Ashwagandha
Often referred to as the “king” of Ayurvedic herbs, ashwagandha is an adaptogen that delivers many important benefits in the body including the promotion of deeper, more restful sleep. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5,]
These effects appear to stem from its content of triethylene glycol (a compound that produces sedative effects and improves overall sleep quality) and its action on GABA receptors which play a key role in the sleep-wake circuit . [6]
It is also rich in substances known as withanolides which boost the body’s ability to cope with stress, allowing for improved relaxation before bed and the ability to fall asleep more easily. [7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]
TRU REM™ CONTAINS 125MG OF SENSORIL® ASHWAGANDHA, THE PATENTED FORM BEST KNOWN FOR ITS SLEEP-INDUCING PROPERTIES.
(In addition to its effects on sleep, research has also shown that ashwagandha may enhance physical performance [13], increase testosterone levels [14, 15], boost the immune system [16, 17], and raise cardiovascular endurance [18].)
