REST, REPAIR, & RECOVER

SLEEP IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDERRATED ASPECTS OF HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE. WITHOUT PROPER SLEEP, LOSING FAT, BUILDING MUSCLE, AND STAYING HEALTHY BECOME MUCH MORE DIFFICULT. EVEN THOUGH THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF SLEEP, THEY STILL STRUGGLE WITH GETTING SEVEN TO EIGHT HOURS OF QUALITY SLEEP PER NIGHT FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS.

THERE ARE SEVERAL WAYS THAT YOU CAN IMPROVE SLEEP, SUCH AS EXERCISING REGULARLY, SETTING A SLEEPING SCHEDULE, AVOIDING CAFFEINE FOUR TO FIVE HOURS BEFORE SLEEP, AND MINIMIZING BLUE LIGHT EXPOSURE (LIGHT THAT’S EMITTED FROM LAPTOPS, TELEVISIONS, AND PHONES). IF NONE OF THESE OPTIONS DO THE TRICK, THEN MAYBE IT’S TIME TO CONSIDER A SLEEP-AID AND WE HAVE JUST THE RIGHT ONE FOR THE HARDEST WORKERS IN THE GYM.

GAMMA AMINOBUTYRIC ACID (GABA)

PHENYLALANINE
L-THEANINE
MUCUNA PRURIENS

GAMMA AMINOBUTYRIC ACID (GABA)

GAMMA AMINOBUTYRIC ACID (GABA) IS A NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT’S NATURALLY PRODUCED IN THE BRAIN. IT’S HEAVILY INVOLVED IN THE SLEEP-WAKE CYCLE AND IS MAINLY RESPONSIBLE FOR REDUCING NEURAL EXCITABILITY IN THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH GABA MAY:

PROMOTE RELAXATION
DECREASE ANXIETY
IMPROVE MOOD
ENHANCE SLEEP QUALITY AND DURATION
REDUCE SLEEP LATENCY (TIME TO FALL ASLEEP)

L-TYROSINE

L-TYROSINE IS A NON-ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID THAT CAN BE SYNTHESIZED BY THE BODY USING PHENYLALANINE. TYROSINE IS A DIRECT PRECURSOR TO THREE IMPORTANT NEUROTRANSMITTERS:

DOPAMINE: REGULATES MOOD, MEMORY, PLEASURE, MOVEMENT, SENSE OF WELL-BEING
NOREPINEPHRINE AND EPINEPHRINE: HELP PREPARE THE BODY FOR ACTION/MOVEMENT BY INCREASING HEART RATE, RESPIRATION, FATTY ACID MOBILIZATION, AND BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS

THESE NEUROTRANSMITTERS ARE CRUCIAL COMPONENTS OF YOUR SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM, WHICH IS ACTIVATED DURING EXERCISE. EXCESSIVE PHYSICAL AND/OR MENTAL STRESS CAN SIGNIFICANTLY DEPLETE YOUR NEUROTRANSMITTERS. SO RESTORING THEIR LEVELS OVERNIGHT PRIMES YOUR BODY TO PERFORM THE FOLLOWING DAY.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH TYROSINE MAY:

IMPROVE MOOD
ENHANCE COGNITION
BOOST PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE
INCREASE ADAPTATION TO STRESS

CHAMOMILE EXTRACT

CHAMOMILE EXTRACT IS A HERB THAT’S COMMONLY USED IN TRADITIONAL MEDICINE. MOST NOTABLY USED FOR THE TREATMENT OF VARIOUS MEDICAL CONDITIONS, INCLUDING INSOMNIA (TROUBLE FALLING OR STAYING ASLEEP). SINCE CHAMOMILE CONTAINS A HIGH AMOUNT OF FLAVONOIDS, SPECIFICALLY APIGENIN, IT’S CAPABLE OF REDUCING CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM ACTIVITY. SO CHAMOMILE IS SAID TO HAVE MILD SEDATIVE EFFECTS.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH CHAMOMILE EXTRACT MAY:

INCREASE SLEEP DURATION
DECREASE SLEEP LATENCY
LOWER INFLAMMATION
REDUCE ANXIETY
PROMOTE RELAXATION

ASHWAGANDHA EXTRACT (1.5% WITHANIA SOMINFERA)

ASHWAGANDHA, ALSO KNOWN AS WITHANIA SOMINFERA, IS CLASSIFIED AS AN ADAPTOGENIC HERB BECAUSE IT HELPS USERS OVERCOME PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL STRESS. ASHWAGANDHA HAS NUMEROUS HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE BENEFITS, WHICH IS WHY IT’S USED IN A VARIETY OF SUPPLEMENTS. ASHWAGANDHA EXTRACT IS RICH IN SEVERAL BIOACTIVE COMPOUNDS, PARTICULARLY WITHANOLIDES, WHICH ARE PRIMARILY ATTRIBUTED TO ITS BENEFITS.

