Best Sleep Supplement

RestAgain Sleep Support Ingredients

It’s safe to say that the team at RestAgain has created an intelligent formula of carefully chosen ingredients. What’s more, they’re fully transparent, a green flag for any sleep aid:

Melatonin 10mg
Calcium 200mg
Ashwagandha 300mg
5htp 100mg
GABA 300mg
L Theanine 250mg
Valerian Root 300mg
Magnesium 300mg
Glycine 100mg

Melatonin is a significant ingredient in the list, as it is a hormone produced in the brain that helps control your sleep cycle. The most effective natural sleep aids to tend to contain melatonin supplements. Also found in plants and animals, the ingredient may relieve several sleep-related issues, including insomnia and jetlag. What’s more, unlike some prescription sleep aids, you’re very unlikely to become addicted.Another powerful ingredient is Ashwagandha, which may help people fall asleep faster, longer, and enjoy a better quality experience.It is thought that the effects of Ashwagandha may stem from its treithylene glycol content. The ingredient is a herb from the roots of Withania somnifera, a plant from the nightshade family.

Sleep+ Ingredients

Both ethically and sustainably sourced, Sleep+ contains a handful of ingredients, including:

5-HTP
Valerian Root Extract
Lemon Balm
Hops
GABA

The proprietary blend includes hops flower extract, lemon balm leaf extract, valerian root extract, rice flour, and silica.Although it might take some weeks to become effective (which is why most supplements take 30-90 days to work fully), 5-HTP is a powerful ingredient that may help people fall asleep quicker and deeper. What’s more, as it increases serotonin levels, it helps to minimize stress, anxiety, and low moods. Another notable ingredient is Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which reduces brain cell activity, helping to stop the brain (and mind) from becoming overwhelmed with activity. GABA is also found in various foods, including tomatoes, soybeans, and fermented foods.

There's a lot less going on in here than in Rest Again, but it is a much cheaper sleep aid making it a nice budget option.

The main failing is the lack of melatonin although for some customers that are overly sensitive this could be a benefit. 

Lumity Restful Ingredients

Restful Nights Booster has an impressive selection of ingredients in its formula:

Vitamin D3 - 30mcg
Magnesium - 200mg
Manganese - 4mg
Pumpkin seed oil - 400mg
Turmeric root extract (95% curcumin) - 50mg
Holy Basil (leaf extract) - 40mg

There is growing evidence that vitamin D3 has an essential role in sleep regulation, so we’re pleased to find it within the supplement’s ingredients. In fact, a deficiency of D3 can increase the risk of sleep disorders and difficulties. You can also find vitamin D3 in fatty fish, egg yolks, cheese, and beef liver.

Turmeric root extract is another ingredient that we’re happy to see, as it has long been associated with a restful night’s sleep. This is because curcumin (turmeric’s bioactive component) can lower the levels of inflammation in the body and brain, helping you get a better night’s sleep. Unfortunately Turmeric needs to be dosed a lot higher for it to be effective for improved sleep. In general this is a decent vitamin blend and the holy basil is a decent benefit, but there's much better options, unfortunately vegan options are quite limited. 

Hux Ingredients

HUX Sleep offers a powerful list of scientifically-backed ingredients that we’re sure will aid anyone suffering from low or poor sleep quality:

Levagen+®
Ashwagandha (KSM – 66®)
Magnesium Oxide
Montmorency Cherry Powder
Chamomile Flower
Lemon Balm, Valerian Extract
Griffonia Seed
Zinc Oxide

Levagen+® is probably the most exciting ingredient in this article as it is the only branded palmitoylethanolamide in the industry with gold-standard clinical studies. As well as aiding sleep, it is also known to aid stiffness in joints, reduce inflammation, and promote immune system health.

Another, although more-obvious ingredient in the list, is the Chamomile flower, which is widely known and regarded as a mild tranquilizer and sleep inducer. Doctors even recommend drinking a cup of camomile tea 45 minutes before bed to help induce sleepiness. Moreover, chamomile flower contains anti-inflammatory properties, can help soothe cold symptoms, and is good for the heart.
