Hi Sandy, Thank you for trying Qualia Night and I am sorry to hear the formula was not effective for your biochemistry. Please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can assist you in claiming a refund under our money back guarantee. Qualia Night combines 25 carefully selected ingredients. These ingredients were selected for several reasons. Some ingredients support the brain in making and responding to major sleep regulating neurotransmitters (such as GABA), neurohormones (melatonin), and sleep homeostasis drivers (like adenosine and uridine). One of the reasons many people have difficulty getting good sleep has to do with brain mitochondrial performance, so we included several polyphenol-rich food extracts, including olive fruit, blueberry, grape, sesame, and saffron to better support the brain in making energy. Stress, and tension contribute to an inability to relax at night so we included adaptogens and other ingredients that support relaxation and resilience to stress. In a general sense, the body has daytime functions and night time functions. At night, cleanup, restoration and rejuvenation dominate. So we included ingredients that support stem cell processes, brain growth and healing, and antioxidant defenses.
