BioSpec Relaxaid PM

Practical Considerations

• Sleep supports everyday cardiometabolic wellness: Consistent, restorative sleep helps maintain healthy blood sugar balance, blood pressure regulation, and overall metabolic function—key foundations for long-term wellness.*
• Sleep quality influences mood and mental performance: Poor sleep can contribute to daytime irritability, lower stress resilience, and reduced focus and concentration, making it harder to stay sharp and productive.*
• Sleep is essential for recovery and energy: Deep sleep is when the body prioritizes cellular repair and recovery, which can impact next-day energy, exercise recovery, and overall vitality.*
• Sleep plays a role in immune resilience: Adequate sleep supports normal immune function and the body’s ability to respond appropriately to everyday stressors.*
• Practical self-check: If you regularly wake unrefreshed, rely heavily on caffeine, or notice afternoon energy crashes, it may be worth prioritizing sleep routines (consistent bedtime, morning light exposure, and limiting late-night screens) as a foundational wellness step.*

Product Description:

Relaxaid PM combines clinically studied botanicals and flavonoids—passionflower, ashwagandha, valerian, apigenin, and saffron—to help support a calm mind and a relaxed state, making it easier to unwind at bedtime.* With melatonin (6 mg) to support healthy circadian rhythm signaling, it’s designed to promote a more restful night’s sleep and help you wake feeling refreshed—especially during times of occasional stress or sleeplessness.*

Ingredient Highlights:

• Melatonin (6 mg) – Supports the onset of sleep and healthy sleep quality by engaging MT1/MT2 melatonin receptors to align circadian timing. Human meta-analyses show melatonin shortens sleep-onset latency and modestly increases total sleep time.*
• Saffron extract (25 mg; ~0.3% safranal) – Supports subjective sleep quality, likely via serotonergic and GABAergic pathways associated with safranal/crocins. Recent randomized trials and reviews report improvements in validated sleep-quality scales in adults with poor sleep.*
• Ashwagandha root extract (450 mg; 5% withanolides)
  Supports sleep quality and efficiency by promoting a healthy stress response (HPA-axis modulation) and calming GABAergic tone. Pooled RCT data show modest but significant improvements in sleep quality, latency, and efficiency versus placebo.*
• Valerian root extract (400 mg; 0.8% valerenic acid)
  Supports relaxation and healthy sleep quality, plausibly through positive allosteric modulation of GABA-A receptors and inhibition of GABA breakdown.*
• Passionflower extract (500 mg; 3.5% flavonoids)
  Promotes relaxation that can support subjective sleep quality, consistent with GABAergic pathway modulation observed preclinically. Small, double-blind human trials report improved self-rated sleep quality versus placebo.*
• Apigenin (100 mg)
  Supports relaxation pathways by acting as a flavonoid modulator at GABA-A receptor sites (mechanistic evidence), which may help prepare the mind for sleep.*

FAQs:

Who may benefit from Relaxaid PM?

Relaxaid PM may be a good fit for adults who occasionally have trouble winding down at night, want support for a calm mood and relaxation, or are looking to support healthy sleep quality and next-day refreshment as part of a consistent bedtime routine.* Ingredients such as ashwagandha, valerian, passionflower, saffron extract, and melatonin have been studied for supporting sleep quality, relaxation, and sleep onset in various adult populations.

Not for everyone: If you are pregnant/nursing, under 18, or taking medications that affect sleep, mood, or sedation, consult your clinician before use.

How should I use Relaxaid PM?

• Take as directed on the Supplement Facts label, typically 30–60 minutes before bedtime (timing is especially relevant for melatonin).
• Use consistently as part of a routine: dim lights, limit screens, and keep bedtime/wake time steady—these habits complement the formula’s intent.*
• Start on a night when you can evaluate your response (especially if you’re sensitive to supplements).
• Important: Because this formula contains melatonin, avoid taking it right before activities that require alertness (e.g., driving).

What can I expect when taking this product?

Most people use formulas like Relaxaid PM to support:

• Easier “mental off-ramp” at night (calm/relaxation support), and
• More restful sleep quality and better next-day refreshment, when paired with good sleep habits.*

Possible side effects (vary by person): next-morning grogginess, vivid dreams, or drowsiness—especially if taken too late at night or if you’re sensitive to melatonin.

What 3rd party testing is performed to ensure quality and safety?

Identity & potency (make sure it is what it says it is):

• Raw material identity testing (e.g., HPTLC/HPLC where appropriate)
• Potency/standardization confirmation for botanicals (e.g., withanolides, valerenic acids, safranal) and melatonin assay (critical due to known market variability)

Purity & safety (make sure it’s clean):

• Heavy metals (ICP-MS; aligned to USP <233> / Prop 65 targets if applicable)
• Microbiology (TPC, yeast/mold; pathogen screens such as Salmonella/E. coli)
• Residual solvents (when applicable)
• Pesticides (commonly relevant for botanicals)
