Getting a good night’s sleep is essential for overall health.
While we have some tips for supporting restful sleep, the right supplements can also help support relaxation, recovery, and restoration while you rest.
Certain nutrients are best taken in the morning, and others are better taken in the evening to support sleep quality, muscle recovery, and nervous system function.
If you’ve ever wondered which supplements to take at night, here’s a breakdown of the best options to help you unwind and wake up refreshed.
CALMING CRANBERRY COOLER RECIPE
Magnesium is one of the most popular minerals in sleep supplements because it helps support feelings of calm and relaxation. It provides a calm, restful mood for a good night’s sleep while regulating the body’s stress response.
Make sure you’re supporting your magnesium levels. It’s estimated that almost half of American adults do not intake the recommended amount of this essential mineral for health.
We recommend taking magnesium 30–60 minutes before bed so that it becomes a part of your daily routine.
It’s commonly found in nighttime blends like our best-selling Nighttime Multiminerals, making it easy to integrate into your evening!
Certain herbs have been traditionally used for centuries to promote relaxation and support mood, making them excellent natural sleep aids. Consider adding one or more of these herbs to your evening routine:
Valerian Root: Do you occasionally find it difficult to relax or fall asleep? Valeriana officinalis has a long history of traditional use as a calming, sleep-enhancing plant!
Lemon Balm Leaf: Melissa officinalis is a nervine herb that supports stress levels and may also help with relaxation.
Ashwagandha Root: This herb is part of a group of plants traditionally known to soothe and support the mind and nervous system.
This amino acid is found primarily in green and black tea and some mushrooms that may support a good night’s sleep.
Plus, L-theanine promotes relaxation and may ease occasional anxiety and stress while supporting cognitive function.
Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Naturally produced by the body’s pineal gland in response to darkness, it helps the timing of your circadian rhythm as well as sleep.
While melatonin can be a powerful tool for occasional sleep support, experts recommend not relying on it nightly, as long-term use may impact your body’s natural melatonin production.
Melatonin can be beneficial when adjusting to new time zones or overcoming occasional sleep disruptions.
No matter which supplements you choose to support sleep, our supplements are easy to add to your nighttime routine!
From essential minerals and vitamins, to herbals and amino acids, there are plenty of options that may work for you.
