Sleep, relaxation and recovery

Sleep, fatigue and recovery

Sleep, fatigue and recovery bring together an interest in evening habits, rest and nutrition. In this category, you will find selected vitamins, minerals, amino acids and botanical extracts clearly presented according to their composition and form.

Evening biohacking includes an interest in regular routines, the sleep environment and tracking personal habits. For products, we distinguish between authorised claims for specific nutrients and other substances discussed in this field. A claim about reducing tiredness or supporting nervous system function does not in itself imply an effect on falling asleep or sleep quality.

Health claims authorised in the EU

For selected minerals and vitamins, we use health claims authorised in the European Union:

Magnesium, potassium and vitamin D contribute to normal muscle function.
Magnesium, iodine, copper, potassium and vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and B12 contribute to the normal functioning of the nervous system.
Magnesium, folate and vitamins B2, B3, B5, B6 and B12 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Magnesium, biotin and vitamins B1, B3, B6 and B12 contribute to normal psychological function.

These authorised claims apply exclusively to the specified minerals and vitamins in individual products that meet all conditions of use. They do not constitute a promise to treat insomnia or improve individual sleep stages.

Forms of magnesium and other discussed ingredients

Ingredients encountered in evening rituals and biohacking include:

Magnesium L-threonate and magnesium bisglycinate – forms of magnesium; when comparing products, check the amount of elemental magnesium per daily serving.
Apigenin – a plant compound found, for example, in chamomile.
L-theanine – for example, sourced from green tea.
Glycine
L-tryptophan and 5-HTP
Botanical extracts such as ashwagandha, valerian, lemon balm and hops.

For magnesium, we use only authorised claims for the mineral itself, provided the product meets the relevant conditions. We do not attribute specific effects on sleep or relaxation to individual forms.

Other ingredients, amino acids and botanical extracts are presented solely in terms of their composition, chemical form, concentration, standardisation and origin. In this overview, we do not attribute health effects or medicinal properties to them, nor do we promise the treatment of insomnia or anxiety disorders, or the induction of sleep.

The inclusion of a substance in this overview does not imply its availability in our range or the authorisation of all its forms for use in food supplements.

Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
