Super Sleep Nutrients You're Probably Missin' Out On!

Even if you have the world's best nightly routine, a simple nutrient deficiency can make your sleep quality stank. Don’t be smelly, sleepyhead. Here are the top research-backed nutrients & supplements to calm the mind, ease the body & help you enter the dream realm in no time, without the B.O. (Bedtime Odor).

Tryptophan

This is one of the 9 ESSENTIAL amino acids that must be obtained from diet, or you’ll begin to crumble apart like a Nature Valley Granola Bar. Don’t be a Nature Valley Granola Bar and harvest crumby sleep. If you are deficient in this precious amino, you’ll disturb REM sleep, while abundant tryptophan has been shown to elevate serotonin (and melatonin), reduce wakefulness at night, and increase mental acuity while awake. Great sources are from poultry, eggs, chocolate, spinach, pumpkin seeds, and spirulina, but I like to supplement with SuperAmino23 because this contains a dang good amount of tryptophan along with other essential amino acids for sleep, anxiety, recovery, fat loss, and muscle gain! You can find this in the Ultimate Lifestyle Transformation or buy separately here (use code cvcwellness to save $50 on $75+ / 25% off).

Magnesium + Vitamin B6

Pyridoxine, or vitamin B6, is a critical cofactor in the tryptophan-serotonin mechanism. Think of B6 as the organizer of a party and invites all the homies like Magnesium in, but doesn’t dance all too much because he’s working on other things. When you stack B6 with Magnesium, magic happens. Your nervous system relaxes, muscles begin to heal and you can rest your noggin in no time. Magnesium is involved in over 600 enzymatic reactions in the body. It is a critical macro-mineral, and without it you’ll feel anxious, irritable, you’ll experience constipation, muscle twitches and cramps, lack of energy and so much more. Plus over 60% of the US is deficient in it, due to stress, poor soil quality, and processed foods. Luckily, you can increase GABA, or the calming neurotransmitter with anti anxiety effects, just by taking Magnesium Breakthrough on the daily. This is the best magnesium on the market because it contains ALL 7 FORMS of magnesium in nature (not just one isolate) PLUS cofactors like B6 to support absorption. I feel sharp but calm, and sleep like a baby popping 400-600mg prior to bed. Use code cvcwellness to save 10%!

Vitamin C

Vitamin C is much more than an antioxidant supporting our immune system. It greatly impacts our sleep rhythms. Insufficient vitamin C causes disturbances and shortened duration of sleep. The problem is, the vitamin C industry is filled with crap supplements that extract vitamin C from GMO corn and are processed with chemicals (don’t take ascorbic acid). Get your vitamin C from Mother Earth by taking C From Nature. This is a natural blend of C-dense plant superfoods like Indian Amalaki, Acerola, Camu Camu, Rosehips and citrus bioflavonoids, that not only improve C intake, but contain a shiz ton of other nutrients vital for sleep, energy, performance, immunity, and drive. C From Nature Rulez! (save BIG $$ by purchasing C From Nature along with SuperAmino23: $50 off $75+ order!)

Calcium + Potassium

Potassium can greatly improve sleep efficiency and catching those ZZs and reduce wake after sleep onset. Calcium can too—It’s not just for bone density, guys! Calcium deficiency can disrupt REM and deep sleep immensely, and most people are getting it from the wrong sources. The best sources of potassium and calcium are mainly in dark leafy greens, which you can get simply by taking a ⅓ cup scoop of Purium’s Power Shake (aka liquid sunshine). This greens powder is the best on the market because it is 100% organic, processed without heat to preserve nutrients (like most greens on the shelves) and it is only $2 a serving! That’s 15 salads in a scoop for $2!! Get yours here with code cvcwellness to save $50! Or if you’re needing an even bigger deep cleaning, try out the most effective 30-day gut reset which contains 2 servings of liquid sunshine daily and 4 other plant medicine supplements!

Glycine

Glycine has been shown to decrease wake after sleep onset (wake up less often) and increase deep sleep time!! My favorite sources are grass fed beef, organic chicken, bone broth, wild caught salmon, quinoa, and of course, Spirulina! Spirulina is one of the most nutrient dense superfoods on the planet that can make you feel like one resilient, energized, and detoxified, colorful being. I take a tsp of Purium’s daily.

Vitamin D

Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin, meaning you need to take it with fat to absorb, and has a unique relationship with sleep. Sunlight during the day is my favorite way to get adequate amounts and dial in my sleep cycle, but it’s more than a day time hormone. Circadian timing is critical to acknowledge and be aware of, because it orients what hormones are released during day and at night. Vitamin D appears to play an important role in this circadian clock. Salmon, sardines, cod liver oil, oysters, shrimp, egg yolks, and mushrooms are great sources, but I still take 2000-5000 IU year round to keep levels up!
