Qualia Night combines 25 carefully selected ingredients. These ingredients were selected for several reasons. Some ingredients support the brain in making and responding to major sleep regulating neurotransmitters (such as GABA), neurohormones (melatonin), and sleep homeostasis drivers (like adenosine and uridine). One of the reasons many people have difficulty getting good sleep has to do with brain mitochondrial performance, so we included several polyphenol-rich food extracts, including olive fruit, blueberry, grape, sesame, and saffron to better support the brain in making energy. Stress, and tension contribute to an inability to relax at night so we included adaptogens and other ingredients that support relaxation and resilience to stress. In a general sense, the body has daytime functions and night time functions. At night, cleanup, restoration and rejuvenation dominate. So we included ingredients that support stem cell processes, brain growth and healing, and antioxidant defenses.
The simplest answer is “any adult who would benefit from getting sounder sleep and feeling more energized, alert, and focused the next day.” That said, Qualia Night was specifically designed for people:
Qualia Night is a dietary supplement designed to support the brain and body in shifting gears from our active daytime physiology into what’s needed to relax, support healthy sleep, and wake feeling refreshed.
There are many dietary supplements available which claim to help people sleep. They typically use herbs intended to produce sleepiness, high doses of melatonin, or both.
No. It’s fine to take a lower dose. A small subset of users prefer taking only 1 to 2 capsules. While 4 capsules is the recommended dose, and is the most common way users take Qualia Night, it is fine to adjust the dose lower as needed to find what works best for you and your chemistry.
Most users notice one or more of the following within the first two weeks of taking Qualia Night: (1) feeling more relaxed at night, (2) experiencing sounder sleep, (3) waking more refreshed and energized, and (4) having more productive days.
We don't have exact calorie data on any of our formulations. Calories are not a standard part of labeling for dietary supplements, because, unlike foods, or macronutrients (e.g., fats, carbohydrates, proteins), vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and herbs don’t have clearly defined calorie counts.
Qualia Night does not contain any ingredients reported to interact negatively with alcohol. But, in general, alcohol interferes with getting high quality sleep, so we don’t recommend having more than 1 or 2 drinks in order to get the most benefits from taking Qualia Night.
Our general recommendation is to take Qualia Night several hours before bedtime, but this is not a hard rule.
