What is Empathic Lion
Empathic Lion is a supplement and lifestyle brand with the mission to help highly sensitive people get the best out of themselves every day. Their first product, called Calm Gummies, was specially developed for highly sensitive people to support overstimulation, stress and intense emotions.
Key Benefits of Calm Gummies, According to Empathic Lion
- Reduces stress and anxiety
- Promotes mental calm and well-being
- Improves sleep quality
- Supports cognitive function
- Helps to balance mood and emotions
- Increased energy and vitality
Ingredients
The active ingredients in the vitamin gummies consist of Ashwagandha, GABA and vitamin B6.
Ashwagandha : is a powerful adaptogen (Adaptogens are a specific category of medicinal plants that harmonize physiological processes in the human body). It helps the body adapt to stress and reduce anxiety. Ashwagandha is known for its ability to lower cortisol, the stress hormone, which contributes to a more relaxed feeling. In addition, Ashwagandha helps maintain emotional stability. The Calm Gummies contain an Ashwagandha extract that comes from the roots of the Ashwagandha plant. This ensures a higher concentration of active ingredients.
GABA : is a neurotransmitter that reduces brain activity and thus has a calming effect. This can provide faster relaxation and a feeling of mental calm, ideal for moments of pressure or tension.
Vitamin B6 : plays an important role in supporting brain function and the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine. This not only helps with mood, but also with memory and concentration. Vitamin B6 supports energy metabolism by helping to convert food into energy. This helps to combat fatigue, while still experiencing a calming effect due to the other ingredients.
Additional information about the Calm Gummies
- Suitable for ages 18 and up
- Available in cherry flavour
First of all I want to say that I am familiar with ashwagandha, as I have been using it for a long time during stressful moments or busy periods in my life. GABA is also not unknown to me and I have taken it before to support having tumbling thoughts and a crowded head.
I was also curious about the effect of these Calm Gummies, since they consist of both ingredients. I started taking the gummies twice a day. In the morning when I woke up and the evening before I went to sleep. This is the maximum amount of gummies per day and you may not exceed this, it is also clearly stated on the packaging. I took them for two weeks in a row to get a clear picture of the effect.
First of all, they smell and taste like cherries. Personally, I like cherry flavor, so this made it easier to take them. They are easy to take, because you can just chew them like candy. The ingredients are all natural, which is a real plus for me. No added sugars, fillers and gluten-free. People who are vegan can also take the gummies, because there are no animal ingredients in them.
I think that the Calm Gummies can certainly be supportive for highly sensitive people who want to experience peace in the head and body. However, you have to take two gummies a day for optimal functioning of ashwaghanda, GABA and vitamin B6. For me, the dosage is a bit low compared to the GABA and ashwaghanda that I already know/took. I also notice this in the strength of the effect. I experience that I have better support with higher amounts, but this can of course differ per person. You do not have to build up a level with both ingredients, the gummies work quite quickly after you have taken them.
Finally
In addition to taking the gummies to prevent overstimulation and stress, you can also use them when you are in a busy period or experience more stress in your life.
It is nice that there has been some thought given to support for highly sensitive people, who often experience stress and overstimulation. There are enough resources on the market that can support relaxation, but not specifically made for highly sensitive people. I would also like to mention that a resource should never be a replacement for a healthy lifestyle. If you are going to use the gummies so that you can continue working a little longer or so that you can participate in the fast-paced society, then it may not be the right intention. The intention is that these gummies are used to support a bit of relaxation and peace of mind, in addition to the adjustments that you may have already made for yourself, such as more rest time, saying no more often, more breaks, clear boundaries, etc.
A disadvantage can be the price. Now natural remedies are often more expensive, so you can't avoid a higher price. But this can influence the choice to buy them or not. I personally find the price on the high side. Another disadvantage can be that the Calm Gummies are only available in cherry flavor. Not everyone likes this flavor.
Always keep listening to your own needs and respond to them where possible. If you still need extra support, the Calm Gummies from Empathic Lion may provide extra support.
