Question 1

Why this formulation and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

A multi-ingredient approach to sleep-wake support
Most magnesium sleep powders contain magnesium as a single active. SleepX combines five actives in one evening serve: magnesium bisglycinate, ornithine monohydrochloride, lutein, zeaxanthin, and Sensoril™ Ashwagandha (a trademarked Withania somnifera extract from Natreon, Inc., using both root and leaf). The formula is naturally coloured by the lutein and zeaxanthin it contains — these carotenoids also give the product its functional rationale around blue light and eye adaptation.
Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium bound to the amino acid glycine. The bisglycinate form keeps the serve size practical — one 5.7 g scoop delivers 300 mg of elemental magnesium — and is generally gentler on the digestive system than oxide or citrate forms, which is relevant for an evening formula where digestive comfort matters.
Magnesium and muscle relaxation
Magnesium supports healthy muscle contraction function and muscle relaxation. At 300 mg elemental magnesium per serve, SleepX provides a meaningful daily amount of this mineral in a form that is well suited to an evening routine.
Nervous system and sleep-wake cycle support
The combination of magnesium and Sensoril™ Ashwagandha supports nervous system function and helps establish, restore, and reset the sleep-wake cycle. Sensoril™ is a standardised Withania somnifera extract; each serve provides 125 mg of dry root extract and 125 mg of dry leaf extract, totalling 250 mg of the trademarked blend.
Eye health and light adaptation
Lutein (20 mg per serve) and zeaxanthin (4 mg per serve) are carotenoids that support eye health and aid eye adaptation to variations in light intensity, including the kind of blue-spectrum light exposure that is common in the evening hours before sleep.

Question 2

When should I consider this product?

Accepted Answer

This formulation provides support for sleep-wake cycle function, muscle relaxation, and eye health. It makes sense if you&#8217;re:

An adult who wants to support healthy sleeping patterns as part of a consistent evening routine.
Someone in a life stage or work pattern — such as shift work or frequent travel — where maintaining a regular sleep-wake cycle is a priority.
Someone who spends significant evening time on screens and wants nutritional support for eye adaptation to light variations alongside sleep-wake support.
Looking for a magnesium powder that also provides nervous system support and is free from gluten, dairy, soy, and artificial additives.

⚠️ Not suitable for: Pregnant women without prior consultation with a healthcare professional. Not designed for children — consult your healthcare professional before use in children. Consult your healthcare professional before use if you are taking blood pressure medications or any other prescription medicines, or if you have a pre-existing condition.

Question 3

How do I use this product?

Accepted Answer

Adults: Take 1 scoop (5.7 g) mixed into 200 mL of water, once daily in the evening, or as directed by your healthcare professional. Each container provides 20 serves.

Question 4

What does SleepX actually contain?

Accepted Answer

Each 5.7 g serve provides magnesium bisglycinate (300 mg elemental magnesium), 400 mg ornithine monohydrochloride, 20 mg lutein, 4 mg zeaxanthin, and 250 mg Sensoril™ Ashwagandha (125 mg root extract and 125 mg leaf extract). It is tropical flavoured and sweetened with steviol glycosides.

Question 5

Why does this contain lutein and zeaxanthin?

Accepted Answer

Lutein and zeaxanthin are carotenoids that support eye health and aid eye adaptation to variations in light intensity. They also give the powder its natural colour. The amounts per serve — 20 mg lutein and 4 mg zeaxanthin — are the functional amounts in the formula, not trace colouring quantities.

Question 6

I get loose stools from magnesium. Will this be the same?

Accepted Answer

Magnesium bisglycinate is magnesium bound to glycine. It tends to be gentler on the digestive system than magnesium oxide or some citrate forms. If you do experience loose stools, consult your healthcare professional about adjusting your dose.

Question 7

Is SleepX suitable if I&#8217;m pregnant or breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

Do not take during pregnancy without consulting a healthcare professional. If breastfeeding, speak with your healthcare professional before use.

Question 8

Can children take SleepX?

Accepted Answer

SleepX is formulated for adults. Consult your healthcare professional before giving any supplement to children.
