Are sleeping supplements good for you?
If your sleep cycle is out of sync, all aspects of your day-to-day life can struggle as a result—from work to family time and all that's in between. Sleep supplements can help you (finally) enjoy those sweet dreams. Start incorporating sleep aids, like melatonin, L-theanine, or valerian root, into your bedtime routine.
What is the best sleep supplement?
You'll find many supplements that offer sleep support; this one is the most popular—and with good reason.
- Melatonin. Melatonin is a great sleep support supplement because it helps maintain your body's internal clock; it's often disrupted circadian rhythms that are the culprit to poor sleep, and melatonin helps get them back on track. Take melatonin 30 minutes to 1 hour before bedtime for optimal results. Added bonus: melatonin has been linked to other health benefits, including immune support.
What else can I do to fall asleep?
Taking sleep supplements is a steppingstone towards regular, restful sleep, but your efforts shouldn't end there. Make sure you are eating a well-balanced diet packed with fresh fruits, veggies, whole grains, powerful protein and healthy fats. Aim for smaller portions throughout the day to promote satiety (and keep you out of the fridge late at night!)
Also, make sure to kick artificial sugars and sweeteners to the curb. They can throw your sleep patterns off.
Exercise is important for your health, but engaging in intense physical activity right before bed isn't the best. Your body needs to be in a state of complete relaxation, and if you've just worked up a sweat, your heart rate might be too elevated for a restful night. Schedule that HIIT session at least several hours before bedtime. On the other hand, low-impact, simple stretches before bed actually can help your body relax and fall asleep faster.
