Thirty participants, aged between 40 and 50 years (44% women) were randomized into a placebo-controlled cross-over study to assess the effect of Vanizem at different doses. All participants
were healthy adults experiencing day-to-day stress. At the start of the trial each participant scored greater than 18 points on a modified-Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (mHAM-A), which indicated their tendency toward anxious feelings.
Vanizem was found to significantly (p<0.05) improve self-reported perceptions of tension, depression, vigor and total mood disturbance (TMD) score in a dose-dependent manner.
Supplementation with Vanizem at doses over 100mg was seen to improve sleep quality scores after just 2 doses versus placebo (p<0.05). Vanizem subjects found it easier to get to sleep, had better sleep quality as well as improved morning alertness.

Vanizem was found to significantly (p<0.05) improve self-reported perceptions of tension, depression, vigor and total mood disturbance (TMD) score in a dose-dependent manner. Supplementation with Vanizem at doses over 100mg was seen to improve sleep quality scores after just 2 doses versus placebo (p<0.05).
