Tactical Support
A bioactive decapeptide called alpha-casozepine that can induce contentment, calm and sleep by increasing the activity of the neurotransmitter Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA).
The Game-Changing Nutrient
Babies naturally secrete digestive enzymes that release a calming pool of peptides from milk. As our digestive system matures, we lose that ability. Researchers have worked to break the bonds of milk using tryptic hydrolysis technique, recreating the magic of mother’s milk in supplement form to zap stress and sleep disturbance.
Form
A patented, all natural, bio-active peptide derived from cow’s milk
Dose
150mg
per SNOOZE tablet
Anti-Stress
Increases the activity of Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter. It blocks specific signals in the central nervous system and calms the brain
Anti-Anxiety
Shown to reduce anxiety in stressed conditions
Increase Sleep Time
More hours of sleep recorded at night
Increase Sleep Efficiency
Improvement in the ratio of total time spent asleep compared to time spent in bed, particularly after 4 weeks of use
Reduce Cortisol Release
Decreases plasma cortisol levels after acute stress and chronic anxiety, countering negative physiological effects of cortisol
Non-Addictive
Unlike benzodiazepine molecules, Lactium® does not exhibit dependence or habituation
Non-Drowsy
As a natural bioactive, Lactium® does not have any side effects or toxicity
Facts & Figures
We are keeping up to speed with the research on Lactium®. Here are some of the latest clinical studies, critically assessed by peers and published independently.
-
- Design: Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled crossover trial
- Participants: 48 men and women
- Dose: 300mg per day, 1 hour before bedtime
- Duration: 4 weeks
- Results: Increased total sleep time (9.7%) and sleep efficiency as well as decreased sleep latency and wake after sleep onset, with possible cumulative beneficial effects with long-term administration

-
- Design: Stroop Test – psychological stress resistance test
- Participants: 42 men
- Dose: 800mg on first day, 400mg on second day
- Duration: 2 days
- Results: Blood pressure measurements showed a significant difference between the reaction of placebo group compared to the Lactium group and there was a significant reduction in plasma cortisol levels

-
- Design: Spiegel Questionnaire
- Participants: 300 subjects across France, USA and China
- Dose: 300mg
- Duration: 4 weeks
- Results: After 30 days of supplementation, sleep disorders improved for 77% of consumers and stress improved for 78% of the consumers questioned. 4 out of 5 consumers were satisfied with Lactium’s effects

-
- Design: Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study
- Participants: N/A
- Dose: 400mg daily
- Duration:1 day
- Results: A significant decrease in plasma cortisol concentrations in the casein hydrolysate group and heart rate remained stable, unlike in placebo group. Blood pressure and cortisol changes suggest an anti-stress profile of alpha-casozepine

-
- Design: Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-J)
- Participants: 32 men and women
- Dose: 150mg
- Duration: 5 weeks
- Results: Subjects aged between 25-40 years suffered insomnia in the preceding 6 months. Lactium® improved sleep quality after two weeks, and decreases sleep latency and daytime dysfunction after four weeks of treatment

-
- Design: Double-blind, randomized, crossover, placebo-controlled trial.
- Participants: 63 women
- Dose: 150mg
- Duration: 30 days
- Results: Female subjects suffering from at least one disorder that may be related to stress such as anxiety, sleep problems and general fatigue. The 30-day treatment reduced symptoms, particularly in digestion, cardiovascular, intellectual, emotional and social problems

IN THE PRESS
"Meet Leapfrog, the supplement brand taking the health world by storm. A clever combination of Lactium, Lactoferrin and Vitamin B6, SNOOZE promises to reduce cortisol levels, decrease anxiety and stress and aid a deeper and more restful night’s sleep."
”"If you struggle to drop off at night I can recommend this new chewable anti-stress and sleep supplement: Leapfrog SNOOZE. It contains Lactium, a powerful yet natural milk protein hydrolysate that’s supposed to induce a relaxed state similar to that in babies when they’ve been fed. My favourite sleep aid." - Dr Max Pemberton
”“SNOOZE is AMAZING. Omg. I can’t thank you enough as my sleep has been a real issue no matter what I do but this nailed it.”
