The best Nootropic for sleep
Take ZZZZs before you hit the sack so you’re noticeably rejuvenated and refreshed in the morning.
Elle, April 2019
Every day starts with a good night’s sleep. ZZZZs naturally supports a regenerative sleep. Combining 5HTP with calming amino acids and the dietary minerals Magnesium and Zinc, ZZZZs supports quality sleep, naturally.
I have slept terribly for over ten years and have tried so many different products all of which have not worked. Saw these advertised and decided on one last try – they are brilliant. I no longer lie awake in bed sometimes till the early hours but within about an hour of taking the capsule drift off to sleep and manage to stay asleep most of the night. They have made such a difference to my quality of life.

5-HTP from Griffonia seed to help increase brain serotonin levels
5-HTP is the precursor to serotonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for happiness. Because of this role in creating serotonin, 5-HTP is also indirectly involved in producing melatonin, a hormone critical for sleep. Melatonin helps the body’s bio clock stay in sync and regulates daily sleep-wake cycles. Regular sleep-wake cycles are the foundation for restful and rejuvenating sleep. Research also suggests that 5-HTP may help shorten sleep onset time and increase sleep duration. Our 5-HTP is from Griffonia seed, a West African shrub1.
Calming Amino Acids L-Glycine and L-Theanine
We’ve included the calming Amino Acids L-Glycine and L-Theanine. L-Glycine has been shown to reduce sleep onset time and improve sleep quality while L-Theanine helps promote relaxation.2
Essential dietary minerals Magnesium and Zinc
Magnesium deficiencies are common in developed countries and a lack of magnesium can raise blood pressure and reduce insulin sensitivity. People with low magnesium levels often experience restless sleep, whereas healthy magnesium levels often lead to deeper, better sleep. Magnesium also plays a role in supporting sleep by maintaining levels of GABA, a neurotransmitter that promotes sleep.3
Zinc is an essential mineral and antioxidant involved in many enzyme processes. Recent research has shown that zinc levels vary with sleep quantity and zinc supplementation can increase both sleep amount and quality.4
BioPerine® to improve absorption
You aren’t what you eat, you are what you absorb, and much of the goodness from food and supplementation can be lost through poor nutrient absorption.
We ensure you get maximum benefits from ZZZZs with an effective dose of BioPerine®, an extract from black pepper proven to increase bioavailability (absorption of nutrients).

I’ve always struggled with sleep; drifting off can take hours, and once I’m finally out, I find myself waking up throughout the night.
Since taking ZZZZs I’ve seen a genuine improvement. I’m falling asleep more easily and sleeping through to my alarm!
For £19.99, it’s worth trying. Sleep is ludicrously important and I feel better for it.

After trying many different supplements and helpful ‘sleep hacks’ with no luck I was doubtful this would work.
However I was pleasantly surprised, not only did I fall asleep quicker I was woke up more refreshed and noticed a huge difference in my mood, energy and performance in the gym!
Fab product and one I now happily recommend to anyone who struggles to sleep or wants a better quality of sleep!

These supplements really do the trick. I was quite skeptical (but since its all natural ingredients, I gave it a shot), but I was in desperate need to get some rest. I think I´d noticed the first improvements after 5-6 days. Even though I had a very stressful time (which keeps me from falling asleep as easily as I usually do) I fell asleep smoothly and didn´t wake up every hour checking my watch; hence I woke up feeling more rested. Also… I am tracking my sleep quality and the analysis showed an extension of the deep sleep phase and apparently, I dream more.

These definitely seem to be helping me sleep, no noticeable side effects, well worth a try.

I came back from USA with horrendous jet lag and could not sleep at all. Kept waking up at 2am every night wide awake and it was really getting me down. I tried these supplements and the first night I slept right through and have done ever since. I am now recommending them to everyone I know who is struggling to sleep for whatever reason. Just about to buy my mum some now. Excellent product !
