It’s well understood that sleep is just as critical to your health as food, water and air. Sleep deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of many health issues. Getting a good night’s sleep is essential to your overall health and well-being.
Unfortunately, as many as 70 million Americans currently suffer from a lack of sleep, according to data compiled by the Cleveland Clinic. Sleep issues can affect all aspects of sleep including one’s ability to fall asleep, stay asleep or achieve a deep state of REM sleep.
Now, there are ways to address these common sleep disorders without resorting to medications that have unwanted side effects. Sleep support supplements can help you enjoy quality sleep without feeling foggy or sluggish the next day.*
When Sleep is Hard to Come By
Sleep challenges affect one’s ability to fall and remain asleep. Those suffering from a lack of sleep will have trouble falling asleep, wake up during the night, lack overall sleep quality and experience fatigue or an inability to concentrate during the day.
The first step in achieving quality sleep is the ability to fall asleep. That’s where GABA can be effective for those suffering from a regular lack of sleep.* GABA is a neurotransmitter that works on the receptors of the brain to support your ability to fall and stay asleep.* GABA has been shown to have a calming effect on the brain and body and may help manage stress and anxiousness, which are often factors in those with sleep concerns.*
L-Theanine is also recommended for those suffering from sleep challenges.* L-Theanine has demonstrated an ability to promote deep muscle relaxation and enhanced sleep quality.* This naturally occurring amino acid is found in green tea and is derived from glutamic acid, a major neurotransmitter.
L-Theanine is widely used for its calming effect on the brain while it enables the body to produce other calming amino acids, including dopamine and tryptophan.* Suntheanine® brand L-Theanine is backed by clinical studies showing its ability to help manage stress and promoter relaxation and sleep quality.*
L-Theanine not only helps you fall and stay asleep but also feel alert and focused throughout the day.*
Circadian Rhythm
Circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock that regulates the 24-hour cycle of biological processes. Individuals with a disrupted circadian rhythm often struggle to fall asleep and wake up at an appropriate time. A disrupted circadian rhythm can be caused by jet lag, shift work, medication, routine changes, stress or anxiousness.
Ashwagandha is a sleep-inducing herb that supports a healthy circadian rhythm by maintaining healthy cortisol and blood sugar levels.* The active constituents of Ashwagandha have been shown to promote enhanced Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep and may help improve sleep quality.*
Sensoril®, a patented Ashwagandha extract, is backed by 10 clinical studies proving its effectiveness in supporting healthy energy levels, cognition and cardiovascular function, all of which contribute to improved sleep quality.*
Shift Work and Jet Lag
Speaking of circadian rhythm, a rotating work schedule or time zone can throw off your internal clock and leave you fatigued, lacking energy, irritable or unable to concentrate. While these symptoms maybe be temporary, anyone that does shift work or experiences jet lag may struggle to get back into a healthy sleep cycle.
Similar to Ashwagandha, Melatonin can help you adjust to a change in schedule by regulating your circadian rhythm.* Melatonin is a powerful free-radical fighter responsible for controlling your sleep-wake cycle as it signals to the body when it’s time to wake up or go to sleep.* This hormone is found in the body but can be taken to adjust your internal clock and get you back into a routine without feeling sleep deprived.*
Melatonin has been shown to support sleep onset, increased rapid Eye Movement time and improved quality of sleep.* It’s specifically recommended for individuals suffering from jet lag, shift work or sleep deprivation.*
It’s hard to overstate the importance of a good night’s rest. Sleep affects everything from your heart and brain health to your mood, memory and learning ability. You may have trouble falling asleep from time to time or struggle with sleep issues but there’s a sleep support supplement that can help you enjoy deeper and better sleep every night.
