Few compounds are more important to overall health than the mineral magnesium. Magnesium is essential for human health and optimal function. It’s involved in over 700 enzymatic reactions, energy production, nerve function and glucose regulation, plays an important role in bone & muscle health and is required to synthesize DNA and RNA —the building blocks of life. Yet many studies show that the majority of the population don’t get enough of this crucial nutrient. Our Magnesium citrate is derived from a natural mineral source of marine origin and crucially is a soluble highly bioactive source of magnesium, easily absorbed and pure.
Native to south-east Asia, ginger has been used a powerful botanical in Ayurvedic medicine for years.
The health benefits of ginger are mainly attributed to a natural compound called gingerols present in the oily resin found in the root.
Ginger is also helpful for easing nausea associated with travel and morning sickness and it bring a gentle level of chilli style heat to our Inspired Collagyn.
Myo-Inositol
Sometimes referred to as Vitamin B8, this simple compound is quickly broken down to be used as an energy source in the body without causing a spike in blood sugar. Inositol is essential in the process of building cell membranes and is a “secondary messenger” in your central nervous system, known to increase the impact of neurotransmitters in your brain supporting mood health. Myo-inositol is also studied for increasing insulin sensitivity, supporting our bodies natural energy balance and has been shown to impact circadian rhythms which may help to regulate sleep.
Find this intelligent compound in our True Nightcap formulation.
Vitamin C
Not all vitamin C’s are created equal. The most common version of vitamin C, called ascorbic acid, has a very low absorption rate and often triggers digestive disturbance.
So we formulate our products with a gentle on the gut, buffered form of vitamin C called magnesium ascorbate which has far superior absorption than standard ascorbic acid.
Magnesium ascorbate is one of our most important ingredients in terms of health benefits, daily wellbeing, collagen renewal and supporting skin cell protection.
Choline
Similar to vitamin D, a nutrient called choline is hard to obtain through a plant-based diet which is why many health organisations are promoting vegan awareness for the risk of choline deficiency.
Studies indicate that this nutrient is important for neurotransmitter balance, cardiovascular health and the maintenance of normal liver function.
To help support daily wellbeing for those of you following a plant-based diet we’ve included a form of vegan choline (L-Choline Bitartrate) in our Radiant Collagyn.
Zinc Citrate
Best known for supporting immune health, this essential mineral is needed to perform hundreds of important functions in the body. From helping with hormone production, growth and repair, improved immunity, and normal digestion, zinc is the second-most-abundant trace mineral in the human body. Our zinc citrate is a well absorbed, highly bioavailable form.
You can find our highly bioavailable Zinc Citrate in our True Nightcap and newly formulated Radiant blend.
L-Glycine
L-Glycine is both an amino acid and neurotransmitter. This means that in the body it forms proteins and plays a role in the levels of hormones in the brain.
It is widely considered to be one of the most important amino acids for the body, and thus we have high requirements for it. Whilst the body can produce glycine on its own, incorporating it into our diet can yield numerous benefits. It is used in various muscle, metabolic and cognitive functions.
Approximately 80% of the body’s glycine is used for protein synthesis, contributing to the formation of several important protein structures, including collagen. Glycine is also essential for the production of glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant.
L-Glycine is thought to have soothing effects on the central nervous system, helping to improve sleep quality as a result.
For these reasons, you will find this nutrient incorporated into our intelligent formulas, True Nightcap and Radiant Collagyn.
A closer look
Whats happening whilst you sleep
During sleep, the body repairs tissues, muscles, and cells. Nutrients like magnesium and myo-inositol support relaxation and nervous system balance, while zinc aids immune repair, and choline enhances cellular regeneration. Vitamin C supports collagen formation and repair, helping keep tissues healthy. Each nutrient collectively enhances restorative sleep functions.
Ginger - digestion for sleep
Soothing and warming, ginger is the ideal end-of-day ingredient, supporting digestion and easing post-meal discomfort. Its natural compounds, like gingerol, enhance digestive enzyme activity and reduce gas buildup, helping you unwind and feel comfortably relaxed before bedtime.
Marine Magnesium story
We have thoughtfully selected a highly bioavailable form of magnesium, derived from seawater and red algae from the pristine Irish Sea. This choice ensures exceptional potency while reflecting our dedication to your health.
More than sleep support
True Nightcap’s synergy of ingredients are great for supporting relaxation and sleep, but no need to worry about feeling drowsy. Unlike sedatives, they work by supporting the nervous system, promoting calm, and aiding recovery processes. This makes True Nightcap versatile enough for any time you feel you need some relaxation or immune support, not just before bed.

Love this Night Time Ritual
"I am absolutely blown away by my experience of True Nightcap. This has made a huge difference to the quality and length of sleep I am now managing. I was regularly managing only 4 hours a night if I was lucky with lots of interruptions throughout the night. As soon as I started taking True nightcap, I found myself sleeping 7-9 hours with less interruptions throughout the night, leaving me better refreshed for my working day. I have highly recommended to friends and colleagues whilst also puchasing the sachets for when I am travelling for work and leisure. The taste is actually quite comforting, ginger and lemon and works as a lovely hot night-time drink. Very relaxing, reminds me of the lovely teas they serve at high end spas after your treatment. I initially suffered with a little wind, during the night which was more amusing than uncomfortable."
— Bea P. (5/5)
It works!
"Has a nice flavour and it makes me fall asleep so quickly! So far so good!"
