Evening · 60–90 min before bed
PRE-SLEEP is built around sleep architecture , not sedation. Phosphatidylserine, KSM-66 ashwagandha and magnesium glycinate support the cortisol drop, GABAergic tone and physiological wind-down that produce real REM and NREM quality. Capsule format, no melatonin.

02 · THE 24-HOUR SYSTEM
PRE-SLEEP closes the loop
Sleep quality isn't just a sleep problem, it's how the rest of the day was regulated. PRE-SLEEP supports the dim-light melatonin onset window so the body's own architecture can do its work.

03 · WHAT BETTER FEELS LIKE
Real sleep, not synthetic sleep
FALLING ASLEEP
A noticeably shorter gap between lying down and going under. The mind quiets without feeling chemically pushed.
THROUGH THE NIGHT
Fewer 3am wake-ups. The wearable shows it: more time in deep sleep, more time in REM, less in light.
THE NEXT MORNING
No grogginess. No drag. The "how did I sleep" question has an answer you actually want to hear.
05 · BUILD THE DAY
Pair PRE-SLEEP with the rest of the system
RISE handles the morning. The full circadian loop closes when you cover the afternoon trough and the pre-sleep window.
AFTERNOON · 13:00–17:00
+£45Add FLOW
Caffeine-free nootropic for the circadian trough. Lion's mane, rhodiola, NALT — without disrupting sleep architecture.

06 · HONEST ANSWERS
The questions everyone asks first
Will it knock me out?
No. PRE-SLEEP isn't a sedative. It supports the body's own wind-down, cortisol drop, GABAergic tone, and magnesium availability, so your sleep architecture can do its work.
Is this just melatonin?
No melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone produced endogenously in response to dim light. PRE-SLEEP supports the conditions for that, rather than replacing it.
Why capsules and not a drink?
Phosphatidylserine and KSM-66 are best delivered in encapsulated form for stability and dose precision. Liquid extracts of these actives are unreliable at clinical doses. Also liquid pre-bed can often cause sleep fragmentation.
When exactly should I take it?
60 to 90 minutes before your intended sleep time, with water. Pair it with dim light and screens down for the cleanest result..
Will I feel groggy in the morning?
No. Because the formula isn't sedating, there's no "sleep medication hangover". Most users report waking clearer than usual, not heavier.
Can I take it with prescribed sleep medication?
Speak to your prescriber. Adaptogens and magnesium can interact with sedatives, anxiolytics and thyroid medication. We don't recommend stacking without clinical advice.
04 · WHY IT'S FORMULATED THIS WAY
Three ingredients do the heavy lifting
The rest of the formula supports them. Full label and references at the bottom of the page.
DOSE 400mg (50% STANDARDISED)
Phosphatidylserine
A phospholipid component of neuronal cell membranes. The 50% standardisation provides 200mg of pure PS — at the upper end of supplemental dose ranges studied in the cognitive and HPA-axis literature.
Mechanism: phospholipid / membrane integrity
DOSE 400mg (KSM-66 12:1)
KSM-66 ashwagandha
The most clinically studied standardised ashwagandha extract — a 12:1 root specification. Withanolides are the principal characterised active compounds, present at 5%+ in the KSM-66 standardisation.
Mechanism: standardised root extract
DOSE 200mg (FROM 1000mg GLYCINATE)
Magnesium glycinate
Bisglycinate form selected for absorption profile and tolerance, without the GI reaction common with cheaper magnesium oxide. Magnesium contributes to normal nervous system function and normal muscle function.
Mechanism: NMDA + GABA receptor activity
SUPPORTING CAST — L-THEANINE, PEA, ZINC, EVENING B-COMPLEX SUPPORTING CAST — THREE MECHANISMS BEHIND THE HEADLINES CLOSE
01 / WIND-DOWN
GABAergic support during the transition into sleep
L-theanine
200mg
Amino acid found in tea (Camellia sinensis). Crosses the blood-brain barrier and modulates the GABAergic and glutamatergic systems.
02 / RECOVERY
Inflammation, immune and metabolic support overnight
Levagen+ PEA
300mg
Palmitoylethanolamide with LipiSperse delivery system for enhanced bioavailability. PEA is an endogenous fatty acid amide active in the endocannabinoid system.
Zinc picolinate
15mg · 150% NRV
Picolinate form selected for absorption profile. Zinc contributes to normal cognitive function and normal immune system function.
03 / OVERNIGHT B-COMPLEX
Deliberately tapered evening dose at 15% NRV
- Niacin (B3)2.4mg
- Pantothenic acid (B5)0.9mg
- Riboflavin (B2)0.21mg
- Vitamin B60.21mg
- Thiamine (B1)0.165mg
- Folic acid (B9)30µg
- Biotin7.5µg
- Vitamin B120.375µg
B-complex contributes to normal psychological function. PRE-SLEEP runs at 15% NRV — distinct from RISE's 100% NRV — to support overnight metabolism without front-loading the morning.
