MAGNESIUM
Magnesium is a calming mineral that nourishes the nervous system and helps prevent anxiety, fear, nervousness, restlessness, and irritability.
OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS

B-VITAMINS
B vitamins are a group of eight different nutrients particularly B6, B9 (folic acid), and B12, which are essential for the proper function of the nervous system and can help manage anxiety
