Help the Body and Mind Unwind
Getting a good night’s sleep is essential for optimal health, but resting easy isn’t always a simple task. Experts suggest that anyone between the ages of 18 and 60 should sleep at least seven hours per night to support optimal health and well-being,1 but more than a third of adults do not get the recommended amount of sleep on a regular basis.2
Thankfully, creating healthy habits including good nutrition can help your patients prepare their minds and bodies for bedtime. Sleep support supplements from Standard Process and MediHerb® include:
