Supplement Options
The products below were selected using the Verus PhytoMed™ evaluation methodology. Tier placement reflects overall formulation, quality, accessibility, and value considerations.
Both selections contain Silexan®, a standardized oral lavender oil, at 80 mg per softgel. This is the preparation and daily amount most extensively evaluated in human clinical trials.
For these selections, the Premium designation identifies a practitioner-oriented option, while Mid-Tier identifies a consumer retail option. Both provide the same studied ingredient and dose; the tier distinction does not establish greater effectiveness or superior purity.
Premium Tier
Integrative Therapeutics Lavela WS 1265
A practitioner-oriented option providing clinically studied Silexan at 80 mg per softgel.
Contains Silexan® (WS 1265), the standardized oral lavender oil evaluated in randomized human clinical trials
Provides 80 mg per softgel, matching the most extensively studied once-daily amount
Offered by an established, practitioner-oriented supplement manufacturer
The manufacturer describes supplier qualification, testing of every raw-material lot, and finished-product testing
Selected based on formulation-specific clinical alignment, published quality-control practices, and its practitioner-oriented positioning
Mid-Tier
Nature’s Way CalmAid
A consumer retail option providing the same clinically studied Silexan ingredient and dose.
Why we selected it:
Uses the same Silexan® lavender oil found in Lavela WS 1265
Provides 80 mg per softgel, matching the most extensively studied once-daily amount
The manufacturer describes testing for ingredient identity, potency, composition, purity, and contaminants
Offered in 30- and 90-softgel packages, allowing readers to compare initial purchase cost and cost per softgel
Selected based on formulation-specific clinical alignment, transparent labeling, and practical purchasing options
Value Tier
Verus PhytoMed™ has not designated a separate Value Tier product for lavender. Readers prioritizing cost can compare package sizes of Nature’s Way CalmAid, listed above in the Mid-Tier, based on the price per 80 mg softgel. Larger packages may offer better value while providing the same clinically studied Silexan® formulation.
