Is your sleep unsettled? Do you struggle to get to sleep or stay asleep? Maybe you feel that you are not getting a deep, restful sleep?
Most of us experience trouble getting to sleep from time to time, but sleep issues are an ongoing concern for some. Did you know that more than one third of adults in New Zealand have sleep issues and do not get enough sleep?
Quality sleep is an extremely important part of a healthy lifestyle. Sleeping irregularities can have a huge impact on how you feel and cope during the day. A lack of sleep can affect you mentally as well as physically, and can take a toll on your health and wellbeing.
You can improve your sleep with a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing stress where you can, and adding supporting nutrients to help with relaxation and calm. There are lots of natural nutrients that you can include in your evening ritual to support a good night’s sleep, including:
Magnesium
One of the most important minerals for good health, which plays a role in over 300 enzyme reactions in the human body. Often thought of as the relaxation mineral, magnesium helps to relax your body and mind, easing stress and nervous tension, and supporting a good night sleep.
5-HTP
An important natural ingredient derived from Griffonia simplicifolia seeds. 5-HTP supports the healthy production of serotonin in your brain, which creates a feeling of wellbeing and good mood when released. Healthy levels of 5-HTP are essential for supporting healthy sleep patterns, a healthy mood, and a calm nervous system.
Tart cherry
From montmorency cherries, which contains naturally-occurring plant phytonutrients that support the natural sleep cycle. Tart cherry supports those with irregular sleep patterns, those who struggle to get to sleep or stay asleep, and encourages a deep, restful sleep.
Passionflower
A well-known herb to support calm and relaxation. It’s often used in sleep formulas.
