Analysis

Melatonin is the clearest sleep active, supported by theanine, valerian, passionflower, and tryptophan. Several of those supporting amounts are modest, leaving melatonin to carry much of the nighttime effect.

Green-tea extract and white kidney bean fit the weight-management positioning, but neither creates a strong reason to take the product at bedtime. The caffeine content is not disclosed, so the extract could work against sleep in sensitive users.

The formula combines many goals without fully resolving their tension. It may suit users seeking a combined nighttime routine, but a simpler sleep product would be easier to assess.

Who is it for
  • Adults seeking a combined nighttime and weight-management product
  • Users who tolerate melatonin
  • People not sensitive to green-tea extracts
Best for
  • Sleep preparation
  • Nighttime routine support
  • Users wanting a combined formula

Pros

  • Includes melatonin and theanine
  • Discloses an EGCG amount
  • Combines several calming botanicals

Cons

  • Caffeine amount is not stated
  • Valerian and passionflower amounts are modest
  • Metabolic and sleep goals may conflict

Warnings

  • Melatonin and valerian may cause next-day drowsiness
  • Unknown caffeine content may disrupt sleep or cause palpitations
  • Green-tea extract may cause nausea, especially when taken without food

Nutrient quality

56 Moderate impact

Melatonin provides a clear sleep-active foundation. Underdosed calming herbs and potentially stimulating weight-management ingredients weaken coherence.

.

Ingredient transparency

73 High impact

Most active names and total amounts are visible. Repeated source entries and missing non-active ingredients reduce clarity.

.

Customer satisfaction

55 Moderate impact

The supplied average rating is mixed. No specific review comments were supplied, so repeated negative experiences cannot be assessed.

Melatonin and green-tea extract provide some substance. Goal conflict and weak supporting doses limit category value.

B- Goal FitB Strength of SupportB- CoverageD Formula Quality
Melatonin · 5 mgTheanine · 125 mg

Melatonin and theanine directly support sleep timing and relaxation. Passionflower, valerian, and tryptophan are present only at modest amounts.

Green tea extract and weight-management ingredients dilute the bedtime purpose, and any residual caffeine would conflict with sleep. The higher melatonin amount may cause morning grogginess or vivid dreams in some users.

L-theanine and melatonin provide a plausible route to better sleep and calmer attention. Theanine is well dosed, but tryptophan and the calming botanicals are too modest to add much independent support.

Metabolic ingredients such as white kidney bean and green tea make the formula less focused on brain health. The melatonin amount is relatively high and may cause next-day grogginess in sensitive users.

Theanine and melatonin provide the clearest stress-related sleep support. Green-tea EGCG and white kidney bean extract serve a separate weight-management purpose.

Tryptophan, valerian, and passionflower are too small to add much, while the melatonin amount may be more than many users need. Any residual caffeine in the green-tea extract could also work against the bedtime goal because caffeine content is not disclosed.

Green tea extract supplies an antioxidant and metabolic link to healthy aging, while vitamin D adds foundational support. The rest of the formula is centered on nighttime weight management and sleep rather than a coherent longevity strategy.

The EGCG amount is stated, but caffeine content and broader extract standardization are unclear. Melatonin, valerian, and passionflower can add to drowsiness, so the combination is unsuitable before driving and may compound other sedatives.

L-theanine may support calm attention, but melatonin, valerian, passionflower, and tryptophan make the formula sedating. Green tea adds an antioxidant component without clear disclosure of caffeine or extract standardization.

The blend is better suited to bedtime than memory or daytime processing speed. Its sedating ingredients may impair driving and can compound the effects of other sedatives.

Report overview
Theanine · 125 mg OverallScore76
B+ Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityA+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

Explicit L-theanine identity confirms the active isomer, but no branded source or purity testing is shown. The clearly disclosed amount falls within the optimal range for calm and focused support. The effective amount is paired with several sleep and metabolic actives, but theanine-specific cost is high.

Melatonin · 5 mg OverallScore51
F Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC+ Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyC Value

The 5 mg amount is usable but higher than the range most aligned with natural circadian signaling. Capsule delivery offers standard absorption, but it does not provide sustained release. The high serving cost is partly supported by substantial theanine, botanical, and metabolic ingredients.

Valerian · 55 mg OverallScore48
C- Active Ingredient Quality & BioavailabilityC- Dose, Safety & Label TransparencyF Value

Raw root powder provides no concentration or standardization advantage. The 55 mg root amount is too low to contribute much beside the other ingredients. A token valerian amount makes the premium poor value for valerian-focused use.
