Getting a good night’s sleep can sometimes feel like an elusive goal, with many people struggling to fall asleep or stay asleep through the night. Stress, screen time, and busy schedules can disrupt the body’s natural sleep rhythm, making it challenging to get the rest we need. Fortunately, some supplements have been proven to support better sleep by helping the body relax, reducing anxiety, and regulating the sleep-wake cycle.
Robert Love, a neuroscientist who has over 2.1M followers on TikTok, shared three “powerful” supplements he recommends to those who struggle with sleep. His top picks were L-theanine, magnesium, and Lion’s Mane.
He notes that sleep is not just important for your immune system but also crucial for bone health, muscles, and your brain! He adds that “research has shown that those who have a deficit in sleep have an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, and if you have one night of bad sleep, there’s an increased amount of plaque found in your blood the next day.” Yikes!
