Here's the reason you can't use Kalms

Each Kalms Tablet contains the active ingredients: Hops powder BHP 45mg, extract of valerian from 135mg, extract of gentian from 90mg.

Also contains: Acacia, Beeswax, Calcium Carbonate, Carnauba Wax, Icing Sugar, Magnesium Stearate (vegetable), Maize (corn) Starch, Purified Talc, Shellac, Varnish, Silicon Dioxide, Sodium Starch Glycollate, Stearic Acid (vegetable), Titanium Dioxide.
Each Kalms Tablet contains 248mg of sucrose (sugar).
WarningsBefore taking Kalms Tablets:
Each tablet contains 248mg of sucrose: When taken according to the dosage recommendations, each dose supplies up to 496mg of sucrose.

• Unsuitable in hereditary fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption syndrome or sucrase-isomaltase deficiency.

• Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients

Side effects are not likely to occur, but if you do experience any unusual symptoms when taking this product, you should talk to your doctor.
Overdose: Do not take more than the stated dose. If you do, discontinue use and seek medical advice.

While shellac and varnish are not forbidden on Atkins, I don't wnat to put them in my body. I can't imagine why these pills would contain chemicals meant to be painted on furniture. As you can see, they contain a big shot of sugar and contain corn starch.

But B-complex vitamins will take care of stress. I take Stress Tabs or B-50 every day. You can also find the hops powder by itself as well as the valerian.
