PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Ortho Sleep® is an award-winning premium sleep and relaxation formula. The most important neurotransmitters known to regulate the sleep-wake cycle have been combined with the most powerful herbs traditionally used to promote sleep, yielding a natural sleep remedy like no other. Ortho Sleep® contains a carefully formulated blend of nutrients and compounds that have been shown to be effective in combating insomnia, restoring a proper circadian rhythm, and promoting healthy, restful sleep. These include relaxing neurotransmitters GABA and melatonin, as well as 5-HTP, a serotonin precursor to reduce feelings of worry, especially when trying to fall asleep. The formula also includes the amino acid L-theanine as well as valerian root, passionflower extract, and lemon balm, all of which possess relaxing properties and work to increase the activity of GABA in the brain. Ortho Sleep® is perfect for those who have difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or feeling rested upon waking. Ortho Sleep® may help in cases of jet lag, shift work, or insomnia. If you have used the individual ingredients found in the formula with no success, Ortho Sleep® may offer a more powerful natural solution.

Its potency is designed to effectively address short-term sleep disorders due to anxiety, stress, and/or a disruption of the body’s internal clock due to such factors as shift work and/or jetlag.
