Ayurvedic medicine is an ancient medical system dating back over 5,000 years, and has been used in India to address a variety of issues. It is based around three different body types/energy types: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. With regard to insomnia, each of these types has a different sleep cycle. For example, a Vata type needs 6-7 hours, while a Pitta type needs 7-8 and a Kapha type needs 8-9 hours per night. The herbal formulas created for this purpose are usually created by a certified practitioner, who creates the formulas based on the individual’s body type.

The following is an examination of some of the more prominent herbal elements used in this formula. Ashwagandha is a tonic herb that has been shown to augment immune health, as well as boost sexual potency. However, it has not been traditionally used to ease insomnia. Indian gooseberry has been used for stomach problems, hair loss, aging, rheumatism, eye problems, diabetes, heart issues and respiratory problems. Some may notice that the ability to induce sleeplessness is missing from this list, which is because it has not been used to treat this issue.

The developer of this product would have us believe that pre-formulated products based on Ayurvedic medicine can be effective, However, as indicated above, most of the formulas based on Ayurvedic medicine are not “one size fits all”, but in fact must be created to suited the user’s body and energy type. We would have welcomed an opportunity to be able to access any information available that would have proved us wrong regarding this issue; however, none was posted on this website at time of review.

• May have some healthful benefits

• Many of the elements are not geared toward inducing sleep
• Ayurvedic remedies are not one-size-fits-all

Sleep Ease is a formula that is based on Ayurvedic medicine, which may well effectively address certain issues when used in the way it is intended. As mentioned above, Ayurvedic formulas that are geared toward addressing insomnia are usually created to suit an individual’s body type. Given this fact, we found it difficult to understand how this generic formula could be effective for all users.

Nevertheless, there are holistically based elements that have been clinically shown to provide results across the board. For instance, Cysteine Milk Peptide® has been used to safely and effectively remove stimulants, such as caffeine, from the body in order to help users sleep better. Melatonin is already created in the body to regulate the sleep/wake cycle. Using holistic supplementation of Melatonin has been shown to be extremely effective in resetting the sleep cycle in order to augment sleep; and Lemon Balm Extract is an intense herbal sedative that has been shown in several studies to promote rest and offer a deep and revitalizing sleep. An all natural supplement that combines these powerful elements may be a wise and effective alternative for those suffering with insomnia.
