While you sleep, your cells repair themselves, your body releases important hormones, and your brain recharges. When you have poor sleep quality, you eat more, have higher levels of GHRELIN, and less feeling of fullness compared to those that got good sleep. Poor sleep can lead to cravings for high caloric foods and can lead to weight gain.

This blend includes: 

GABA 

• Amino acid naturally produced in the brain. Works on the brain and the central nervous system. Known as the brakes for the brain.
• Important for the Immune and Endocrine systems as well as regulation of appetite and metabolism

• Studies show that people with insomnia have almost a 30% less GABA than those that don’t

• Many medications interfere with GABA production, which is why many are depleted

• Makes it easier to fall asleep and reduces anxiety. Stress and anxiety can interfere with sleep and have been associated with low levels of GABA

5HTP

• Amino acid that helps to raise serotonin levels in the brain
• In a double-blind placebo study, it showed those that had 5HTP consumed 435 fewer calories per day compared to the placebo group
• Serotonin is the precursor for melatonin and because this helps with that it also helps with melatonin.

Theanine

• Amino acid that helps promote relaxation, better sleep, clarity and a positive mood
• It signals to the brain that it’s time for your body to relax and unwind.
• Helps with stress levels.

Melatonin

• His primary role is regulating circadian rhythm and managing your sleep cycle
• Is involved in managing immune function, blood pressure and cortisol levels.
• It also has antioxidant benefits.
