And, breathe! Give your brain a break with the soothing support of science and nature. Inessa’s unique formula for calm contains seven research-backed ingredients in relevant doses and in their highest-quality forms. Each one plays a specific role in calming your nervous system, helping you navigate daily challenges with ease.
Great for those who struggle to switch off at night, it also helps support sleep, particularly when paired with Inessa Magnesium.
Ashwagandha - This clever adaptogen supports relaxation and emotional balance, while keeping you feeling mentally sharp.
L-theanine from green tea - Caffeine-free, L-theanine is shown to boost brain function, improve mood and maintain healthy sleep patterns.
Saffron - Contributes to emotional balance and helps to maintain a positive mood.
Lemon balm - A nervine herb used to support clarity and cognitive function in many ancient cultures.

Feel like you can never switch off? So does your nervous system. Our always-on culture is wreaking havoc with the delicate balance between the calm side of our nervous system (parasympathetic) and our alert side (sympathetic), with feelings of overwhelm and burnout the end result.
Good quality sleep, exercise and a wholesome diet can help when you’re feeling the frazzle. But to complement these healthy stress management techniques, why not a unique blend of nature’s most soothing ingredients?
The adaptogen ashwagandha is a potent herbal supplement used for centuries in the Indian Ayurvedic system of medicine. Extensively studied, it works wonders on stress, helping your body cope with daily pressures while supporting a healthy response to feelings of overwhelm. But its benefits extend beyond calmness. Ashwagandha is known to bolster memory and cognitive function, keeping your mind sharp and focused.
Containing the exact dose of organic ashwagandha shown to be most effective in clinical studies, plus safe, effective doses of botanical herbs, energising B-vitamins and antioxidants, Relax+Calm lets you harness the combined power of ancient wisdom and modern science.
With a clever combination of ingredients known to be effective when taken together, this unique formula blends ashwagandha, L-theanine, saffron , lemon balm, chamomile, biotin and vitamin B5, to promote relaxation, improve sleep, and sharpen focus. Taken daily, they can be your secret weapon for inner balance and resilience, no matter what life throws at you.
Ashwagandha, otherwise known as Indian ginseng, is a herb that has long been a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine. Because of its powerful natural calming properties, it has also become a popular supplement. But there are other nutrients and botanicals that can enhance its soothing action on the body during periods of mental stress and anxiousness, which is why the Inessa team have combined ashwagandha with six other effective ingredients into one formula, without compromising on the effective dosing found in single nutrient products. It can be taken alone to support daily resilience, or alongside magnesium, which is its perfect partner in supporting quality sleep.
