Help Your Sleep by Natural Sleep Aids


Sleep is the nectar of life. It is that gift imparted on our human system that helps us recharge our lost energy and fortify ourselves to face the next challenging day. It is the most crucial and essential part of our daily life cycle and any disturbance to sleep can cause harmful effects and consequences to our natural body activities. Unfortunately, many of us suffer from improper and distorted sleep, that are hazardous to both our present and future health. In order to induce the proper routine of sleep into our lives, there are many natural sleep aids.

Natural sleep aids are tools and methods to bring back the natural occurrence of sleep back into your life. These tools may come in the form of medicines and herbs that help you to get back the solace of sleep. Let us hence discuss some of the sleep aids:

• Melatonin supplement is the best medicine to take when it comes to improving your sleep-cycle. Melatonin is the hormone in our body, which is responsible for sleep-cycle maintenance in our body. Melatonin reduces the duration of getting asleep and increases the duration of sleep as well. Moreover, melatonin assists you in being less of a victim to jet lags while taking a flight. Hence, it is a natural hormone, that mends and checks sleep disorders to a large extent. However, prolonged dosage of melatonin is not recommended. Average dosage should last a maximum of three months.

• Valerian, of the herbal family, also produces the same properties of melatonin. It reduces the time you would take to fall asleep and also increases the duration of sleep. However, unlike melatonin that had been reported to generate grogginess and mild headaches after use, valerian does not have any after effects. Valerian is known to offer you pleasant and prolonged sleep.

• Just like Valerian, there are other herbs that can be used for inducing sleep. These herbs, when taken in the form of tea, can help you sleep as they contain certain sedative properties. Such herbs are mostly of Chinese origin and their names are chamomile, kava, passion flower, red clover, pepper mint ginseng and catnip.

• 5-hydroxytryptophan which happens to be a differential of tryptophan can also mend much of your sleep disorder. Tryptophan is a harbinger to serotonin. Serotonin is the hormone that assists in inducing sleep. Hence, 5-hydroxytrptophan helps in curbing depressions, anxiousness and insomnia.

Natural sleep aids have their own range of side effects too. Some of the reports suggest that some individuals face sleep cessation at midnight and even trouble sleeping. Skin tightness, loss of skin pigmentation and pain in joints are some other defects.

However, on further study, it was also found that proper dosage of the above-mentioned sleeping aids is also necessary for proper results. As most of these natural sleep aids have some amount of sedative properties in them, improper dosage can become counter-productive. Hence, it is highly advised that you ask your doctor's view about these aids before consuming them.
