Why did you formulate this with magnesium instead of melatonin? Which is better in a sleep aid?

The doctors behind our formula very intentionally chose magnesium over melatonin for a couple of reasons: For one, melatonin is not pregnancy- or breastfeeding-safe, and it was important to us to provide support for moms and moms-to-be who need it most. For another, since melatonin is the hormone our brain produces to induce sleepiness, taking more melatonin can directly impact our sleep-wake cycle—which can lead to grogginess and other undesirable side effects. Instead, studies suggest that magnesium acts as a precursor for our natural melatonin production, relaxing the body and setting the stage for better sleep. And our formula is safe for pregnancy and breastfeeding, too.

Is this safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Yes, the ingredient amounts in our Sleep Support* were specifically designed to be combined with any Perelel pack and to be taken safely throughout pregnancy and postpartum.

Are Perelel products 3rd Party Tested?

Yes, we complete third-party testing on all of our products to confirm purity and potency. All of our vitamins are made in FDA Registered and Inspected Facilities, which meet FDA 21 CFR 111 guidelines and are also cGMP Certified. All raw materials for our vitamins are tested directly prior to production to ensure their purity and quality. COAs are performed on every batch of manufactured vitamins to ensure final product integrity and quality, which includes testing for heavy metals, microbes, allergens and contaminates. We then complete third-party testing for heavy metals, microbes and potency to confirm our products are safe under USP standards. In addition, our pre and postnatal formulas have earned us certification from the Clean Label Project, a leading nonprofit that sets one of the industry's highest standards for consumer transparency. We’re proud to have earned Clean Label Project’s highest honor, the Purity Award!If you're interested in learning more, check out our blog post here on heavy metals.

What does Sleep Support* taste like?

Our Sleep Support* powder has a soothing citrus flavor profile—perfect for winding down.

What can I mix Sleep Support Powder into?

We formulated Sleep Support* to be mixed with warm water, but cold water can be used as well. You can also add this powder to any liquid such as juice or a smoothie. Enjoy!

Will this make me drowsy in the morning?

Our doctors formulated Sleep Support with a research-backed Magnesium Blend, which promotes gentle relaxation and sleep. When taken the night before, it should not cause next-day drowsiness.

Nice taste and magnesium supplement during pregnancy
I enjoy the taste of this drink every night before bed. It is the only form of magnesium that works for me. Others made me restless.

Best Magnesium Blend I’ve Found
This is the best magnesium blend I’ve found for sleep. I wasn’t sure about it at first but mixing it with warm water at night like a hot tea or in hot chamomile tea makes all the difference. It mixes so much better warm and genuinely has been helping with me with my sleep (perimenopause & anxious special needs parent over here). After trying Ritual’s Magnesium Sleep Support I came back and repurchased this and will be keeping this in my regimen. I didn’t like the taste of theirs at all!
