The Body Method

The tension we hold in our muscles has a lot to do with our inability to wind down for sleep. MAGNESIUM EASE helps to reduce the muscle tension and painful spasms that often occur as we drop off. How? By encouraging the body to absorb calcium (another essential mineral) and prevent muscles and soft tissues from calcifying (hardening due to excess calcium). Magnesium regulates muscle contractions caused by this build-up and allows them to relax, in turn enabling a restful night’s sleep.

Echinacea is proven to shorten the severity and duration of a cold by increasing white blood cell count. The echinacea in DEFENSE DROPS is boosted with organic rosemary (naturally antifungal and antibacterial) and adaptogen eleuthero. Studies showed that healthy people who took 10 ml of eleuthero tincture 3 times per day had an increase in certain T lymphocytes (white blood cells) important to normal immune function.

Valerian root, a natural botanical used for thousands of years in traditional medicine, contains a compound called valerenic acid. This inhibits the breakdown of an amino acid called GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) in the brain. GABA is considered an inhibitory neurotransmitter because it blocks certain brain signals and decreases activity in your nervous system (a good thing if you’re seeking sleep). An adult insomnia study found that a single dose of valerian root allowed them to achieve deep sleep 36% faster. Additionally, the time they spent in a deep sleep increased within 14 days of taking it.

All 4 ingredients in SLEEP DROPS are recognised nervine relaxants, which are natural plant extracts. They provide calming support for the nervous system, responsible for dictating our sleep pattern. Chamomile, valerian root, passionflower and catnip are all known for their relaxing effects on the body, including relieving muscle tension, and help to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system. Taking us out of “fight or flight” mode and into relaxation before bed.
