Answer 1

I haven't taken that specific suppliment, but the ingredients sound correct as a sleep aid.  The herbs are what is usually recommended for people who have sleep problems.

Melatonin helps get the body into a proper sleep cycle.

Here's some info on the other suppliments

"L-theanine does not act as a sedative, but it does significantly improve sleep quality."

L-Tryptophan

"The wonderful effect that tryptophan has on both mood and sleep may be because the body naturally converts tryptophan into both serotonin and melatonin. Serotonin levels affects mood and melatonin affects sleep."

"Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine): 50 to 100mg of Vitamin B6 per day can help prevent insomnia. Your body needs adequate B6 in order to produce serotonin which is required for the sleep-triggering hormone called melatonin. An excellent source of vitamin B6 is a tablespoon or two of nutritional yeast which can be stirred into a glass of fruit juice."
