    Trouble sleeping? Trouble with kids swallowing pills? Melatonin Gummies without artificial sugars!!

    by

      Are you having trouble falling asleep?  Do you hate swallowing pills?  There are lots of triggers that cause insomnia.  What are you eating before bed?  How close to sleep are you eating? Is it a Carbohydrate?  Let’s connect the dots….

      Carbohydrates give us energy, right?  That’s why we eat in the morning….So, why would you want to eat before bed?  That raises insulin levels, causes disruptions in sleep patterns, and forces your digestive system to start working when your immune system should be working instead.

      I would love to see my clients benefit from a full nights sleep.  There are many options… Nitric oxide, CBD oil, Melatonin, 5–HTP, Serotonin, GABA, and I could go on.  Here is one option below.

      If you are interested in lowering your sugar levels naturally and want to actively take a part in your health and well being let’s meet and discuss options that are best for you!
