Doctor Life / 01

Sleep & Stress

Made for your daily routine.

Valerian and chamomile form the botanical foundation of this evening blend. Holy basil adds an adaptogen studied in everyday stress, while magnolia completes a formula designed for the transition from a busy day to rest.

Two capsules with dinner make a simple, consistent evening ritual. The plant-based pullulan capsule also makes the product suitable for a vegan diet.

Sleep & Stress

Why does winding down before bed matter?

Preparing for sleep starts before you close your eyes. It takes time to shift from activity to rest, and lingering tension can make it harder to settle into a consistent sleep routine. This formula combines botanicals associated with relaxation and nighttime rest with an adaptogen studied in stress response, bringing both areas into one evening ritual.

What research informs Sleep & Stress?

Research on valerian and chamomile has explored sleep quality, time to fall asleep, and nighttime awakenings. Holy basil has been studied in everyday stress response, with some trials also assessing self-reported sleep. Magnolia research includes tension, mood, and perceived stress. These ingredient studies informed the combination; they do not establish the same effects for the finished product.
