Sleep Support
The Sleep Time formulation, to be taken 1 hour before bed, is designed to promote restful sleep and may help the body to deal with occasional stress* Sleep Time was formulated to help support the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, which have a role with sleep cycles.* Neurotransmitters are natural chemical messengers in the nervous system that send signals from one nerve cell across a synapse to another nerve cell or target organ. Serotonin plays a role in sleep, mood, and intestinal function. Dopamine plays a role in cognitive function, memory, learning, and pleasure. In our bodies, dopamine is released as a result of rewarding experiences. Certain nutrients and amino acids may help to balance levels of neurotransmitters by providing co-factors that assist in the body’s ability to manufacture neurotransmitters.*  Serving Size:2 Vegetable Capsule  Servings Per Container:30  Amount Per Serving% Daily Value Vitamin B6 (as Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate)10 mg588% Pantothenic Acid (as Calcium-D-Pantothenate)10 mg200% Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA)500 mg Glycine500 mg Taurine250 mg L-Theanine (as Suntheanine)100 mg 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) (from Griffonia simplicifolia Seed Extract)50 mg Melatonin3 mg  Other Ingredients: Hypromellose (Capsule), Rice Flour, Vegetable Stearate  Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules one hour before bedtime, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.  Warning: If pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare practitioner before taking this product.

Sleep Support Products
A good night's sleep gets you recharged for the next day. Sound sleep helps your body regenerate, relax and boost immunity. In addition to healthy lifestyle changes, you may also wish to add sleep support supplements. Sleep support supplements contain key vitamins, herbs, minerals and natural ingredients such as valerian, jujube seed extracts, calcium, L-Theanine, niacin, kava kava, valerian, chamomile, melatonin and magnesium. These ingredients help maintain balanced levels of GABA, dopamine and serotonin in the body.
Kava-Kava helps relieve anxiety, relax muscles and generally calms you down. It is available in some types of relaxation teas and also as capsules and tablets. Valerian is a well known and time honored relaxant that can be taken as capsules or blended in tea. Melatonin is a hormone that is naturally occurring. Its purpose is to regulate the sleep/wake cycle. It is available in pill, capsule, or liquid form. A soothing cup of chamomile tea before bed will help you relax and also settle your tummy! Of the four sleep supplements mentioned here, it is the only one that can be used indefinitely. All the others should only be used short term.
Sleep supplements are available as teas, tinctures, pills, capsules and powders. They may be herbal or consist of sleep vitamins or amino acids. Some of the most effective healthy sleep aids are Kava Kava, Valerian, Melatonin and Chamomile. Discuss the possibilities with your health care professional and then turn to Vita Living for excellent quality in sleep vitamins and supplements.
Lack of sleep can often be traced to lifestyle. If you are consuming a lot of caffeine and/or alcohol, working too much, exercising too little, eating poorly or engaging in any number of other unhealthy activities, it can have a negative impact on your sleep. Making positive changes to your lifestyle, such as reducing or eliminating caffeine, alcohol, sugar and processed foods from your diet can make a big difference. Adding swimming, yoga, meditation, cycling, walking and other relaxing forms of exercise can also be helpful. Eating a balanced, whole foods diet will improve your life in general and the quality of your sleep.
