My entire adulthood I e never woken up feeling rested. I’ve never had an issue with falling asleep, but when I wake up in the morning, it would always feel as if I had t slept enough. I tried going to bed earlier, changing my eating habits, just about every healthy Avenue I could think of but I still always felt like I needed more sleep even though I slept a solid 8 hours or more. I’ve only taken this pill for two nights and both mornings I felt completely rested and ready to get up. I never felt overly wired or hyper energetic, just not groggy or sluggish. I’m happy with this pill so far and eager to see how I feel in two weeks. Please note this is not a sleeping pill, nor is it a weight loss pill. This has helped me feel balanced when I have always felt off or like I’m not getting enough of something.I have had horrible insomnia my whole life. I used to smoke pot to help go to sleep but that stopped helping & made it worse actually. My therapist recommended I see a naturopath to check hormone levels and things like that. The naturopath recommended this & I have seen big improvements in my sleep. I used to be so restless all night & couldn't shut off my brain. Now with cortisol once I fall asleep it is that deep quality sleep and I only wake up maybe one time a night. If your body's cortisol levels are fine this product probably won't help with your specific sleep issues.I take this at night as directed and while I can’t be totally sure yet if it helps with cortisol management, it does seem to help me sleep more soundly which is wonderfu!I started with one pill per day, on bad days I took 2. I work a high stress job and multiple changes were making it worse. Everyone was stressed making it harder to work well. Being a stressful sitting job weight became a issue as well, but my main objective with this product was to alleviate the stress response of my body. About two to three weeks after starting I felt calmer. It has lasted. Then I added Gaba since I felt like the combination might benefit me. As I begin a new bottle I see my weight is slowly dropping. This is a goal I had hoped I might be able to address once my stress was under control. I may be at a point where my diet of certain foods during certain hours of the day will finally be effective. I knew stress made me hold weight because during stress free times of my life I lost weight without much effort but during stressful times weight holds and eventually gets worse. That is my personal struggle. I am not obese, but my weight isn't good for me and all in stomach area which can cause heart problems. This product is the first that is working for me. I have taken some of these ingredients before on their own with no success but this blend is key, I think, for making it work for me. Someone mentioned sweating as a side effect which is interesting because I am past menopause and suddenly get flushed every evening for a few minutes. Is it due to this product? I don't know, but if my body heats up and purges toxicity I am ok with it. I hope this review helps. I still do typically one pill per day so perhaps two might help excellerate !y weight loss. I may try that to see.It is good for a more natural sleep aid and also if you need help managing stress. Unfortunately it has become too expensive for me.I think any supplement bottled with a 30 count is deceiving and costly when the daily dose is 2 tablets before bed. The bottle lasted me 15 daysWHY ? Make it s 60 count for that priceNo flavor, easy to take.I don’t doubt that this product works. However, I would strongly suggest consulting with your doctor, and getting blood work done to determine this product is necessary for you.I bought this product hoping it would assist with sleep problems and anxiety. I, like most who purchased this, assumed the root cause COULD be high cortisol levels. I took 2 pills the first night. While I slept through the night, I woke up very hung over. The next night, I decided to try only half the dose. Still woke up with an excruciating headache. I stopped taking it, and 3 days later, still have a lingering headache. This stuff is strong, and really shouldn’t be taken unless it has been determined it is medically necessary.
