An oil-containing mood formula with 5-HTP and multiple botanical extracts
The archived Zen Mode table listed B6, magnesium, theanine 200 mg, 5-HTP 100 mg and PharmaGABA 100 mg, plus a 2,000 mg blend of caprylic-acid triglycerides, holy basil, ashwagandha, saffron and sceletium. The individual oil and botanical amounts were not disclosed.
Formula assessment
This is a separate mood/relaxation-positioned formula from Smart Mode. Its blend weight cannot be interpreted as 2 g of active botanicals, and branded GABA is not proof that the complete product produces a particular brain effect. The original article inferred both daytime clarity and better sleep from proposed pathways, without establishing either result for the formula.


Ingredient table retained from the original review
The table records the original article’s ingredient names and quantities. It is a historical transcription, not independent testing. Original daily-value percentages are omitted where transcribed because they can be outdated or inconsistent; percentage standardisations attached to ingredients are retained. It should not be used to calculate a dose or substitute for an authenticated label.

Revised conclusion
The archive supports inspection of a mixed oil/botanical product with serotonin-related ingredients. It does not establish treatment of anxiety or depression, predictable sedation or compatibility with prescribed medicines. Avoid reducing this formula to a simple theanine supplement.
The former rating, price-based recommendation and unverified personal-experience claims have been removed. Ingredient studies, marketing mechanisms and a review of a label are different forms of information. None alone establishes how the complete product performs. Before assessing a later version, identify the exact manufacturer label, serving size, quantities and warnings; do not transfer old directions or conclusions between formulas.
