Sleep Support Supplements

Sleep support supplements combine ingredients marketed for bedtime relaxation or sleep preparation. Formulas may include melatonin, magnesium, valerian, lemon balm or L-theanine and are supplied as gummies, tablets, capsules, liquids, sachets and drink powders. Check the amount of every ingredient and avoid unintentionally combining several melatonin or sedating products. Evidence differs between ingredients; studies of valerian for sleep have produced inconsistent results, while information on its long-term safety is limited. Avoid mixing sleep supplements with alcohol or sedating medicines unless advised professionally, and seek guidance for children, pregnancy, breastfeeding or regular medication use.
