Improving the Amount & Quality of Your Sleep to Recover, Refresh and Feel Great!




Are you getting enough sleep?  Are you training hard at the gym, eating a healthy diet and staying active?

All the training and healthy eating you are doing along with the supplements you are taking can all be for nothing if you’re not getting the rest the body and mind needs to recover.

In today’s busy world our schedules rarely give us time for 8 hours of sleep a night and even if we do have the time are we really getting the proper sleep?  Less than eight hours a night of sleep can be ok if you are getting the right sleep.  

What is the right sleep? There are two types of sleep,  nR.E.M.  and R.E.M
The first type nR.E.M. (non Rapid Eye Movement) has 4 stages:
Stage 1 – between awake and asleep or light sleep,
Stage 2  - Onset of sleep, disengaged from surroundings, breathing/heart rate are regular and your body temperature drops.
 Stage 3 & 4 – Deep restorative sleep, blood pressure/breathing slows, blood supply to the muscles increases, tissue growth, repair and hormone release occur.

The second type of sleep is R.E.M – (Rapid Eye Movement).  R.E.M. sleep first occurs about 90 minutes after falling asleep and recurs about every 90 minutes, getting longer later in the night.  It also provides energy to the brain.  During this stage the brain is active and dreams occur.  It also supports daytime performance.

Vitamin A is an important antioxidant that can enhance the immune system and also aids in protein utilization.

GABA or Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter that helps nerve impulses communicate. GABA supports the nervous system as well as natural hormone production. GABA has been linked to supporting stable mood, relaxation and restful sleep.  It may also help support the production of hormones that can build lean muscle and metabolize fat.

  1. As reported by Stanford Medical, It is in fact the SINGLE reason women in this country live 10 years more and weigh on average 42 lbs lighter than us.

    (And actually, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret-exercise and absolutely EVERYTHING related to "HOW" they are eating.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", not "what"...
