Given here is a list of eleven natural sleep aids. This list is not decisive - but it would give you a good start to know what is available and they have all been PROVEN to be beneficial with sleep and a variety of sleep disorders.
No, its NOT your average list of sleep aids - look again and absorb why. This list cuts through the half truths in the industry.
1. A forty minute walk, at least 4 mornings a week, most preferably in the sun exposing your skin. Number one for a reason, just do it.
2. Healthy eating. Watch the food additives, colorings and chemicals that are in your diet. E.g. It might be that you suffer from insomnia many days after having takeaway Chinese meals with MSG in them, or that youre intolerant to the bread preservative calcium propionate (282). There are over 50 food additives and chemicals related to a huge variety of sleep problems including restless sleep, depression (waking too early in the morning), aggravated anxiety and panic, bizarre dreams, night terrors, bed wetting, the incorrect diagnosis of sleep apnea, breathing problems, sleep walking and sleep talking, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (too active to sleep), etc. Visit my web-site to find out exactly where to access this information in more detail.
3. Decrease your intake of salicylates and amines in food. These are naturally-occurring food components which are found in HEALTHY foods, such as sultanas, strawberries, slow cooked tomato based stews, citrus fruits even vitamin supplements which have citrus bioflavanoids.
4. Look up your prescription drug name in Google to see if insomnia, depression, anxiety, restlessness, trouble sleeping are side effects listed on web-sites. Few prescription medications are causing problems with sleep patterns. If youre taking a combination of medications, ask your doctor how each of them is behaving in combination - this question is tough for even the doctors to answer.
5. Dont eat too much sugary food, particularly before going to bed. When your blood sugar levels fall it causes most individuals to wake up. Rather, have a small piece of protein before bed, if youre hungry e.g. a boiled egg.
6. Get off the drugs, alcohol and stimulants! Duh!
7. Have at least an hour each day to relax and do something enjoyable that isnt stressful or electronic. Relaxing isnt watching violent and weird TV shows, and it is not playing electronic games and definitely not violent electronic games. (Your subconscious mind doesnt know the difference between reality and imagination - this stuff is bending your brain more than you realize, and gives you more to assimilate and process while you are asleep.)
8. Have a definite end to your day, every day - where you stop working and relax.
9. If you work on the computer a great deal, turn it off completely or move away from the melatonin inhibiting blue ray screen many hours before you go to bed.
10. Hydrate. If youre dehydrated you do not sleep properly
11. Sleep cool rather than hot. Overheating in bed decreases your rapid eye movement sleep. Throw out your doona/duvet and sleep under something cooler made of natural fibers (cotton, wool, alpaca, etc).
This list would be continued soon, it is by no means decisive. We know that it doesnt contain a list of packaged over the counter sleep aids - lets get the basics down first! If you implement the list above you might not have to purchase any sleep aids at all.
