Sleep.
The Holy Grail of Deep Sleep - Ritual Magnesium Spray & Full Spectrum Hemp Oil.
I am privileged to get a glimpse into the lives of so many wonderful people - One of the most common symptoms I hear about in my work as a Hormonal Nutritionist is lack of quality sleep:
- Can't fall asleep - Can't stay asleep - Waking at 3am - Waking often to urinate
Sleep struggles are the norm for a large number of adults.
Your Sleep/Wake Cycle is regulated by the hormones Cortisol & Melatonin.
These 2 hormones teeter/totter to allow you to go to sleep and wake up. Cortisol to wake & Melatonin to sleep
Caffeine, stress & alcohol raise Cortisol.
Melatonin is suppressed in the presence of Cortisol.
Melatonin is also suppressed by stress, caffeine, light & eating too close to bed.
Hormone Health Nutritionist recommendations for a better, deeper and more restorative sleep:
-Full Spectrum Oil daily. This will promote homeostasis with melatonin release and regulation. This will also suppress cortisol.
-Ritual Magnesium Spray on tummy and soles of the feet one hour before bed.
- Don't eat after 7pm. Allow your digestive system to do what it is designed to do BEFORE you go to bed.
- In bed by 10pm. Do not look at your phone or a screen after 9.30pm.
- 1 coffee per day Maximum. Before 12pm (green tea & Black tea also has a lot of caffeine in in that suppresses
melatonin)
-30 days alcohol free would do the world of good. The liver starts processing alcohol at 3am & wakes you up!
