Deep Slow-Wave Sleep Support

Protocol overview

Compare your current stack nutrients to the outlined protocol recommendations.

The Deep Slow-Wave Sleep Support Protocol is formulated to enhance the quality of slow-wave sleep, also known as delta sleep or deep sleep, which is crucial for physical rejuvenation and cognitive restoration. This stage of sleep is essential for overall health and well-being, and this Protocol aims to support the body’s natural ability to achieve and maintain it.

This Protocol incorporates Ashwagandha for its stress-reducing properties, Valerian Root as a natural sedative, and Glycine, which has been shown to improve sleep quality by acting as an inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. These nutrients work together to promote relaxation and facilitate deeper, more restorative sleep.
