Zen Sleep + Immunity Restorative Sleep
Hyland's
Overview
While containing well-researched ingredients for sleep and immune support, the 'Proprietary Zen Blend' lacks transparency regarding individual ingredient dosages, making it difficult to ascertain optimal effectiveness for several key herbs. However, the melatonin dose is clinically relevant, and the immune support ingredients are adequately dosed.
The Good
Combines sleep and immune support in one product.
Contains a clinically relevant dose of melatonin for sleep.
Includes well-established immune-supporting nutrients (Vitamin C and Zinc).
The Bad
Proprietary blend (Zen Blend) hides specific dosages of key herbal ingredients (Elderberry, L-Theanine, Lemon Balm, Chamomile, Passionflower), making their efficacy for sleep and relaxation uncertain due to likely underdosing.
Contains added sugars (3g per serving).
Zinc dose (2.2mg) is lower than typically recommended for direct common cold intervention (often 75mg/day elemental zinc).
Is it for you?
Best For: Individuals seeking sleep support, those looking to boost immunity, people with occasional sleeplessness
Skip If: You are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking other medications without consulting a doctor.
