PhytoCalm® Forte is a carefully formulated blend designed to support relaxation and emotional balance. At its core is Griffonia seed extract, a natural source of 5-HTP, combined with vitamin B6, which acts as an essential cofactor in its utilisation. This synergy helps the body maintain its natural production of neurotransmitters associated with calmness and balanced mood. The inclusion of magnesium L-threonate — a highly absorbable form of magnesium — further supports relaxation by contributing to normal psychological function and helping to ease everyday tension.
The formula also features Montmorency cherry, a fruit traditionally valued for its naturally occurring phytonutrients that support restful balance at the end of the day. Alongside this are well-known calming botanicals including passion flower, lavender, valerian root and California poppy. These herbs have long histories of use in supporting a relaxed nervous system and promoting a sense of ease, making them ideal botanical companions within a relaxation-focused blend.
Together, these ingredients create a comprehensive supplement for those seeking a natural way to unwind, manage daily stress and support a calm, balanced mood. Fully vegan and free from unnecessary additives, PhytoCalm® Forte offers a clean, well-rounded approach to supporting relaxation as part of a healthy daily routine.

PhytoCalm® Forte contains the following herbs and minerals:
Griffonia Seed - this West African plant is known for its high concentration of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). 5-HTP is a naturally occurring amino acid that serves as a precursor to serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in mood, sleep, appetite, and pain sensation. This unique property of the Griffonia Seed and its consequent potential health benefits, particularly in relation to relaxation and aiding restful nights, has made it an object of interest in the field of herbal and natural supplements. Vitamin B6 is also added as it is an essential cofactor for the enzyme (aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase) that converts 5-HTP to serotonin, a neurotransmitter that regulates mood, anxiety, and restful nights.
Magnesium L-threonate is a form of magnesium that is believed to have unique benefits for brain health. Magnesium is a vital mineral involved in over 300 enzyme reactions in the body, with roles in nerve function, muscle control, blood pressure regulation, and much more. Magnesium L-threonate is distinguished by its ability to cross the blood-brain barrier more effectively than other forms of magnesium, potentially conferring specific benefits to cognitive function and restful nights.
Montmorency cherries, also known as tart or sour cherries, are a type of cherry native to certain parts of Europe, southwest Asia, and North America. These cherries have been gaining attention for their potential health benefits, particularly in relation to relaxation and restful nights, due to their unique nutritional content which can help the body in its own production of melatonin. It can also help to reduce stress in the body.
Passionflower, or Passiflora incarnata, is a perennial climbing vine native to the south eastern United States but now grown worldwide. It's well-known for its strikingly beautiful flowers and its fruits, but it's also been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its potential health benefits. Passionflower has gained attention for its possible calming effects with its bioactive compounds, including flavonoids and alkaloids, which are believed to elevate GABA levels, reducing anxiety and promoting a sense of calm and relaxation.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a flowering plant in the mint family that's widely grown across Europe, particularly in Bulgaria, France, and the UK. It's well known for its vibrant purple flowers and its distinctive, calming scent. Lavender has been used for centuries in traditional medicine, and it's increasingly studied for its potential health benefits, especially for relaxation and aiding restful nights.
Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a perennial flowering plant native to Europe and Asia. The root of this plant has been used for centuries in traditional medicine due to its potential sedative and calming effects. It is often taken as a supplement in capsule or tincture form, and it is also used in teas. The most well-known benefit of valerian root is its potential to aid restful nights. Valerian root contains a number of compounds that achieve this and which reduce the amount of time it takes to fall asleep.
California Poppy (Eschscholzia californica) is a perennial and annual plant native to the United States and Mexico. Known for its bright orange flowers, it's not just a beautiful plant but also has a history of use in Native American traditional medicine. The primary use of California poppy in herbal medicine is as a calming agent for the relief of sleeplessness and insomnia. The plant contains a variety of natural compounds, including alkaloids, that are thought to have sedative and sleep-aiding effects.
