St. John's Wort, 5-HTP, GABA and B-complex for mood support.
SEROTONIN PATHWAY SUPPORT
5-HTP is the direct precursor to serotonin, bypassing the conversion bottleneck from tryptophan; St. John's Wort modulates serotonin reuptake.
GABA CALM
GABA, L-theanine and B6 all support the major inhibitory neurotransmitter system that drives nervous-system calm.
METHYLATION SUPPORT
B6, B12 and folate provide the methylation cofactors required for neurotransmitter synthesis and homocysteine clearance.
ST. JOHN'S WORT 450 MG
Standardised to 0.3% hypericin, the clinical research dose for mild-to-moderate mood support.

Primary Active Ingredients & Mechanisms
- St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum) 450 mg, standardised to 0.3% hypericin
- The most studied herbal for mild-to-moderate depression. Multiple compounds (hypericin, hyperforin) inhibit serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline reuptake, with effects comparable to SSRIs in mild-to-moderate cases.
- 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan from Griffonia simplicifolia) 20 mg
- Direct precursor to serotonin. Bypasses the tryptophan-to-5-HTP conversion bottleneck and rapidly raises serotonin synthesis.
- GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) 250 mg
- The major inhibitory neurotransmitter. Oral GABA's blood-brain barrier passage is debated, but research supports its peripheral effects and some central activity.
- L-Theanine 50 mg
- Calming amino acid from tea that increases GABA, alpha brainwaves, and supports relaxed alertness without sedation.
- Methylated B-Complex (B6, B12, folate)
- Cofactors for the enzymes that synthesise serotonin, dopamine and GABA. The methylated forms bypass MTHFR-related conversion issues.
- Holy Basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) 100 mg
- Adaptogen used in Ayurvedic medicine for stress resilience and mood balance.
- Valerian Root 50 mg
- Traditional sedative herb that supports GABA signalling and sleep onset.
Who is it for?
Adults working on mild-to-moderate mood balance, those with low energy and emotional resilience under stress, or anyone wanting comprehensive nervous-system support that goes beyond single-herb products. NOT suitable for anyone on prescription antidepressants.
Why use it?
Most mood products use one or two ingredients. NOW stacks the most-evidenced natural mood compounds at therapeutic doses, addressing multiple neurotransmitter pathways simultaneously: serotonin, GABA, methylation cofactors and adaptogens.
When to use it
Take in the morning with breakfast. St. John's Wort effects build over 4 to 8 weeks; this is a long-haul mood support product, not an acute remedy.
How to use it
Two capsules daily with food, typically with breakfast. Effects on mood and stress resilience build over 4 to 8 weeks of consistent use.

Strategic Cross-Sell
New Leaf Magnesium Glycinate 120 Capsules
