Why two boxes?

+

One box is twenty sachets, which is not quite long enough to know whether something has stuck. Two is eight weeks, long enough for the evening drink to stop being a thing you remember to do and start being part of how the day ends. You also get both flavours, so you find out which one you actually reach for.

What do they taste like?

+

Orange & Yuzu leads with warm, ripe sweet orange, then a crisp citrus twist cuts through. Like a grown-up orange squash. Wild Berry is raspberry and redcurrant, bright and clean with a fine tart edge, closer to Robinsons Fruit & Barley than to a sweet cordial. Neither is sickly. Both are best over ice.

What if I only like one of them?

+

Then you have found your flavour, which is rather the point. You can switch to two of the same on any future delivery, or move to a single box on the Calm subscription. And if neither lands, the 30 day money back guarantee covers you.

Can I pause or cancel?

+

Any time, from your account. The Duo arrives every eight weeks and renews at £29.95 until you cancel. Delay a delivery if you are still working through the last one, change your flavours, or stop altogether. No phone call, no notice period. Or choose one-time if you would rather not subscribe at all.

What is actually in it?

+

150mg of magnesium per sachet in two forms: bisglycinate, which is gentle on the stomach, and citrate, which absorbs quickly. Alongside it, vitamin C, vitamin B6, pantothenic acid, and extracts of lemon balm and chamomile. Sweetened with stevia, no sugar, no melatonin, nothing artificial. Magnesium contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal psychological function and to the normal functioning of the nervous system.

When do I drink it?

+

One sachet stirred into 300ml of cold water, from around 6pm. Most people make it while dinner is on or once the laptop is shut. It is not a bedtime drink you have to time precisely, it is the thing that marks the end of the working day. Ice optional, but it is better cold.

Choose your flavours

Two flavours, both calming.

Same gentle magnesium blend underneath. The only question is which one you'll reach for at the end of the day.

Wild Berry

Like a handful of summer berries.

Wild Berry

Tastes like

  • Strawberry
  • Raspberry
  • Dark berries

A wash of raspberry and redcurrant, bright and clean, with a fine thread of tartness keeping it lifted. Fruity, but never sugared.

Best over ice, your after-work cue to put the day down.

Orange & Yuzu

Like a sunset in a glass.

Orange & Yuzu

Tastes like

  • Sweet orange
  • Yuzu
  • Bright citrus

Warm, ripe sweet orange leads, golden and unhurried, then yuzu arcs through with a crisp, luminous twist. Bright and fading at once.

Best over ice, your after-work cue to put the day down.

Can't choose? Go 50/50 - two packs, one of each flavour.

UK adults don't get the recommended amount of magnesium.

The magnesium gap

6 in 10

UK adults don't get the recommended amount of magnesium. When intake is measured against the RNI, the amount linked to optimal function, roughly 60% of the UK population falls below recommended levels.

What’s in every stick

The hero

Foundation mineral

Magnesium

150mg · bisglycinate & citrate

Two of the most absorbable forms of magnesium, not the cheap oxide most drinks hide behind. Bisglycinate is gentle on the stomach; citrate is quick to take up. It’s the mineral your body runs on, and the one most of us are quietly short on.

Right, I never leave reviews but these have earned one. Started taking two before bed and the wind down just feels easier now. Not knocked out, just calmer. Mornings are less of a write off too.

I love the website and how it explains everything in so much detail, delivery was quick and the product is amazing! I've already noticed a difference in a couple of weeks, going from struggling to falling asleep and waking up in the middle of the night to dropping off quickly, no background mind noise, and sleeping through until the morning. I'm definitely going to subscribe on my next purchase!

Been taking these a just over a week now and I can actually feel my sleep improving. Feels like I’m getting much deeper and uninterrupted sleep as the days pass. Really fast delivery as well!

Honestly a game changer for my sleep! I'm always sceptical with what I put in my body but I'm 2 weeks in and I can already notice the difference. I have the Orange & Yuzu wind down drink every day after work and it just settles me into my evenings (it also tastes very nostalgic! Like Robinsons but tastier!). And then I take two of the sleep capsules every night just before bed and I can feel myself drifting off quicker and quicker every day. I have recommend it to all of my friends and will be sticking to the subscription! Love the customer service too. Great product!!!! Where have you been all my life

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Tear open a sachet, tip it into about 300ml of cold water, stir until it dissolves. Ice optional, but it is better cold. Use more water if you want a lighter flavour. It takes ten seconds and you do not need a shaker.

No. There is no melatonin and nothing sedating in it, so it will not knock you out and you are fine to have it while you are still pottering about. It is a drink you have at the end of the day, not something you take to fall asleep.

Yes, one sachet a day is the stated dose and it is made for daily use. Do not exceed it. Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. Not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and not for anyone under 18.

No, and it never has. Melatonin is a prescription-only medicine in the UK. Calm is built around magnesium, with vitamin C, vitamin B6, pantothenic acid, and lemon balm and chamomile extracts.

If you are on any medication or under medical supervision, check with your doctor or pharmacist before you start. That is not caution for its own sake: magnesium interacts with some medicines, and a pharmacist can tell you in about a minute. Worth checking your other supplements too, so you are not doubling up on magnesium without meaning to.

Yes, Calm is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. It is free from dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, soybeans, fish, crustacean shellfish and sesame. Full allergen information is on our ingredients page.

150mg a sachet, 40% of your daily reference intake, as bisglycinate and citrate rather than the cheaper oxide most drinks hide behind. Bisglycinate is gentle on the stomach, citrate is quick to take up. Magnesium contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal psychological function and to the normal functioning of the nervous system.

Both boxes arrive together every eight weeks, forty sachets in one delivery, and it renews at £29.95 until you cancel. Delay a delivery, change your flavours or stop altogether from your account. No notice period, nothing to phone about. If you would rather not subscribe, take the one-time option instead.

Yes — suitable for vegans and vegetarians, gluten-free, dairy-free, and GMO-free. No artificial colours, preservatives, fillers, or common allergens — just high-bioavailability nutrients and standardised plant extracts, made in UK GMP facilities with third-party testing.

Order before midday Monday to Friday and it goes out the same day on free next-day delivery. After midday or at the weekend, it goes the next working day. You will get a tracking email when it leaves us.
