Sleeping pills & natural sleep aids

Posts Tagged ‘natural sleeping pills’

The market offers us dozens of sleeping pills and not all of them are good for health ,as they cause stomach pain, headaches and problems with liver and kidneys. Natural sleeping pills containing herbal components, vitamins and minerals have the same effect, but they don’t do us harm.

A few pills of valerian is the guarantee of a sound sleep, but make sure to take them an hour before going to sleep and 4 hours after the last meal. The effect will be less strong if you take the pills after a substantial meal. You can also buy a valerian extract and drink the number of drops which corresponds to your age (if you are 25, drink 25 drops of valerian, if 30 – 30, etc.).

Melissa or lemon balm also helps to get rid of the feeling of anxiety, irritation and insomnia. Buy melissa in pills, capsules or drink green tea with melissa 2-3 times a day and you’ll see the result. Camomile tea, kava kava, passionflower, lavender, and St. John’s Wort also posses a calming effect and, besides, act as antiseptics and help to cure many diseases.
Warning! Never use antidepressants for insomnia treatment. This practice is harmful for your body and makes the situation even worse.
