OUR FORMULATION APPROACH

Our team of formulators brings over three decades of experience, with a strong emphasis on the use of botanicals (medicinal plants). We sought to combine the best of traditional medicine with modern, fact-based research.

Hundreds of ingredients were explored, many with use dating back thousands of years. In tandem, we scoured the scientific literature for strong clinical evidence pointing to an ingredient's potential. 

The resulting formula features clinically validated doses of key ingredients to support both altitude acclimatization and sleep.

Below is a brief overview of each ingredient and why it was included in the formula. For those interested in a deeper dive, check out our blog post with more details on each ingredient, its role in the formula, and research citations.
