insomnia

[sentricyphen]

cant seem to get to sleep tonight...

i just gulped a shake...

think i should count the macros? or what

 

[kuso]

Next time add a couple of shots of vodka....that`ll get you to sleep and if cals don`t count when taken in the middle of the night you are home free.......

Melatonin 3 mg 100 tablets


Melatonin is a hormone produced in the body and secreted at night. Taken as a dietary supplement, it is designed to help combat insomnia and may be useful for jet-lag.

2.50 for 100 capsules. Try that.

Wow that is cheap. I think I got ripped off for mine. Thats what I take also. I only take 1mg and I'm assed out.

 

[Rocco32]

I go with a bottle of wine or a few shots of whiskey. I know I don't sleep well on Wednesday nights, so every week I have the wine ready.

ha. thanks.

well, what i meant by the question, is, if your going to be up all night, youll be burning more cals...

im just confused as to how i should calculate these added cals, being that ive already consumed my daily goal.

u are very lucky..i take about 16mg

 

[plouffe]

oaktownboy - does it fuck you up, or does it just make you fall asleep? and also how well does it work?

 

[donescobar2000]

I don't believe it is addictive because I sometimes forget to take it. Just my 2 cents.

I sometimes use Melatonin and fall right to sleep. The thing is, it doesnt last the night unless you can find the time released stuff. I've been using Valerian Root lately...that stuff is awesome!!! Sleep like a rock and wake up feeling great!

Supposedly, alcohol helps you fall asleep easily, but its a restless sleep. There are definitely better ways to get to sleep than that. Just not as much fun!

ZMA promotes sleep.

 

[donescobar2000]

Yes it does but to expensive. People just make there own.

 

[Arnold]

it's not expensive, a 2 month supply is $20.00

Doesn't magnesium promote sleep / muscle relaxation also?

 

[Arnold]

ZMA = Zinc & Magnesium Aspartate

Experience. I have clinicals early the next morning, have to get up at 4am. Throws my routine off and I lie awake thinking about the next day. Too many nights I didn't sleep.

Agree with you on the restless sleep, but restless is better than none!

I am a lifelong insomniac. The only thing that has helped me sleep is prescription Ambien. I still do take ZMA and Melatonin anyway.

Alcohol before bed will disrupt sleep, not promote it.

I don't know bout that, a few vodka and diets and I don't seem to have a problem sleeping

I have bigtime insomnia and have yet to find anything that works.

i think everyone in here who is having sleep problems, that could be in direct coorelation with all of the garbage chemicals that you guys consume with all of your supplements, that is completely wreaking havoc on your system !!!!!!
