As much as we like to talk about new technologies and products for sleep, I hope that we don’t lose sight of coaching our patients on proper sleep hygeine. Sleep hygeine maximizes melatonin levels naturally without supplementation by working with the laws of nature. If melatonin is needed to reset the pineal gland due to jet travel or irregular hours, we love Readisorb Liposomal Melatonin.
For the purpose of relaxing type-A personalities—overworked and over thinking—it helps to begin with a GABA-A agonist such as Sleep Pro (which should be called Stress Pro), or our new ScullPro which will be available in late Summer. ScullPro, in addition to binding to GABA-A benzodiazapene receptor sites, also binds to the serotonin receptor 5-HT(7) and are remedies for insomnia due to worry or nervous irritability.
These formulas are quite effective for reducing anxiety, stress and busy minds during the day at the proper dose of 1-2 capsules every 4-6 hours. Sleep Pro (Passion Flower and Lemon Balm) or Scullpro (Scutellaria Lateriflora) are high-potency extracts in an enteric-coated time-released delivery system. Suggested dosage is 2-3 capsules for restful sleep. ScullPro has also been helpful in controlling twitching and tremors, including restless leg syndrome.
CaliQuil can be used when you need strong pain relief and a hypnotic to effect restful sleep. CaliQuil is considered an atypical opiod and is very effective in many cases to support normal sleep patterns in cases of PTSD, Lymes or other chronic issues that disrupt sleep.
When deeper drainage and detoxification, and a strong sleep inducer are necessary, we are seeing and hearing about the phenomenal results experienced with Sleep and Insomnia Biotherapeutic Drainage Formula from UNDA.
Sleep and Insomnia harnesses the power of homeopathy, oligotherapy and phytotherapy to provide a multi-dimensional approach, including drainage therapy, to resolve sleep disturbances. In today’s world, many issues are the result of an increase in toxic loads, and BTD Sleep and Insomnia is amazingly effective at facilitating drainage of the nervous system while providing gentle anxiolytic and sedative therapy.
