What Fortheca is for

  • GABA supports relaxation and sleep onset by modulating inhibitory neurotransmission
  • L-Theanine promotes alpha-wave activity — the relaxed-alert state that eases the transition to sleep without sedating
  • Magnesium glycinate is the highest-bioavailability magnesium form; supports muscle relaxation and GABA receptor activity
  • Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) has demonstrated non-inferior sleep quality improvement vs lorazepam 0.5 mg in a randomised crossover study
  • 5-HTP supports serotonin and melatonin precursor supply
  • Low-dose melatonin (1 mg) supports circadian rhythm alignment — the dose at which melatonin’s chronobiotic effect is most pronounced with minimal next-day grogginess

How to take

Take 1 capsule 30–60 minutes before sleep. Take with water, not with alcohol. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery after taking.


Cautions

  • Contains 5-HTP — do not combine with SSRIs, MAOIs, SNRIs or other serotonergic medication without physician supervision
  • Contains melatonin — not suitable for daytime use; may impair driving alertness for several hours
  • Passionflower has mild sedative properties — additive with alcohol, benzodiazepines, and other sedatives
  • Not for use in pregnancy or lactation
  • Start with 1 capsule; do not exceed 1 capsule per night
