FAQs

Many sleep products rely on ingredients like melatonin, ashwagandha, or valerian root. While they can make you feel drowsy, they often come with downsides. Melatonin can disrupt your natural sleep cycles and leave you groggy. Ashwagandha may interact with thyroid, blood pressure, or hormone pathways, and has even been linked to rare cases of liver injury. Valerian root can cause dizziness, headaches, or withdrawal effects if used long-term, and its safety in pregnancy and other sensitive groups remains unclear.

Portal takes a different approach. Our formula is melatonin-free, non-habit forming, and built to work with your body’s natural rhythms. By using clinically validated compounds that calm the nervous system, reduce cortisol, and deepen restorative stages of sleep, Portal delivers high-quality rest without the risks of traditional sedatives—so you wake sharp, energized, and ready to perform.

Many users feel a calm, relaxed state within the first hour of taking Portal, often describing it as “chill” rather than sedated. Some also report mild drowsiness, though it isn’t as strong or heavy as melatonin or prescription aids. Regardless of how the night feels, the next morning is when the benefits are most clear—higher energy, better focus, and smoother recovery. Portal is not about forcing sleep at any cost, but about improving the quality of rest so you feel and perform better the next day.

No. Portal is formulated to avoid the sedative hangover effect common with melatonin or pharmaceutical sleep aids. Instead of forcing sleep, our ingredients reduce overactive stress signals, relax muscles, and support natural circadian rhythm. You’ll wake up clear-headed, energized, and ready to perform without dragging through the morning.

Yes. Portal is designed as a nightly ritual, not a short-term fix. Because it’s melatonin-free and non-habit forming, it’s safe for consistent use. In fact, the longer you use it, the more you’ll notice compounding benefits: steadier energy, improved recovery, and greater resilience to daily stress.

Even if you fall asleep easily, your sleep may not be as restorative as it should be. Many people spend the night in lighter stages of rest and never reach enough deep or REM sleep, which are critical for recovery, hormone balance, and cognitive performance. Portal helps increase the quality of the hours you’re already getting, turning good sleep into optimized sleep. If you’re not a “bad sleeper,” Portal ensures you’re still unlocking your full potential.

Portal contains four key compounds, each with a proven role in sleep and recovery. Magnesium Glycinate supports muscle relaxation and balances the neurotransmitters that quiet the mind. Glycine lowers core body temperature and improves REM cycles. L-Theanine encourages calm focus by increasing alpha brain waves. Apigenin, a flavonoid found in chamomile, lowers cortisol and amplifies GABA activity for deeper relaxation. Together, these ingredients create a formula that is powerful, clean, and effective.

No. Portal contains no hormones, sedatives, or addictive compounds. It is melatonin-free and designed for nightly use without building tolerance or dependence. Instead of tricking your body, Portal supports your natural processes so your sleep gets stronger the longer you use it.

Yes. Many users take Portal on the road as a way to maintain recovery and even combat jet lag. However, because it’s a powder, we can’t promise you won’t get stopped by TSA—it’s happened to us more than once. We’re working on convenient single-serve packs to make travel even smoother in the future.

Yes. Portal is designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing wellness stack. Many users pair it with electrolytes, protein, or daily vitamins. If you’re already using other sleep aids or prescription medications, consult your healthcare provider to confirm compatibility.

Portal is made with natural, gentle compounds found in nature, including extracts from green tea and chamomile. While it is safe for most adults, those who are pregnant, nursing, on medication, or managing a health condition should consult a doctor before adding Portal to their nightly routine.
