Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an amino acid present in our bodies – a neurotransmitter in the brain. It quiets the mind before sleep and reduces the level of perceived stress that makes it difficult to fall asleep calmly and quickly. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS). It is involved in many cognitive processes, such as the ability to focus attention and working memory, while disorders of its transmission are likely responsible for numerous CNS disorders and diseases, including insomnia.

Melatonin is a naturally occurring substance in the human body. It helps to alleviate the subjective sensation of sudden time zone syndrome, reducing the time it takes to fall asleep. An adequate level of melatonin in our body regulates the sleep cycle, facilitates falling asleep and ensures uninterrupted sleep. In the human body, melatonin is produced by the pineal gland, a small gland located in the third ventricle of the brain. The production of melatonin by the pineal gland is highly dependent on the time of day and the time of year, and its normal production begins at dusk. Our body does not have the capacity to increase melatonin production, so its deficiency needs to be supplemented with dietary supplements.

L-theanine – is a non-protein amino acid that is a unique compound of Camellia sinensis tea. It was discovered in 1949 in tea leaves. The biosynthesis of theanine takes place in the roots, cotyledons and sprouts, from where it is then transported to the leaves. Tea grown in conditions with low sunlight has a high concentration of theanine. The L-theanine content of dried tea varies from 1 to 3% and depends on a number of factors, including the geographical zone in which the plant grows, the method of production, the time and technique of harvesting, and the grade and type of tea. People under stress can minimize many of the harmful effects of stress with L-theanine without the need for sedatives. L-theanine does not cause drowsiness because this amino acid does not produce theta waves in the brain.

Vitamin B6 contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal psychological function and to the normal function of the nervous system, and also contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to normal red blood cell formation, to the normal function of the immune system and to the regulation of hormonal activity. Vitamin B6 deficiency can lead to serious sleep disorders and even depressive states.

Phosphatidylcholine is the most important phospholipid contained in sunflower lecithin. Phospholipids play a very important role in metabolic processes. They are components of all biological membranes in our body and regulate enzyme activity as well as membrane permeability, transport and potential. Phosphatidylcholine increases choline levels in plasma and in the brain and accelerates the neuronal synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine.

Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress – it helps protect against damage caused by free radicals – and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. It contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels, cartilage, bones, gums, skin and teeth. It contributes to the normal function of the nervous system, to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to normal psychological function, contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E and increases iron absorption. The product contains two forms of vitamin C (sodium L-ascorbate and L-ascorbic acid), which makes it safe for people with stomach complaints.
