Sleepem Ingredients
Three ingredients are individually disclosed; the remaining 12 sit within a proprietary blend, so exact amounts for those 12 are not confirmed.
Melatonin
The hormone most directly tied to signaling sleep onset. Individually disclosed on the label.
Magnesium
A mineral studied for calming the nervous system and easing physical tension. Individually disclosed on the label.
Vitamin B6
Supports the conversion of amino acids into sleep-related neurotransmitters, including serotonin. Individually disclosed on the label.
The Proprietary Sleep Blend
L-Tryptophan, Lycium Berry (Goji Berry), Chamomile, Lemon Balm, Passionflower, L-Taurine, Hops, St. John's Wort, GABA, Skullcap, L-Theanine, Ashwagandha, Inositol, and 5-HTP are combined in a proprietary blend, meaning individual amounts for each are not disclosed.
The Ingredient Worth Special Attention: St. John's Wort
St. John's Wort is a well-documented inducer of liver enzymes that metabolize many medications, which can reduce the effectiveness of antidepressants, hormonal birth control, blood thinners, and other prescription drugs. Combined with 5-HTP and L-Tryptophan — both serotonin precursors — this formula carries a genuine serotonin syndrome risk for anyone also taking an SSRI, SNRI, or MAOI antidepressant.
Before You Start
If you take any prescription medication, especially an antidepressant, blood thinner, or hormonal contraceptive, talk to a licensed healthcare professional before use. This also applies if you are pregnant, nursing, or under 18.
