Calm G
Contains a blend of ingredients important for regulating glutamate activity, stress-reduction, metabolic health, and mitochondrial function*
Key ingredients
N-acetyl-L-cysteine: Precursor to L-cysteine (1). L-cysteine is required for the synthesis of glutathione, an endogenous antioxidant important for mediating oxidative stress (2).
L-theanine: Amino acid that acts as a glutamate receptor antagonist (3).* Glutamatergic signaling underlies mechanisms related to anxiousness and stress (4). In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, L-theanine was shown to significantly reduce stress (5).*
Alpha-lipoic acid: Antioxidant that is able to regenerate endogenous antioxidants and scavenge metal ions and free radicals (6).* Evidence suggests the insulin-signaling pathway is sensitive to redox status (6). Alpha-lipoic acid can influence the redox status in cells important for the translocation of glucose transporters and increasing glucose uptake (6).*
Coenzyme Q10: Compound found in nearly every human cell that is essential for mitochondrial function and antioxidant protection (7).*

Calm PRT
decreases norepinephrine and contains ingredients important for regulating the stress response, sleep, and reducing anxiousness.* Many products claim to contain sizable amounts of Rhodiola but use lower standardizations of rosavins, resulting in low amounts of rosavins in the product. Calm PRT delivers 112.5mg of rosavins per serving, more than triple the closest competitor from a meta-analysis of public formulas, and provides significant results for patients with poorly managed stress and anxiousness.* Calm PRT has also demonstrated in two meta-analyses to significantly decrease norepinephrine (91 people; p<0.01) and significantly decrease evening cortisol (106 people; p<0.01).*
Key ingredients
Rhodiola rosea root extract (standardized to 9% rosavins, providing 112.5 mg of rosavins): Adaptogen shown to reduce anxiousness and stress-related effects (1,2).*
Phosphatidylserine: Component of cell membranes important for receptor-mediated interactions (3).* Phosphatidylserine is thought to interact with cell membranes in order to dampen hypothalamic signaling and regulate the stress response (4).*
Glycine: Major inhibitory neurotransmitter that crosses the blood-brain barrier (5).* Binds receptors that regulate temperature during sleep (6).*
Taurine: Neuroprotective amino acid that provides antioxidant protection and demonstrates GABA-A agonist activity (7-9).* GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain important for calm and sleep (10-12).

Calm CP
Decreases cortisol levels and provides ingredients important for calm, sleep, and management of blood sugar*
Lagerstroemia speciosa (Banaba) leaf extract (2% corosolic acid): Corosolic acid selectively inhibits 11ß-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 (11ß-HSD1), an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of cortisone into cortisol (1, 2).* In a randomized study, corosolic acid was shown to significantly lower blood glucose levels by 20-30% after two weeks (3).*
