Fixing the gap
One pathway leaves three gaps
Sleep rarely breaks down from one thing alone. On irregular schedules, late finishes and prolonged stress it breaks down across several systems at once — a mind that won't quiet, a stress response still running, a body that never settles, a night that doesn't restore.
Most products address only one pathway — and leave the other three unchecked.
SOMNO was built the other way round. Eight actives selected across all four pathways, so nothing is left running when the lights go off.
Eight actives, four systems. Which ingredient does what is set out below.
The eight
Every dose on the label
Select an active to see its dose, the form we chose and the job it does. Nothing here is a proprietary blend — the amounts below are what's in every serving.
Overnight recoveryPer serving
3,000 mg
Form
Free-form amino acid
Pillar
Overnight recovery
The temperature signal
Glycine is an inhibitory amino acid involved in lowering core body temperature — the physiological drop that precedes sleep onset. It is the largest ingredient in the formula by weight, at the amount used in the published research rather than a token inclusion.
Stress responsePer serving
600 mg
Form
KSM-66® root extract
Pillar
Stress response
The studied adaptogen, in its studied form
KSM-66® is a standardised root-only extract, and it is the material used in much of the human research on ashwagandha. Root-only is the distinction to look for — cheaper products use leaf or whole-plant material, which has a different compound profile.
Stress responsePer serving
400 mg
Form
Fruiting body extract
Pillar
Stress response
Fruiting body, not mycelium on grain
This is the main quality split in mushroom supplements, and most brands avoid naming it. A large share of the reishi on the market is mycelium grown on grain, which means much of the finished powder is substrate rather than mushroom. SOMNO uses fruiting body extract.
Physical settlingPer serving
300 mg
Form
Standardised extract
Pillar
Physical settling
A botanical with a long evening history
We use a standardised extract rather than milled leaf, so each batch delivers a known quantity of active compound instead of whatever the harvest happened to produce.

Physical settling
Part of the calming layer
One of the better-characterised calming botanicals, and commonly discussed in relation to GABA-A signalling. Standardised rather than ratio-only, so 300 mg is a known quantity every time.
Mental wind-downPer serving
200 mg
Form
Free-form L-isomer
Pillar
Mental wind-down
Calm without sedation
The amino acid found in tea leaves, associated with alpha-wave activity — relaxed alertness rather than drowsiness. 200 mg is the amount used in most of the human research; many products include a fraction of it.
Overnight recoveryPer serving
180 mg
Form
Bisglycinate, chelated
Pillar
Overnight recovery
The form most products get wrong
Most sleep products use magnesium oxide: cheap, and poorly absorbed. SOMNO uses bisglycinate — magnesium chelated to glycine, better absorbed and better tolerated. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Mental wind-downPer serving
75 mg
Form
Isolate
Pillar
Mental wind-down
75 mg that is actually 75 mg
Most products list apigenin while supplying chamomile extract standardised to a low percentage — so the number on the label is a fraction of the apigenin delivered. SOMNO uses the isolate.
Sourcing
Good ingredients start before the formula
Every botanical is sourced from suppliers who farm with the land rather than against it: shade-grown cacao harvested by hand in small batches, ashwagandha root grown without synthetic pesticides, reishi cultivated on whole logs the way it grows in nature rather than rushed on grain substrate.
Traceable origins
Every supplier is audited. We know where each ingredient comes from and how it was grown.
No synthetic pesticides
Every batch screened for 200+ agrochemical residues by a third-party lab before it reaches production.
Small-batch sourcing
We work with specialist growers, not commodity brokers — quality over volume, every time.
Potency preserved
Ingredients sourced at peak maturity and processed at low temperatures to protect the active compounds.
The base
Eight actives have to live in something
Most sleep powders solve the taste problem with artificial sweeteners and flavour masking — because the actives themselves taste of very little that's pleasant, and covering them is the cheapest fix.
We solved it with the base instead of over it.
Cocoa carries bitterness naturally, so nothing has to be hidden. Monk fruit handles sweetness without sugar or a synthetic sweetener.
Two ingredients, both doing a real job — which is why the list on the back of the pouch is as short as it is.
The carrier
Organic cacao
Grown, not made. It brings natural depth, warmth and magnesium of its own — and enough character to carry eight actives without a flavouring system on top.
The sweetener
Monk fruit
Sweetness from a fruit rather than a lab. Zero calories, no glycemic impact, and no artificial sweetener in a product designed to be taken every night.
And what isn't in it
Artificial sweeteners
Monk fruit only.
Artificial flavours
The cocoa is the flavour.
Flavour masking
Nothing to cover up.
Melatonin
No hormonal input.
Proprietary blends
Every dose disclosed.
Our approach
A dose on the label is not the same as a dose that reaches you
Adding an active to a formula is easy. Choosing the form it arrives in is where most products quietly fail — and the customer never finds out, because the label looks identical either way.
A poorly absorbed active is not an active. It passes through and leaves, and the milligrams on the pouch were never the point.
Magnesium is the clearest case. Most sleep products use magnesium oxide: cheap, and poorly absorbed. The label still reads magnesium.
SOMNO uses bisglycinate — magnesium chelated to glycine. Better absorbed, better tolerated, and the carrier molecule is itself one of the eight actives. One decision doing two jobs.
Identifying the need
A real problem, not a market gap
SOMNO started from one documented problem: recovery for people whose sleep window keeps moving.
Choosing the form
The right molecule, in the right format
Chelated minerals, standardised extracts, and a drink rather than a capsule — chosen on absorption and on whether the routine gets kept.
Setting the dose
The amounts that were actually studied
Glycine at 3 g, L-theanine at 200 mg, KSM-66® at 600 mg — the territory of the published research, not a token inclusion.
Questioning the formula
A formula is never finished
The formula reflects the best evidence available now. Our job is to keep challenging it as that evidence moves.
Tested
Trust shouldn't be an ingredient. It should come with evidence
Every SOMNO batch is independently tested and accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis — so you can see the testing behind what you're taking.

01
Every batch tested
Each production batch undergoes independent third-party testing before it ships.
02
Eurofins Certificate of Analysis
Testing documentation from one of the world's leading laboratory groups.
03
Fully disclosed doses
The amount of every active is stated on the label. No proprietary blends.
Certificates of Analysis relate to the specific batch tested. Food supplement. Not a substitute for a varied diet or a healthy lifestyle.