IN TERMS OF SLEEP, SUPPLEMENTING WITH ASHWAGANDHA MAY:

IMPROVE RELAXATION
REDUCE STRESS AND ANXIETY
ENHANCE SLEEP QUALITY
INCREASE SLEEP LATENCY

PASSION FLOWER EXTRACT

PASSION FLOWER EXTRACT IS A HERB THAT POSSESSES ANTI-ANXIETY AND SEDATIVE PROPERTIES. IT PROMOTES RELAXATION AND REDUCES BRAIN ACTIVITY BY INCREASING LEVELS OF GABA IN THE BRAIN. PASSION FLOWERS ARE OFTEN MADE INTO A TEA AND CONSUMED PRIOR TO SLEEP.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH PASSION FLOWER EXTRACT MAY:

IMPROVE SLEEP DURATION
ENHANCE SLEEP QUALITY
REDUCE ANXIETY

PHENYLALANINE

PHENYLALANINE IS AN ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID THAT’S NATURALLY FOUND IN VARIOUS PROTEIN-RICH FOODS, SUCH AS DAIRY, MEAT, EGGS, FISH, AND POULTRY. SINCE PHENYLALANINE IS CLASSIFIED AS AN ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID, YOU MUST CONSUME A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF IT THROUGH DIET AND/OR SUPPLEMENTATION FOR OPTIMAL HEALTH.

PHENYLALANINE IS A BUILDING BLOCK OF PROTEIN, SO IT CAN HELP RESTORE AND REPAIR MUSCLE DAMAGE. IT ALSO CAN BE CONVERTED INTO TYROSINE, AS MENTIONED BEFORE, AND USED TO REGENERATE VARIOUS NEUROTRANSMITTERS WHILE YOU SLEEP.

L-THEANINE

L-THEANINE IS A NON-ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID THAT’S NATURALLY FOUND IN TEA LEAVES, SPECIFICALLY THE CAMELLIA SINENSIS VARIETY. L-THEANINE HAS A POWERFUL CALMING EFFECT, HOWEVER, IT DOESN’T CAUSE DROWSINESS. L-THEANINE WORKS BY INCREASING LEVELS OF SEROTONIN, DOPAMINE, AND GABA IN THE BRAIN.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH L-THEANINE MAY:

REDUCE ANXIETY
INCREASE RELAXATION
DECREASE THE TIME IT TAKES TO FALL ASLEEP
ENHANCE SLEEP QUALITY

MUCUNA PRURIENS EXTRACT (L-DOPA)

MUCUNA PRURIENS EXTRACT IS A PLANT THAT CONTAINS HIGH LEVELS OF L-DOPA, ALSO KNOWN AS LEVODOPA. L-DOPA IS A DIRECT PRECURSOR TO DOPAMINE, A NEUROTRANSMITTER INVOLVED IN MEMORY, MOOD, PLEASURE, WELL-BEING, AND MOVEMENT PATTERNS.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH MUCUNA PRURIENS MAY:

REDUCE CORTISOL LEVELS (BODY’S PRIMARY STRESS HORMONE)
INCREASE TESTOSTERONE AND GROWTH HORMONE LEVELS
PROMOTE MUSCLE GROWTH, REPAIR, AND RECOVERY
IMPROVE MOOD, MEMORY, COGNITION, AND SLEEP QUALITY

5-HYDROXYTRYPTOPHAN (5-HTP)

5-HYDROXYTRYPTOPHAN (5-HTP) IS AN AMINO ACID THAT’S FORMED AS A BYPRODUCT OF TRYPTOPHAN METABOLISM. 5-HTP IS ALSO A PRECURSOR AND METABOLIC INTERMEDIATE IN THE PRODUCTION OF SEROTONIN. SEROTONIN IS A NEUROTRANSMITTER THAT’S READILY CONVERTED TO MELATONIN, THE MAIN HORMONE RESPONSIBLE FOR INDUCING SLEEP. SINCE DOZER IS A GLOBALLY COMPLIANT FORMULA, IT DOESN’T CONTAIN ANY MELATONIN. HOWEVER, USING 5-HTP, DOZER STILL INCREASES MELATONIN LEVELS.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH 5-HTP MAY:

DECREASE SLEEP LATENCY
ENHANCE SLEEP QUALITY AND DURATION
IMPROVE MOOD
REDUCE APPETITE

TRYPTOPHAN

TRYPTOPHAN IS AN ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID THAT’S CONVERTED TO SEROTONIN BEFORE BEING CONVERTED TO MELATONIN. SO TRYPTOPHAN WORKS SYNERGISTICALLY WITH 5-HTP TO BOOST MELATONIN PRODUCTION, RESULTING IN BETTER SLEEP.

SUPPLEMENTING WITH TRYPTOPHAN MAY:

IMPROVE MOOD AND SENSE OF WELL-BEING
INCREASE SLEEP QUALITY
REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO FALL ASLEEP
