The LEKRASET blend includes four plant components selected to complement one another:
- Valerian is one of the best-known plant components for evening use. Its root is traditionally used at times when it is hard to switch off and slow down after a busy day.
- Motherwort is valued for its gentle influence on the nervous system, especially when emotional tension builds up by the evening.
- Hops are included in sleep blends because of their calming properties, and they often appear in the European herbal tradition in precisely this context.
- Peppermint plays a dual role: it improves the taste of the infusion and helps to ease a feeling of stiffness.
The key feature of this blend is that it has no single ‘main’ ingredient. The herbs work together: some help the body and mind to slow down a little, while others create a suitable background for rest. This approach makes the blend gentler in its action than single-ingredient products based, for example, on valerian alone.
