THE FORMULA FOR GOOD SLEEP

GNC Preventive Nutrition Sleep Formula combines several sedative herbs that help to relieve insomnia, sleeplessness and to improve sleep patterns without leaving you drowsy or foggy the next day.

Valerian, a well known sedative herb has been shown to reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and improves sleep quality in poor sleepers. It is also an antispasmodic herb, relaxing the body and reducing muscle spasms and cramping. In herbal medicine it is also used to manage anxiety and stress.

Hops, Chamomile and Passionflower are herbs with a long history of assisting with anxiety, restlessness and sleep disturbances. Blueberry is an abundant source of several potent antioxidants, particularly Anthocyanin and related compounds.

Clinical studies have shown that Anthocyanin neutralizes free radicals and protects the body from oxidative stress. Clinical studies have begun to identify benefits from antioxidants in falling asleep and staying asleep.

This formula also has calcium and magnesium, essential for normal functioning of muscle and nerve tissue. Deficiencies of these minerals are common and can result in insomnia, muscular tension, irritability and anxiety states.

The standard dose is one tablet one hour before bedtime. For some a higher dose may be necessary, so make sure you ask your local GNC naturopath. Like many herbal formulas, ongoing use is usually more effective than single dose use and effects are likely to improve over several weeks.
