Amazing Sleep Plus contains: Magnolia Bark Extract, Honokiol, Melatonin, GABA and 5-HTP.

Amazing Sleep Plus relies on 5-HTP to generate sleep. It is a substance that most of us have already ingested and not even known, because it is found in some foodstuffs such as turkey. It is also generated in the human body. Supplements such as this one create this element from Griffonia Simplicifolia, a West African plant. 5-HTP is thought to be a precursor to serotonin, the neurotransmitter which maintains a diverse number of systems in the body, including body temperature, sexuality and vomiting, as well as others. It is purported to be a major player in augmenting sleep, however, most of the research conduct on this elements has to do with affect on mood disorders, which may be promising.

It is clear to us that 5-HTP has not been shown to be a major sleep inducer; unlike Cysteine Milk Peptide® which has been proven to be extremely effective in helping users get the sleep they need and want. Cysteine Milk Peptide® has become a much sought after sleep aid by many savvy consumers, who know what we know – it really works. It is extremely unfortunate that it is not used in this formula.

Magnolia Bark is used in Traditional Chinese medicine as an anti-anxiety herbal extract; although modern research has not proven this supposition, and additional research continues to be conducted. However, even if this was true it would not mean that it is a good sleep inducer. In fact in Chinese medicine, it is not often used for this issue.

In general, we were rather disappointed to see that this product relies so heavily on elements which have no direct affect on sleeplessness or other sleep related issues. Those consumers who really struggle with this issue may want to seek out supplementation that uses extracts and elements which have a proven track record in this area. For instance, we have seen the most effective products utilize Lemon Balm Extract in their formulas, because unlike most of the elements used in this formula, it has been proven to be a natural sedative, which can really sooth both body and mind so that sleep comes naturally and safely.

• Contains Melatonin

• Does not contain Cysteine Milk Peptide®
• Does not contain Lemon Balm Extract

Amazing Sleep Plus contains Melatonin, which we believe is one of the most effective sleep generating agents available on the market. It is a naturally occurring hormone in the human body. Supplementation with this element has been shown to be able to effectively nip sleeplessness in the bud, however, it works most effectively when used with certain elements such as Cysteine Milk Peptide® and Lemon Balm Extract, which as mentioned above are two herbal power hitters, which can significantly and safely induce sleep. However, neither of these elements is used in this product, and they are ones which we usually suggest consumers who are addressing issues around sleep look for in a holistic product.
