I am constantly looking for natural sleep aids and honestly changing it up between them so my body doesn't get used to one kind. I was quite happy when contacted by a company called Glysonna and of course willing to give it a review! "Glysonna SleepceuticalTM is a drug-free sleep aid, glycine fortified with added wellness nutrients which helps you to reach restorative sleep."
The first and favorite quality I learned about Glysonna is that you don't have to take this an hour or 30 minutes prior to laying in bed. You take 1 oz directly at bedtime. There is nothing I hate more than having to remember to take something and then waiting for it to work. I can honestly tell you, I felt it "work" almost within minutes.
"Glysonna contains eight active ingredients – Glycine, L-Theanine, JuJube Extract, Phenibut, Hops Extract, Passion Flower Extract, Cinnamon Extract and Melatonin – and seven wellness ingredients – Vitamin D, Vitamin B6, Zinc, Selenium, Niacin and Magnesium." I have to say, this tasted amazing! It had a combination of a warm chai tea or hot cider - very relaxing and soothing flavor! Even better Glysonna contains no sugar, carbs, or gluten! There is also no antihistamines, alcohol, tryptophan and 5HTP.
"Glysonna has successfully granted a good night’s rest to patients of long-term disorders such as sleep apnea, insomnia and PTSD in addition to individuals who just occasionally have a rough time initiating and sustaining sleep." Unfortunately I have to say one of these things I noticed while taking this is a very odd feeling while falling asleep almost as if I was in a drunk state. I felt like my crazy thoughts were a bit enhanced which in my opinion might not be good for individuals taking this when not in bed, ready for sleep.
I was surprised though, when I awoke in the morning feeling refreshed and had actually slept for a solid eight hours. I wasn't "knocked out" and yet I still don't remember struggling to fall asleep. I also remembered that I actually had dreams even though I don’t recall what they were about. I don't feel groggy when waking up after taking this like I have with other products and for instance I feel refreshed enough to be writing away today!
Cost/Available to Purchase: $19.95 sale (reg $24.95) Glysonna Single 8 oz Bottle
Recommendation: I highly recommend this problem if you are having mild problems sleeping. I do not think this is a cure for insomnia (as this is something that only happens to me when I am extremely stressed). It works to help when I can not turn my brain off and is honestly a more natural way which I feel more comfortable using. I think this is great tasting and most importantly it works effectively.

I am a terrible insomniac, and have been for years. Nothing I've tried (and I have tried everything) has been much help at all. I usually just read myself to sleep, which can take hours sometimes!
ReplyDeleteI am trying to break my sugar addiction, and the cravings make it difficult to fall asleep
ReplyDeleteI am not a chronic insomniac but I do have bouts of insomnia periodically. I have not been able to definitively say what the triggers are but I have noticed a correlation with stress. it usually helps to have a cup of lavender tea, put a warm relaxing pack on my neck and shoulders, and have absolute dark in the room. It doesn't always help me actually sleep but I do usually get some rest.

ReplyDeletei eat healthy and exercise during the day so i can sleep good at night
ReplyDeleteThe past few months I have started having trouble staying asleep through the night. So I started taking an herbal supplement, Valerian Root, which has certainly helped me. Also, reading a book before bedtime helps slow my brain down, so I can fall asleep faster.
