Sleeplessness is often part of the viscous cycle of a stressful life; daytime anxiety becomes the worry of your sleepless night, which leads to a racing mind and concern about your performance at the morning meeting, your lunch with the architect, your participation in your child’s homework or other after-school activities; your ability to focus on your own work just before bedtime. It is a challenge, but fortunately there are many good natural options.

We suggest incorporating vitamins, water and exercise into a balanced diet and lifestyle. It is may also be smart to get into a routine, so that your body and mind are prepared for sleep at a consistent time each night. This may set your sleep cycle right. Many individuals don’t realize that a cup of coffee in the afternoon may alter your ability to sleep; likewise alcohol may disrupt the natural sleep cycle, even if it at first seems a simple sedative. Adults typically produce less Melatonin and Glutathione than do younger individuals; it is therefore advisable to look for a sleep aid that is made with Melatonin, the hormone that regulates the sleep cycle and will boost levels of Glutathione, which is known to break down natural stimulants. There are many products on the market that contain these ingredients, and serve to promote deep rest both safely and without adverse side effects.
