Cortisol, also known as the stress hormone, allows the body to react to a stressful situation.

Cortisol also plays a role in the normal functioning of the body and in sleep management.When a person is stressed, his cortisol level remains high and impacts the quality of sleep. It causes insomnia or difficulties falling asleep.


Lactium®, thanks to its relaxing effects, reduces the secretion of cortisol and helps you fall asleep.

Thanks to its mechanism of action on the central nervous system, Lactium® reduces stress-related symptoms and helps to cope with occasional (exams, smoking cessation...) and daily stress (stomach aches, anxiety, sleep disorders...). 

This unique ingredient has shown the same effects as molecules acting on the benzodiazepine (BZD) site of the GABAA receptor in the brain. Lactium® has been shown to act 90 to 120 minutes after consumption in humans.


Nevertheless, the real feeling of well-being after taking Lactium® generally appears after 1 to 2 weeks of supplementation, depending on the dosage.

Pep2Dia® is a whey protein hydrolysate containing an active dipeptide AP (Alanine-Proline) that inhibits the activity of the enzyme alpha-glucosidase and increases the secretion of GLP-1.

It is designed for people who want to maintain both their physical fitness and blood glucose levels thanks to its carbohydrate-blocking function.Its effectiveness has been scientifically proven, and Pep2dia® has no toxicity or side effects.
