Subject: 30 mg saffron · the dose the trials actually use.
Hi [first_name],
You just bought CALM. Here's what you need to know:
→ Take 2 gummies in the morning. With food is fine.
→ Saffron is slow. Most women feel it in week 2-3 · sleep
changes first · then the patience comes back.
→ It's safe to combine with magnesium · don't combine with
prescription SSRIs without a doctor.
The 30 mg dose matters. Most gummies use 5 mg-to-say-saffron.
That dose has no clinical evidence. We use the dose the
trials actually use.
You're protected: 90-day money-back, no questions.

## What it does

clinically known for at 30 mg/day.
## How to take
2 gummies in the morning. With food. Most women feel it by
week 2-3 · sleep first, patience after.
## What's inside
- Saffron extract (Crocus sativus) 30 mg · standardized to
2% safranal · Iran-sourced
- Vitamin B6 · 1.7 mg

- Magnesium glycinate · 150 mg
## What it isn't

## Who shouldn't take it
If you're on SSRIs, MAO inhibitors, or are pregnant — talk to
your doctor first.
