If you've been keeping up to date with my blog over the past few months then you might remember a post I published all about the foundations of health as well as a quiz in which you can find out which area of your heath you should potentially start to address first. You can read my first post to find out more - click here.
Today's post is a follow up to my first and a review of the supplements I was recommended after taking the quiz. My results from the quiz suggested that the area of my health that I need to focus on first should be my sleep quality so I was recommend their night time sleep supplements to try out (which I was very kindly sent) and here's my review!
*The Restored Advanced Night Time Nutrients Supplements (£29 + £2.96 delivery)
The night time nutrient supplements contains melo-fruit which is a natural source of melanin to support a full nights sleep, MagneRest which is a source of magnesium, Vitamin B which a reduction of can cause fatigue and chamomile powder, among others including Tryptophan. Another plus of this supplement for me is that it is suitable for vegans and it contains a source of Vitamin D. They are 100% natural, vegan friendly, GMO free and gluten free. You can check out a full list of the ingredients in an easy to understand format in the link above, if you need more information.
The supplements are recommended for those who struggle to sleep which in turn can have detrimental effects on your health, mood and mental health, to an extent. It is recommended that you take one to two supplements each night and for the effects to be noticeable between 7 to 21 days of use. They also recommend taking part in one of their online sleep courses alongside the supplements to gain he full benefits - all three of the sleep courses are free!
I have been taking one supplement almost every night (sometimes I do forget and I'm very glad that I don't need daily medication as I would forget to take them!) for the past couple of weeks. I have noticed that I am sleeping better while using the tablets, I don't know if it's a placebo from just taking a 'sleep aid' but I'm happy with the results so far.
The only problem I have with the supplements is that they are huge! I really struggle to swallow tablets and these are massive although the capsules are soft/flexible. I think most people will be fine with the supplement size but occasionally I have had to mix the powder with ice cream or vegan yoghurt to be able to take them (I know it's ridiculous but taking tablets is something I've always felt a little panicked about).
Overall, I love everything about this brand and product, from the packaging design, effectiveness of the supplements and the natural ingredients to the easy to use website, clear ingredients list and the clear labelling. If you are looking for a sleep aid then I'd definitely recommend this one although you should always do your research and consult your GP before taking new supplements. If you'd like to find out more about this product or to take the quiz, check out The Restored website for more information.
Have you tried anything from this brand? Would you take a sleep aid? Have you taken part in the quiz?

I really struggle with taking tablets sometimes too, I end up working myself up over it so definitely need to find another solution to that in future xx

I always start off being really good and remembering to take something and then I forget, so it is like a stop and start action for me x

They sound great. I've tried sleep supplements in the past from a different brand and found they did help. I don't struggle with tablets so I don't think the size would bother me x

I don't sleep that well so would potentially try this. Seems like a reasonable price for how many you get too!
