Essential Sleep Support

Protocol overview

Compare your current stack nutrients to the outlined protocol recommendations.

Tailored for those seeking a natural aid to enhance sleep quality, the Essential Sleep Support Protocol is an alternative for individuals who prefer to support their sleep cycle without the hormone melatonin.

This Protocol leverages the sleep-promoting potential of Magnesium Glycinate for its calming effects on the brain and muscles, L-Theanine for relaxation without drowsiness, and Ashwagandha, an adaptogen known for its stress-reducing properties. Together, these supplements help prepare the body and mind for restful sleep.
