Mother Earth Labs’ Good Nite formula is an all-natural sleep aid that provides a synergistic combination of herbs, l-theanine, and melatonin to help lower stress hormones and overactive minds. Restful sleep is only one delicious serving away!
Melatonin
The first ingredient and the one you are most likely familiar with is melatonin. melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland that helps control our circadian rhythm – our sleep and wake cycles. The production of this hormone should increase towards the end of the day as the sunlight dims and fades to red. In our modern world, we turn on lamps in the evening that spill blue light over everything. This blue light mimics the daylight of the sun and confuses our circadian rhythm and pineal glands leaving us to stare at the ceiling as we try to fall asleep. To make the situation worse, our bodies become less effective in producing melatonin as we age.
Good Nite offers 2.75 mg of melatonin per serving – just enough for most people without being excessive.
L-Theanine
The next ingredient is still fairly well known and it is the amino acid L-Theanine. it is commonly found in Camellia sinensis – an evergreen shrub commonly used for tea – and in supplemental form. L-theanine is often used to help lower anxiety, stress, and cortisol levels throughout the day because it does not cause drowsiness
Valerian Root
Valerian Root has been used for centuries – dating back to the times of ancient Rome and Greece – as a remedy for insomnia, anxiety, and psychological stress. Scientists think this herb may increase levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) which promotes a calming effect throughout the body.
Chamomile Flower
How many of use have sat down in the evening with a hot cup of chamomile tea to help us relax and fall asleep? Being one of the most ancient medicinal herbs known to mankind, it’s no doubt that chamomile offers improvements in sleep quality and recent scientific studies seem to back up this claim.
Hops Strobiles
Hops Strobiles, the very same ingredient used in beer production, is highly regarded for its potential effects on anxiety and sleeplessness. it is commonly mixed with valerian root and similar herbs.
Passion Flower
Passion Flower’s use dates back to the time of the Aztecs who used it as a pain reliever and to treat anxiety, insomnia, and hysteria. Its use continues today in Native American medicine as a natural sedative.
