
Form
65 / 100
The amino acids are ordinary listed forms, but the valerian species, plant part and preparation are not identified well enough to resolve its applicable form properties.
Convenience
100 / 100
The lowest labelled routine is one capsule once daily, and the 90-capsule package provides 90 defined capsule units.
Label accuracy
100 / 100
The high-confidence matched panel gives internally consistent declared amounts for the listed ingredients.
Formula balance
75 / 100
The ingredients are broadly compatible for the stated calming purpose, but the label does not establish a meaningful synergy or targeted balance at these amounts.
Purity
75 / 100
The formula has ordinary disclosed excipients and a GMP claim, but no independently verified product-specific testing supports a higher purity mark.
Cofactors
50 / 100
Niacin and vitamin B6 are declared at meaningful amounts with a plausible complementary neurotransmitter role, while magnesium is only a token 2% DV and added benefit remains uncertain.
