Brainoa Sleep Hot Cocoa

Brainoa isn't trying to be a supplement you have to choke down. It's a ritual you actually want to make time for. While most supplements focus only on delivering active ingredients, we believe nourishment should feel nourishing—physically and emotionally. That's why we combined neuroscience-backed botanicals with real cocoa and comforting warmth. It's brain health that tastes like a hug, not homework.

Sleep is when your brain does its housekeeping, clearing waste, storing memories, resetting the mood, and recharging your energy for the next day. Do you know that forced sleep deprivation is actually considered a violation of human rights by the United Nations? Without enough quality rest, even the best nutrition or mindfulness routine can only do so much. We created Brainoa because when the brain rests well, everything feels calmer and clearer.

Both, but in the gentlest way. Brainoa isn’t about “knocking you out.” It’s about helping your body and mind remember how to relax. The blend of magnesium glycinate, ashwagandha, and reishi mushroom works together to calm stress and support restorative sleep cycles. You may notice you drift off more easily and wake fewer times during the night.

Like the cocoa you remember, but grown up. Rich, naturally chocolatey, with a subtle earthiness from the adaptogens that feels grounding rather than medicinal. It's not candy-sweet (we don't add sugar), but it has a gentle, dark chocolate, round flavor that invites you to slow down.

Whenever you're ready to shift gears from doing to being. Most people enjoy Brainoa about 60 to 90 minutes before bed, as part of their wind-down routine. But there's no strict rule. If your body craves calm in the late afternoon or after dinner, listen to it. The key is consistency. Your nervous system learns to recognize the ritual, and over time, that first sip becomes a signal: it's safe to rest now.

Absolutely. Brainoa was made for nightly rituals you can look forward to. Every ingredient is natural and non-habit-forming, so you can enjoy it nightly without worry. Think of it as your moment of calm before rest, not a supplement you have to cycle on and off.

Yes, many people notice deeper, more consistent rest after a week or two. The adaptogens and botanicals in Brainoa, like reishi and chamomile, nourish your sleep pathways gradually. With time, your mornings may feel clearer and calmer, the kind of rested energy where coffee feels optional.

Not at all. There’s no melatonin in Brainoa, just nutrients that gently relax your nervous system. That means you’ll wake feeling refreshed, not foggy.

Nope, no added sugar. We never add refined or artificial sweeteners. The natural cocoa and plant ingredients contain trace carbohydrates, which are listed as “1g of sugar” on the label, but they are not added. You can always sweeten your cup to taste with sugar, honey, maple syrup, or your favorite alternative.

I, Cleo, love it simple with just hot water since I’m lactose intolerant. Hamilton likes to mix hot water with a splash of whole milk for extra creaminess. We both enjoy drinking it while it’s hot and without sugar. We’d love to hear how you prepare yours. Maybe a pinch of cinnamon, a drop of vanilla extract, or using oat milk?

After dinner, we dim the lights as a cue to our bodies (and to our daughter Stella) that the day is wrapping up. After tucking Stella in, we prepare a mug of Brainoa Sleep hot cocoa while we share a little bit about our day. In the bedroom, we keep the lights dimmed. I, Cleo, enjoy reading biographies. Hamilton loves audiobooks. We like to drift into our dreams, letting our thoughts wander about the stories we are reading or listening to.
