INGREDIENTS
DEEP SLEEP:
DEEP SLEEP complies with all Health Canada requirements for claims.
MÉLISSE CYRACOS®
A clinical study was conducted on 20 people aged 18 to 70 to scientifically demonstrate the anti-stress activity of Cyracos®. A group of volunteers with symptoms of anxiety and difficulty falling asleep were observed. This group was supplemented with 300 mg of Cyracos® 2 times daily. After 2 weeks of supplementation, the following results were observed in the group consuming Cyracos®:
  • An 18% reduction in the signs of anxiety.
  • A 15% reduction in symptoms associated with stress.
  • A 42% reduction in initial insomnia.
We find that all the subjects had a reduction of stress and / or insomnia and that Cyracos® helped to bring them closer to a level close to 0 stress and 0 insomnia. Each capsule of Deep Sleep contains 200 mg of Mélisse Cyracos®.
Lactium®
Lactium® is a hydrolyzate of milk proteins with relaxing properties. Lactium® has been tested by numerous studies that have proven effective on stress symptoms and its safety. The anti-stress properties of Lactium® have been tested and scientifically confirmed at a dose of 167 mg / day. Lactium® does not cause disorders related to lactose intolerance. Each capsule of Plein Sommeil contains 84 mg of Lactium®.

USING ADVICE
Two (2) capsules 30 minutes before going to bed and another as needed if waking up 1 or 2 hours later.

WARNINGS
May create drowsiness. Avoid taking if you must drive. Keep out of the reach of children. Pregnant or lactating women should consult a doctor.

Types of insomnia
There are 2 types of insomnia:
  • Transient insomnia: the symptoms are related to a punctual situation that is often easily identifiable, ie a more stressful period in the office, a divorce, etc. This type of insomnia can last for several weeks.
  • Chronic insomnia: the difficulty in sleeping should be at least 3 nights per week, for at least 1 month.
According to one survey, about 13% of Canadians aged 15 and over have chronic insomnia. According to the same survey, 36.5% of insomniacs do not usually feel rested when they wake up, while only 9.2% of people who say they do not have insomnia are tired in the morning.
