U-Relax is the Bomb

U-Relax is the perfect substitute for those who want to reduce or eliminate drinking alcohol. I am able to relax and feel calm, enjoy the experience, without paying with a hangover. Plus you won’t have to worry about the empty calories. I would highly recommend.

This really works for me

This really works for me. I have two drinks each night before bed. It helps me to wind down and increases my chances of a good night sleep. I take it with me when I travel and it is very reliable. Thank you for a really good product.

I am so happy with this

I am so happy with this! I like to add it to sparkling water with a little bit of lemon juice. Being alcohol free this is something that I can look forward to that will just put me in a much more peaceful mood.

Discussing company

Discussing company. 11 weeks and no product arrived. Keep telling me it is coming. Won't refund or resend what we paid for. STAY away. Total scammers.

Hi Con!

This is definitely not normal for Calming Co. We requested your information so we can get to the bottom of this as soon as possible but still haven't received it. We noticed an AU next to your name. Many people confuse us with the Australian company thecalmingco.au. They are a bedding and sleep accessory company out of AU.

If you meant to reach them, you can find their Trustpilot here: https://au.trustpilot.com/review/thecalmingco.com.au

However, if you did mean to contact us, Calming Co, based in San Diego, CA, please reach out with your information and we will get to the bottom of this.

Used u Relax during my “dry January”

Used u Relax during my “dry January”. It relaxed me as much as my usual wine with dinner. Almost no calories, no hangover. Will continue to keep it on hand for a good substitute at “wine o’clock” when I would rather not drink.

I absolutely love this company and the products and will be a forever returning customer !!! I was able to easily replace alcohol with having these packets and am so thankful for that 🙏I love all the flavors and have come up with some great mocktails and love them by them selves too! more flavors would be awesome !! The mixed berry is by far my favorite❤️I have tried other products claiming to do the same thing or taste great and nothing compares to the calming co products !!! 100% best product out there in my opinion and I have tried a lot especially being off alcohol for almost a year and a half these have made all the difference .

Relax is helping me

Product is tasty, effective and helping me to consume less alcohol and calories, including not having food cravings and extra calories after alcohol. I wish there were more flavors, but I love it. I do order larger packages and subscribe for savings also.

I have been a heavy drinker for 20years. With health issues to resolve and a young family I was desperate to find a way to help me quit drinking. I had been able to drink this instead of alcohol and have been free from alcohol for almost 2 months. I can’t say this will work for everyone, but it helped me get relaxed and that was my main goal.

Tingling and Tantalizing

I was at my friends after part (NYE) when I tried this berry flavor. I read all about what to expect and it didn't disappoint. The tingling of the tongue and the calmness that flooded my senses were awesome. I have switched my next order to try the pineapple flavor. Cant's wait to try it. When I need an extra push to go to sleep, I pour me a glass. Loving it!!

I ordered 1 (one) package of 30 sticks because that is all I wanted for now. Claiming Co arbitrarily “updated” my order to 2 (two) packages. They did not ask if they could, very disappointed.

Hi Susan,

We're sorry this felt like we changed your order without asking. For clarity, your shipment included 1 × Ü Relax Mixed Berry (30 sticks) plus a second 30-stick bag that was added as a One-Time Deal immediately after checkout. That add-on only ships if it’s accepted on that page, but we understand how it could feel unexpected.

We don’t update orders without permission. If you’d like to explore a refund, you’re covered by our 60-day return policy. You can return just the One-Time Deal 30-pack for a full refund, or both items if you prefer. The add-on appears as a separate charge since it is processed after the main order.

We see you also reached out to our support team. They also sent you the returns page for you to receive complete a return and receive a refund.

If you have further questions or need help with the return, simply reply to that email chain and we can assist you further.

Excellent product!

I bought this product for my husband to help him relax before bed after a long day at work. He loves it & it truly works! He loves the flavors too. I wish it was cheaper but it’s a great product. I recommended it to my best friend too!
