Verifiable Science

Emotional Wellness combines amino acids, herbs and vitamin cofactors to promote healthy emotional well-being and cognitive function while moderating occasional stress. 5-hydroxytryptophan and l-tyrosine are key precursors for the synthesis of several neurotransmitters responsible for a healthy emotional outlook, including serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. These neurotransmitters are involved in the regulation of endocrine and brain activity in addition to sleep/wake cycles.¹ Research suggests that l-tyrosine may also support cognitive function and memory under stressful conditions.² A healthy level of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA is also associated with positive mood.³ Research suggests that both GABA and l-theanine enhance alpha wave production in the brain, promoting relaxation.^4,5 Complementary support for relaxation is provided by passionflower, while Rhodiola rosea supports cognitive and mental function under stressful conditions.^6,7 Vitamin B₆ is a cofactor that plays an important role in supporting positive emotional health.^8‡
