Bed Time Concoction

Brittany Malone • October 27, 2020

PUT DOWN THE MELATONIN CAPSULES.

Melatonin should be naturally produced by the body and helps you feel sleepy. It might sound like a good idea to amazon some melatonin pills to help you sleep. BUT DON’T DO IT!

Taking melatonin supplements can cause your body to stop naturally producing it this is why we suggest sipping on some tart cherry juice before going to bed. Tart cherry juice contains properties that will naturally help you start producing melatonin on it own. 

Have 4oz of Tart Cherry Juice 30 minutes to an hour before bedtime.

The kicker:

Add 2 teaspoons of magnesium to calm the body, ease muscle soreness, and bring down stress levels.
