BEDTIME FROM ORGANIKA IS A UNIQUE COMBINATION OF HERBS THAT PROMOTE SLEEP AND RELAXATION, INCLUDING:
Valerian - Valerian has been used traditionally for many years as a sedative and alleviator of anxiety. It has many benefits over the use of pharmaceutical sedatives and sleep aids. Valerian does not alter the brain waves that occur as a part of normal sleep patterns. Therefore the sleep that you get after taking valerian is just as restful as normal sleep.
Passion Flower - Passion flower is a vine that is found along the roadside in many North American locations. It has been used traditionally as a sedative, reducing hyperactivity and anxiety. Passion flower's chemical components, maltol and ethylmaltol relax areas of the brain and reduce muscle tension. They bind to the same receptors that are used by sedative medications. Passion flower can be used for stress, anxiety, insomnia, hyperactivity and nervousness.
Hops - Traditionally used a mild sedative. Hops is helpful for anxiety, restlessness and sleep disturbances. It also helps stimulate the appetite and improve digestion. It is most often used by health practitioners for hyperactivity, insomnia, nervousness, pain, stress, toothaches and ulcers.
Magnesium - Magnesium is a natural muscle relaxant and can sleep by promoting relaxation.
5-HTP - 5-HTP is a metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan. It is a direct precursor of the important inhibitory neurotransmitter serotonin, which is secreted in response to mood or emotion swings. 5-HTP encourages a sense of well-being, aids relaxation and promotes healthy sleep cycles.
INSOMNIA
Insomnia or, habitual sleeplessness, affects approximately one in ten individuals and becomes more common as we age. It can involve the inability to fall asleep or the inability to stay asleep. Causes of insomnia are, use of stimulants like caffeine or antihistamine, evening eating, evening exercise, shift work, an uncomfortable sleep environment, a weak bladder, worry, grief or stress. Chronic insomnia is usually caused by a medical condition such as hypoglycemia, hyperthyroidism, restless leg syndrome, arthritis, breathing disorders, indigestion or sleep apnea. Half of all chronic insomniacs suffer from depression or another psychological disorder.
We need deep and sound sleep to allow both our bodies and our minds to recuperate from the challenges and (often) stress of our daily lives. When we don't get enough good quality sleep, it affects our body in many ways. Many bodily processes are regulated by sleep for example production of certain neurotransmitters and hormones. If the specific glands and cells do not receive the correct messages produced by sleeping, then the healthy amount of these important substances may not be produced. Depression may result in the case of neurotransmitter deficiency. Fatigue or anxiety may result in the case of insufficient adrenal or thyroid hormones. Feeling tired frequently can reduce someone's enjoyment of life.
Nutritional support for insomnia should include supplements to address each of these factors, including: stress reduction, optimizing neurotransmitter production, addressing potential sleep disorders, and taking supplements to improve overall sleep quality.
