A formula designed to improve sleep in people suffering from high stress and an overactive mind.
Plant extracts of Matricaria chamomilla, Passiflora incarnata, Melissa officinalis, and Withania somnifera positively modulate the body's stress response and calm the mind.
Ashwagandha is delivered in the form of Sensoril®, a patented and well-studied extract that decreases irritability, improves concentration, and reduces fatigue in stressed individuals.
Amino acids GABA and L-theanine help act as inhibitory neurotransmitters that reduce nervous system excitability, increase alpha brain waves, and decrease the time it takes to fall asleep.
Melatonin-free.
Insomnia is a common concern for many adults and can be linked to multiple causal factors, from pain to stress to environmental changes. Insufficient or poor-quality sleep not only contributes to a decreased quality of life, but has also been linked to chronic health conditions such as metabolic syndrome, impaired immune function, or hormonal imbalances. Sleep Matrix Ashwagandha offers a balanced formula of evidence-based herbal extracts to help patients suffering from insomnia and high stress.
Many herbal formulas are able to improve sleep parameters simply by modulating stress and calming the mind. For example, Matricaria chamomilla is most often consumed as a calming tea, but various studies have confirmed its benefits specifically for sleep. A 2015 study found that it improved sleep parameters in postpartum women after just 2 weeks. This sedative effect appears to be due to its apigenin content, a chemical that binds to GABA receptors.
Passiflora incarnata is another calming herb that stimulates GABA receptors. One trial found improvements in sleep after consuming passionflower tea for just 7 days, while other studies have shown that passionflower can significantly reduce stress.
Finally, Melissa officinalis and Withania somnifera were included in the Ashwagandha Sleep Matrix for their abilities to upregulate stress and lower blood cortisol levels, respectively. Sensoril® ashwagandha is a patented and well-studied extract that has been shown to decrease irritability, improve concentration, and reduce fatigue in stressed individuals.
In addition to herbal extracts, amino acids may play a positive role in supporting stress and insomnia. GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is a well-known inhibitory neurotransmitter that has been found to relax the mind and reduce the time it takes to fall asleep. Similarly, L-theanine is a unique amino acid, naturally occurring in green tea, which is well known to calm the mind and improve focus. Research has shown that L-theanine can increase levels of various neurotransmitters in the brain, such as serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, while blocking excitatory glutamate receptors. Ultimately, L-theanine increases alpha brain waves and improves stress markers such as heart rate and salivary immunoglobulin A.
Collectively, these ingredients are all included in Sleep Matrix Ashwagandha to promote sleep in individuals with an overactive mind and high stress. Sleep Matrix Ashwagandha is intentionally free of melatonin and valerian to provide an extremely gentle yet effective option for even the most sensitive insomnia sufferers.
