Sleep Select - 60 Capsules | Moss Nutrition

Melatonin is a hormone which helps to regulate natural sleep cycles. The pineal gland secretes melatonin when triggered by darkness, yet it is rare for people to sleep when the sunsets. Multiple clinical studies suggest that supplementation with melatonin may help to improve sleep quality.

5HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is the chemical compound which directly precedes serotonin and melatonin. It is manufactured from the amino acid tryptophan, available in small amounts from food as well as produced in our body. Sleep problems (as well as memory and behavioural problems) may be triggered when tryptophan and serotonin levels are imbalanced. Taking 5 HTP helps to support serotonin synthesis to help promote calmness and a sense of well-being.

GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) is an amino acid that prevents other excitatory neurotransmitters from firing when it is time to relax and sleep. It is used to help support healthful sleep cycles as well as for reducing overall stress levels.

L-Theanine, an amino acid found in green tea, is known for its calming and mood-modulating effects. L-theanine interacts with GABA receptors and may help block the binding of L-glutamic acid to glutamate receptors in the brain. It also appears to help reduce the effects of stress by inhibiting the excitement of neuronal activity in the brain.

Calcium and Magnesium work together to help relax muscles, decreasing the likelihood of a potentially stressful distraction (muscle tension) from interfering with relaxation and sleep.

Herbal medicine practitioners have long recognized a number of botanicals as time-honoured stress relievers and sleep aids. The Valerian, Hops, Holy Basil, Rhodiola, Sensoril¨ Ashwagandha and other herbs in Sleep Select¨ work together synergistically to help enhance the benefits of melatonin and other ingredients contained in this comprehensive formula.
