What's Involved
This study explores how a fast-acting botanical supplement affects emotional well-being during real-life stressful moments. You’ll take the supplement only when you experience an anxious episode—not every day.
You’ll be asked to:
-
Log any acute stress or anxiety episodes
-
Take the supplement during at least one of those episodes
-
Complete a brief survey before taking the supplement
-
Complete three follow-up surveys over the 5 hours following supplement use
-
Check in each evening with a short end-of-day survey
All surveys are completed through the Alethios platform and are timestamped to verify study adherence.


Steps to Participate
- Verify Eligibility and Enroll: Complete the online screening questionnaire and set up your Alethios account.
- Complete Onboarding: Answer surveys about your background, stress experiences, and emotional responses before your supplement ships.
- Take the Supplement During an Episode: Over the next 2 weeks, when you feel acute stress or anxiety, log the episode and take the supplement.
- Complete Follow-Up Surveys: After taking the supplement, complete 3 short check-ins at 1 hour, 2 hours, and 3–5 hours post-ingestion.
- Check In Daily: Each evening, complete a short end-of-day survey about your mood and stress levels.
- Receive Compensation: To qualify for the $20 Amazon gift card, you must complete all required study surveys—including the full set tied to at least one supplement-taking episode.

What's being studied?
This botanical supplement contains Zembrin® (Sceletium tortuosum), a plant traditionally used to support calm, focus, and emotional well-being. The study explores its effects when taken during episodes of acute stress—rather than as a daily supplement. PLT Health Solutions is the sponsor of this study.
