What is restorative sleep?
Do you ever feel like you’re not getting “enough sleep”? The number of hours you spend in dreamland may not be all that matters: when you sleep, your body goes through a restorative process. If the various stages of sleep are interrupted, you may experience general fatigue as well as stress.
Clinically studied ashwagandha
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) has been used in India for centuries. This formula utilizes a special kind of ashwagandha that has been shown to support several aspects of healthy sleep, such as how long it takes to fall asleep, how long you remain asleep, and the ultimate goal of restorative sleep.1 Plus, we’re using the same dose of ashwagandha (120 mg) as used in clinical studies.
Standardized black cumin seed extract
A specific kind of standardized black cumin extract has been clinically studied for sleep: in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, healthy volunteers took either 200 mg of a standardized form of black cumin extract or placebo for 90 days.2
70 percent of the black cumin group reported a greater satisfaction with their sleep patterns by day 7, increasing to 79 percent by day 14. The black cumin group also experienced an healthy response to stress. Lastly, there was beneficial effect on the endogenous levels of melatonin, orexin and cortisol measured in black cumin group compared to placebo.2
