Emotional
Wellness
What Is It?
Emotional Wellness combines amino acids, herbs, and
vitamin cofactors to promote healthy emotional well-being
and cognitive function while moderating occasional stress.*
Uses For Emotional Wellness
Positive Mood: 5-hydroxytryptophan and l-tyrosine
are key precursors for the synthesis of several
neurotransmitters responsible for a healthy emotional
outlook, including serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine and
norepinephrine. These neurotransmitters are involved in
the regulation of endocrine and brain activity in addition
to sleep/wake cycles. Research suggests that l-tyrosine
and Rhodiola rosea may also promote cognitive function
and memory under stressful conditions. A healthy level of
the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA is also associated
with promoting positive mood.*
Relaxation: Research suggests that both GABA and
l-theanine enhance alpha wave production in the brain,
promoting relaxation. Complementary support is provided
by passion flower, which has been used traditionally for
hundreds of years to promote relaxation and help moderate
occasional stress. Vitamin B6 is a cofactor that plays an
important role in supporting positive emotional health.*
What Is The Source?
Pyridoxal 5’phosphate (activated B6), GABA (gamma-
aminobutyric acid), and l-theanine are synthetic.
5-hydroxytryptophan is derived from Griffonia simplicifolia
seeds. l-Tyrosine (free-form) is extracted from soy.
Rhodiola rosea extract is derived from the root and
standardized to contain 3% total rosavins and min. 1%
salidrosides. Passion flower extract is derived from aerial
parts of Passiflora incarnata and standardized to contain
3.5% vitexin. Ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn
dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
