Active Ingredients

Melatonin

:: top

Melatonin is normally secreted during the night by all species that have been studied to date, including humans. It is normally synthesized from a compound in our bodies called Serotonin. Melatonin is a natural compound produced by the body to convey the message that it is night and the body should go to rest. As such melatonin has a sleep inducing effect on your brain. Adults that do not produce sufficient melatonin can have trouble falling asleep, as their body cannot tell the difference between day and night. Taking a supplement, such as Melatrol, containing natural melatonin will help your body strengthen your biological clock and restore your sleep cycle.

Valerian (Valerian officinales)

:: top

Valerian is a natural herb derived from the root of the valerian plant. It has been used for centuries to induce relaxation and sleep in a natural fashion. Studies have shown that valerian has a calming effect when a person is under stress. As many people experience sleeplessness when they are under stress valerian’s relaxing effect helps those individuals to fall asleep more readily. Scientific studies of valerian’s sleep promoting abilities in humans have shown very positive results in both adults and children. During the study adults and children having sleep problems were given valerian for eight weeks. At the end of the eight weeks all individuals were falling asleep faster, easier and consistently slept through the night.

However valerian is not a remedy that will give immediate effects; it has to be taken for several weeks to promote natural sleep. Valerian will however, unlike popular prescription drugs, not cause any addiction or dependence!

Gamma Amino Butyric Acid

:: top

Gamma Amino Butyric Acid is a natural compound found in the brains of healthy adults. It is formed from the common amino acid glutamine and glucose. Some people who are exposed to stress and anxiety or depression may not produce sufficient amounts of gamma amino butyric acid, these individuals will benefit from a supplement containing the compound. As the gamma amino butyric acid levels are stabilized, anxiety caused by stress and a lack of sleep will be lessened and individuals will experience a positive effect on their sleep cycle, as well as fall asleep easier. Because gamma amino butyric acid is produced in the brain and is a completely natural compound, there are no known side effects associated with the supplement and also no negative interactions with other drugs are known. Gamma amino butyric acid helps the brain to be selective about the signals to which it responds (such as has a selective effect in the brain).

Kava Kava(Piper methysticum)

:: top

Kava Kava has also been used for centuries to induce relaxation and sleep. It is an herbal compound from the kava kava plant root and scientific studies show that it has anxiolytic properties, meaning that kava kava has a positive relaxing effect on stress. Individuals who suffer from stress induced insomnia experienced a shorter time needed to fall asleep and a deeper sleep than before taking kava kava. Several studies have also shown that kava kava (as well as valerian) is more effective than popular synthetic drugs such as bromazepam and oxazepam.

L-5 Hydroxytryptophan (Griffonia simplicifolia)

:: top

L-5 Hydroxytryptophan is an intermediate compound in the reaction from the amino acid trytophan, to serotonin. Serotonin is essential in natural melatonin production and promotes a healthy sleep cycle. L-5 Hydroxytryptophan is a naturally derived extract from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia tree. This tree is a native species of West African countries such as Ghana, the Ivory Coast and Togo. The extract of the tree has proven beneficial results in the treatment of anxiety and depression. L-5-Hydroxytryptophan is known to be a natural relaxant and alleviates insomnia by inducing normal sleep.

Relora™

:: top

Relora is a completely natural supplement that induces relaxation and sleep. Relora is a combination of two powerful plant extracts: magnolia officinalis and phellodenron amurense. Relora was developed in the United States by Next Pharmaceuticals. In the development of Relora over fifty plant extract from around the world were screened for their effects on sleep and stress reduction. Clinical studies have shown that Relora produces fast results without any side effects. While many synthetic sleep enhancers cause sedation and can be quite dangerous, Relora promotes relaxation without sedating the user.
