Would you like to beat those winter blues?
DOES IT FEEL LIKE you’re constantly tired – even when you’ve only just been to bed? Do you lie awake at night, trying desperately to drop off, until the sun comes up. And even when you do finally get to sleep, you wake up for seemingly no reason? Maybe you started having the odd restless night, but the more you worried about it the less you sleep?
You could even have found your health suffering, as lack of sleep lowers your immune system, making you more prone to infection – it can even lead to depression. You are not alone – lack of sleep (or insomnia) causes misery for 1 in 3 people in the UK.
Controlling your sleep/wake cycle
The amino acid L-tryptophan (found naturally in meats, cheeses and some vegetables) is converted during digestion into 5-HTP and used in the manufacture of a neuro-transmitter called serotonin. Serotonin, in turn, is transformed into a sleep hormone called melatonin by the pineal gland in the brain. Low levels of melatonin have been shown to lead to disrupted sleep and insomnia. By controlling your production of melatonin with a natural supplement like Insomnadrene®, you can help to balance your sleep/wake cycle, so you drop off naturally and wake up refreshed.
Boost your melatonin levels
Insomnadrene™ is a new breakthrough blending Valerian and Melatonin into a uniquely powerful sleep formula. Valerian produces a deep sleep comparable to benzodiazepines (like Valium) – but without addiction. The other active ingredient, Melatonin is a hormone released by the body at night to help the onset of deep sleep. Melatonin decreases as we age, therefore is essential as an added ingredient.
Insomnadrene™’s powerful proprietary blend and ingredients offer an efficient method to promote a better quality of sleep and aids longer and sounder sleep, so you can wake up more rested. Insomnadrene™’s ingredients have clinically substantiated claims that show they can aid in the temporary relief of Insomnia and anxiety.
Can a herbal supplement really prevent depression and panic attacks?
What do depression, panic disorders, insomnia, anxiety, migraines, obsessive/compulsive behaviour and stress have in common? The sufferers all have low levels of serotonin. Serotonin acts as a neurotransmitter, this means it is a type of chemical that helps relay signals from one area of the brain to another. Although serotonin is manufactured in the brain, where it performs its primary functions, some 90% of our serotonin supply is found in the digestive tract and in blood platelets.
How do your serotonin levels affect depression?
There are many researchers who believe that an imbalance in your serotonin levels may influence mood in a way that leads to depression. The causes include low production of serotonin in your brain, a lack of the receptor sites which receive your serotonin, inability of your serotonin to reach the receptor sites, or a shortage in an amino acid called tryptophan (which serotonin is made from). If you have one or more of these problems, researchers believe it can lead to depression, as well as obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety, panic, and even excess anger.
It is widely believed that depression is linked to the regeneration of brain cells – a process which is controlled by serotonin. According to Princeton neuroscientist Barry Jacobs, PhD, depression may occur when there is a suppression of new brain cells and that stress is the most important precipitator of depression.
