4 Potent Sleep Supporting Products in One!
Health Matrix’s Sleep Matrix features the following ingredients for the support of sleep:
- L-Theanine
L-Theanine is an amino acid commonly found in green tea. It helps with the production of GABA, the amino acid that helps calm us down. It also assists with the release of serotonin and dopamine,
which play an important role in mood and stress responses. L-Theanine promotes relaxation and sleep quality so make sure your natural sleep supplement contains L-Theanine in order to receive all its associated benefits.
- Chamomile
Throughout history, herbs have been used as natural sleep medication and as mood stabilisers for
stressed out individuals. Chamomile is well known for its calming effect and has a long history of use even in children. The flavonoid apigenin, the active ingredient in Chamomile, exerts an effect on the benzodiasepine receptors of the brain which explains its calming and sleep supporting action.
- Magnesium
Magnesium is an essential mineral that plays a role in numerous systems in the human body but
specifically the regulation of the circadian rhythm, also called the 24-hour internal clock.
Optimal levels of magnesium are associated with normal sleep regulation and deficiency of this
important mineral is associated with shorter sleep duration.
Studies have shown improved effects on sleep when magnesium is combined with zinc.
Other research found that supplementing with magnesium relieves insomnia related to restless legs.
- Zinc
Numerous scientific studies have linked inadequate zinc levels to poor sleep patterns. A review of
the literature indicates that oral administration of zinc increases both the amount and quality of
sleep. A specific study done in women showed that those with the higher levels of zinc in their bodies slept for longer periods of time than participants with low levels.
Other ways to support healthy sleep:
Sleep support is not only achieved by taking medication and supplements. Many factors affect our
ability to initiate and maintain a healthy sleep cycle. The following should also be done to support
your sleep:
- Avoid the blue/white screens of mobile phones and computers at least 2 hours before
bedtime,
- Sleep in a room that is dark. Use block-out curtains if you need to,
- Avoid caffeinated beverages before bedtime,
- Exercise will improve your sleep patterns but avoid strenuous exercise just before going to
bed,
- Try to have your last meal of the day at least 2 hours before bedtime,
- Avoid alcohol. Yes, it may help you fall asleep but it’s not great for sleep maintenance and
quality,
- Go to bed at the same time every night. Routine is very important for healthy sleep.
