A targeted blend of B vitamins and soothing botanicals to balance and protect you against the stresses of everyday life. Our stress formula contains magnesium and B vitamins, proven to reduce tiredness and fatigue, whilst also promoting normal psychological function.

Magnesium

Magnesium is an essential mineral that many of us find ourselves deficient in. Despite the fact that adequate magnesium levels are responsible for everything from regulating sleep, to helping us recover from exercise, to helping us feel good, this powerful mineral is often overlooked as an essential component of a healthy diet.

A lovely tea that was a reasonable price too. I have seen more of their range in Holland and Barrett and I am looking forward to trying others. Really liked this and with some deep breathe found myself feeling calmer after a hectic day.

Boil the kettle, sit back and enjoy the flavours of this unique drink, letting it soothe and relax you before the bedtime.
