NIGHT TIME SUPERFOODS Hot Cocoa EXTRA STRENGTH Melatonin
moonbrew
Overview
This 'Night Time Superfoods' blend combines cocoa with several ingredients intended to promote relaxation and improve sleep. While some ingredients like glycine, L-Tryptophan, and chamomile have research supporting their use for sleep, the relatively low doses of some components, combined with proprietary blends, make it difficult to ascertain the overall effectiveness of this product. The absence of a specified amount of melatonin also raises concerns about its ability to reliably aid sleep onset and maintenance.
