Why downshift?

Most sleep products lean on melatonin or hide doses inside a blend. We did the opposite: no added melatonin, no proprietary blend, every milligram printed.

Glycine 3,000 mg · KSM-66® ashwagandha 600 mg · magnesium bisglycinate 200 mg · L-theanine 200 mg · apigenin 50 mg · saffron extract 28 mg. Tart cherry flavor.

Preliminary formula. Final doses will always be printed on the box.

How to enjoy

Tear one stick, stir it into a glass of water in the evening, and make it the last thing in your routine. One stick a day.

Questions

Does it have melatonin?

No melatonin is added. Tart cherry naturally contains trace amounts.

Does it have caffeine or stimulants?

No. It's caffeine-free. It doesn't cancel the caffeine you already had, so cutting back late in the day still helps.

When does it launch?

The date isn't set yet. Waitlist members hear first and get a $10 credit.

How much will it cost?

The price isn't final. We'll announce it before launch.

Has it been tested?

Third-party testing of the finished product is being arranged with our manufacturer. We'll share results once we have them.

Is it safe with medication?

Ask your doctor or pharmacist first if you take medication, use other sleep products, or are pregnant or breastfeeding. Not for anyone under 18.
