At Nutreance, safety and effectiveness are paramount in our mission to provide you with innovative natural remedies. That's why RediCalm has been carefully formulated using only the most effective natural ingredients with the highest safety ratings, according to extensive clinical research.
But it's not enough to simply combine dietary supplements recommended by scientific studies into a formula. The quality of the ingredients that make up any natural remedy are critical to its overall efficacy.
Just as you can buy fresh fruits or vegetables from a farmer's market that are of much higher quality than at your local supermarket, not all ingredients are created equal. In the same way, you may be able to purchase the same ingredient from two different suppliers, but the purity and potency may be entirely different. For this reason, we thoroughly vet our raw material suppliers to ensure that our natural remedies are comprised of only the highest quality ingredients.
L-Theanine | For centuries, green tea has been a cornerstone of Japanese culture, so ubiquitous that it is commonly referred to as simply "tea." Its reputation as a natural relaxant has long been established, but it was not until the 1950s that clinical research identified that the source of green tea's calming properties were its naturally-occurring L-theanine content. Further investigation into l-theanine has revealed that the amino acid can boost GABA, serotonin, and dopamine levels for an overall sensation of relaxation.[1] |
5-HTP | An amino acid, 5-HTP occurs naturally in your body as the precursor to the inhibitory neurotransmitter serotonin. Since 5-HTP is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, ingesting the amino acid in supplement form can directly enhance the central nervous system's synthesis of serotonin. Through this mechanism, 5-HTP has been shown to be effective in relieving stress in several scientific studies.[2] |
Ashwagandha Powder | The ashwagandha plant has been used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine since ancient times to defend against physiological stress. Modern scientific research has confirmed that ashwagandha possesses adaptogenic qualities, in that it helps to restore balance to stress levels affected by persistent worry. One recent study has pointed to ashwagandha's abilities to reduce levels of the stress hormone cortisol, as well as self-assessed levels of stress, among participants.[3] |
Lemon Balm Powder | Lemon balm is a perennial herb and member of the mint family whose use has dated back to the Middle Ages for its calming and pain-relieving properties. Today, it is commonly used in many herbal teas and foods for flavoring, but recent clinical research has documented its efficacy as a natural stress reliever. A study on the effects of several calming herbs on GABA enzymes concluded that a lemon balm solution dramatically enhanced GABA activity in the central nervous system.[4] |
Passion Flower Powder | Passion flower, indigenous to the southern United States, was originally used by traditional Native American healers for its calming benefits and later adopted by European settlers as a remedy for stress and sleeplessness. Today, passion flower is still recognized as a critical anti-stress herb in holistic and alternative medicine. One 2001 study found favorable results when reviewing passion flower's effectiveness in relieving chronic stress.[5] |
Vegetable Capsule (Capsule Shell) | Many supplements that you purchase from the store use gelatin capsules to deliver their active ingredients. Not only are these capsules not vegetarian, as they are made from animal parts, but they are also often colored with harmful dyes to obscure their inner contents. But RediCalm uses only vegan, non-GMO vegetable capsules made from plant cellulose and contain no additional additives like colors or dyes. This ensures that our product is sensitive to dietary restrictions and completely natural for everyone to take. |
Rice Flour | While rice flour is not an active ingredient in the RediCalm formula, it is certainly not just a "filler" ingredient. Rice flour's highly absorbent qualities make it a crucial part of the capsule delivery system, as it ensures that any wet or oily ingredients do not leak out of the capsule. In addition, mixing the natural ingredients with rice flour helps to ensure that each and every pill has exactly the right amount of natural ingredients inside. We only use rice flour inside our supplements to ensure that our products are gluten-free. |
Magnesium Stearate | Magnesium stearate is present in trace amounts in nearly all capsule and tablet products. It is primarily used as a lubricant that makes the pill easier to swallow and allows it to slide more easily down your digestive tract. It also serves an important purpose as an excipient, meaning that it improves the solubility of the active ingredients and assists your body in absorbing the capsule contents. |
