    Additional information:
    MELATONIN is the principle hormone responsible for healthy circadian rhythms and normal sleep cycles. Darkness stimulates the production of melatonin in the pineal gland, while lightness induces its endogenous breakdown. Low levels of melatonin are found in those who have difficulty falling and remaining asleep, the elderly, and individuals with fluctuating or abnormal sleep patterns. Patients with conditions associated with low serotonin, including chronic pain disorders and mood disturbances, may also have decreased melatonin levels. Melatonin supplementation may effectively facilitate the discontinuation of benzodiazepine therapy and help improve sleep quality in those experiencing jet lag.

    L-TRYPTOPHAN AND 5HTP (5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan) The amino acid tryptophan is endogenously converted to 5HTP which is the immediate precursor to both serotonin and melatonin. Deficiencies in tryptophan have been shown to reduce serotonin production leading to mood disturbances, memory impairment, aggression, and sleep problems. Both L-tryptophan and 5-HTP have the ability to cross the blood brain barrier to increase CNS production of both serotonin and melatonin.

    GABA is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS and promotes overall calming and relaxation.

    L-THEANINE is a non-protein amino acid found naturally in green tea (Camellia sinensis). L-theanine also has mood-modulating activity believed to be through its direct effects on GABA receptors.

    INOSITOL is thought to positively affect serotonin receptors and promote a beneficial emotional response.

    CALMING BOTANICALS: Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a popular herb used as a natural sleep aid. Its popularity is due to the fact that many people do not experience the morning sleepiness that is common with benzodiazepine medications. Sleep Factors also provides higher dose nervine herbs, such as blue skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora), passion flower (Passiflora incarnata), wild lettuce (Lactuca virosa), Matricaria chamomilla, and hops (Humulas lupulus). These are combined with lower dose sedating herbs including Jamaican dogwood bark (Piscidia piscipula), Zizyphus jujuba, and California poppy (Eschscholzia californica).

    CALCIUM AND MAGNESIUM are essential minerals in the body responsible for hundreds of reactions in the body. When taken together they improve muscle contraction and relaxation, cellular energy production, and nerve cell conduction. These essential minerals can have spasmolytic effects on tight, tense muscles promoting an undisturbed and comfortable slumber.
