The Nue Co. Stress Relief
Ashwagandha-based supplement clinically shown to reduce cortisol levels. A great complement to therapy for stress and anxiety management.
A blend of ashwagandha, magnesium, and L-theanine aimed at people whose stress shows up as poor sleep and 3am wakes. The dose of ashwagandha (KSM-66, 600mg) matches the evidence base, many cheaper brands under-dose it to hit a price point.

Where this fits in your plan
What you are actually buying
Consumer supplements bought direct from the brand and delivered to you, usually as a monthly pack, a bottle of 30 to 90 days, or a subscription you can pause. None of them require a prescription, and none of them replace a blood test or a diagnosis.
How supplements pricing works
The price shown is the brand's own list price for a single unit or a month's supply at the time we reviewed it, including UK delivery where the brand offers it free. Subscriptions are usually cheaper per month than one-off orders, and multi-month packs are priced per pack rather than per month, so check the unit you are adding to the basket. The figure on this page, £35, follows the same rule.
Who this suits, and who it does not
Useful if you already know what you are correcting, whether that is a nutrient gap flagged by a test, a symptom pattern you have discussed with a clinician, or a diet that is genuinely patchy. Less useful as a first move: if you are unsure what is wrong, a screening or a consultation will tell you more than a stack will. Anyone pregnant, breastfeeding, on prescribed medication, or managing a thyroid or liver condition should check interactions before starting.
What happens after you click through
You order direct from the brand. Give any supplement six to eight weeks before you judge it, keep one variable at a time, and take the label to your next consultation so it can be read alongside anything you are prescribed.
Prices and inclusions are checked at review and change without notice, always confirm on the provider's own page. Nothing here is a diagnosis or a treatment recommendation, if you want one, speak to a specialist or build a pathway.
