Pure EncapsulationsCortisol Calm - Supports Cortisol Health & Relaxation - Contains Ashwagandha & L-Theanine - Restful Sleep - 60 Capsules

Calling all Mid-life Women this is a MUST have. My doctor recommenced this product to me a little over a year ago and it has been a life changer. No more random waking up at three A.M., sleep like a baby and feel so relaxed and not on the edge any longer. I had tried it all and yes this is costly but so much better than anything I had tried.

I almost never write reviews but had to for this. I’m a PA student, so the stress is unreal right now. I went out on a limb to try these and have been amazed at the effectiveness. I only take one a day at night, and it definitely helps me wind down and get ready for bed. I sleep better and wake up feeling more level headed. I sometimes think supplements can be overhyped but these work!

Couldn’t sleep at night more than 4 hours . Been taking for a week , from day one I had a restful sleep . Definitely feel more relaxed and calmer. Makes you sleepy , better to take at night .

I am not one to take time to write a review, but when a product is good, I make time to share my experience. For a while I have faced issues sleeping and finding a way to relax, tried several things like going to the gym, drinking wine, watching tv, reading a book, writing in a journal, etc. I found this product and decided to give it a try, i havre tried other items of this same brand and the results have been amazing, therefore I made the purchase. This brand is not cheap but worth it. Well all I can say is that I am so happy, I feel rested, I can relax and sleep. Give it a try, you will feel so happy you bought it. One thing it makes me sleepy, the bottle states to take one in the morning and one at night, I do not take the morning pill, I need to feel alert because I need to make a living and go to this thing they call work.

This product works pretty well when I take it at night but if I take it in the morning, it makes me really tired. I don't feel as emotional and don't overreact as bad to the "little things" but I wouldn't say it is absolutely life changing. I think it is a good addition to other healthy choices, but not an end all be all.

Ok the thing with reviewing supplements is, like any medicine, reactions and needs are individual. If you don’t have high cholesterol, and you take a statin, it’s not that statins are bad - it’s just not for you. I’d encourage other reviewers to add context to their reviews!My context is: with my doctor, we reviewed a bunch of symptoms and did some testing of my neurotransmitter and hormone levels over 24 hours. It was very apparent there was a problem with my cortisol cycles. They actually suggested I use a different supplement with similar ingredients that’s marketed 2 ways - as a cortisol manager and as a sleep aid (literally the same pills under 2 different sister brands and 2 labels). But that had soy which was problematic for me. This doesn’t. Or some other unnecessary fillers.This blend of ingredients helps some people with insomnia. Not the case for me. In fact at the start it amped me up a bit and I had to reduce the dose.What I did notice was, I woke up feeling ready to take on the day. I even started waking up early and thinking “hey I think I’ll start the day early.” After I picked my long time boyfriend’s jaw off the floor and convinced him I wasn’t on anything illegal, I became a morning person. Eventually it became easier to shut down at night too, especially taking one before bed.It didn’t solve everything on its own but it’s been an important component in regulating cortisol cycles, for me. New neurotransmitter and hormone tests show a change. I’m told to take a break now and then, switching to other adaptogenics, but I see this being something I use periodically, from now on.

My wife's doctor put her on this. She says that she can tell a difference daily and sleeps better at night. Good value.

Not sure what is going on! I have tried to take this product many times to see if it is a coincidence or not but unfortunately it looks that there is a correlation. Whenever I take a pill in the pm, I end up waking up at 2 am and cant fall back asleep for several hours. I only experience this issue when I take this pill. I never wake up otherwise! I don't understand why it is affecting me this way since I thought it was supposed to do the opposite. Hopefully I am an odd case. I have to stop this supplement! I need my sleep!
