What Is a Smart Sleep Patch?
A smart sleep patch is a transdermal system that delivers sleep-supporting compounds gradually through the skin overnight. Unlike oral supplements, which pass through the digestive system, patches deliver ingredients directly into the bloodstream at a steady rate, avoiding the peaks and crashes associated with pills or capsules.
Smart Sleep Patches are designed to support your body's natural sleep processes — not to override them with harsh sedatives. Instead of forcing unconsciousness, this formula works with your nervous system, neurotransmitters, and circadian rhythm to guide you into genuine, restorative sleep. Each ingredient has a specific purpose, working together to promote calm, reduce night-time restlessness, and facilitate more profound, more stable sleep.
Melatonin (5 mg) — The Sleep Signal
Melatonin acts as your body's internal clock. It signals your brain when it's time to shift from alertness to sleep. Modern lighting, screens, stress, and irregular routines can all inhibit the natural release of melatonin. Taking melatonin supplements can:
- Trigger sleep onset by signalling to your brain that it's time for rest.
- Help manage delayed sleep cycles caused by shift work, travel, or irregular schedules.
- Reduce night-time wake-ups linked to circadian disruption. Think of melatonin as the on-switch that starts the sleep process.
Magnesium (3 mg, as Magnesium Malate) — Supports the Nervous System and Muscle Relaxation.
Magnesium helps soothe the nervous system, relax tight muscles, and support healthy sleep signals in the brain. We choose magnesium in the malate form because research suggests it may offer higher bioavailability compared to some other common forms.
Note on dosage: While 3 mg may seem low compared to oral supplements (which typically range from 200–400 mg), transdermal delivery bypasses digestive absorption losses. This enables smaller amounts to reach target tissues more effectively.
Choosing the right form of magnesium is essential to us because we want every ingredient in this patch to perform its function — especially where it matters most: in your brain and nervous system.
L-Tryptophan (3 mg) — The Natural Sleep Precursor
L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that your body uses to produce serotonin, which then converts to melatonin. This natural pathway — tryptophan → serotonin → melatonin — explains how your body produces its own sleep chemicals.
Tryptophan supports:
• Emotional calm and mood stability
• Nervous system regulation
• Natural sleep onset
• Overall serotonin production
Instead of forcing sleep, tryptophan helps your body naturally produce its own sleep chemicals.
5-HTP (1 mg) — Supports deeper sleep
5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is the immediate metabolic step between tryptophan and serotonin. By supporting serotonin levels more directly, 5-HTP helps:
• Calm racing thoughts before bed
• Reduce stress-related insomnia
• Support deeper sleep stages
• Enhance emotional wind-down in the evening.
Together, tryptophan and 5-HTP support the brain chemistry necessary for both relaxed and restorative sleep.
Valerian Root (5 mg) — Traditional Support for the Nervous System
Valerian root (Valeriana officinalis) has been used for centuries as a natural sleep aid. It contains compounds that may interact with GABA receptors in the brain — the same system targeted by many prescription sleep medicines, but through gentler, natural ways.
Valerian is traditionally recognised for supporting:
• Nervous system calming
• Lowered mental activity
• Simpler transition to sleep
Instead of sedating, valerian helps the brain naturally downshift into rest.
Hops Flower (4 mg) — Enhances Sleep Depth & Continuity
Hops (Humulus lupulus) are traditionally paired with valerian because the two botanicals complement each other. While valerian helps you relax into sleep, hops support sleep maintenance.
Hops might assist you:
• Sleep longer without disruptions
• Reduce restlessness at night.
• Support longer, more restful sleep cycles
Why This Formula Works Better When Used Together
Each ingredient in the Smart Sleep Patch targets a different aspect of sleep biology.
• Your body clock: Melatonin
• Nervous system support: Magnesium malate, valerian root
• Brain chemistry support: L-tryptophan, 5-HTP
• Sleep depth and continuity: Hop flowers
This formula provides your body with the building blocks to do what it already knows how to do — sleep deeply, naturally, and well.
