Insomnia Protocol

submitted by: admin on 12/02/2013

A good night's sleep is absolutely essential for good health and most of us need between 7-8 hours every night. Lack of sleep leads to a state of inflammation and high levels of stress hormones, which lead to a wide range of diseases that include type 2 diabetes, hypertension, osteoporosis, heart attacks, strokes, cancer, obesity and much more. It also aggravates any health care condition we might have. In our fast paced lives we don't get enough sleep and many of us resort to using sleeping aids that cannot solve the underlying problems.

Insomnia Protocol: Nutritional Support Protocol

Lifestyle Recommendations:

1. Participate in a regular balanced exercise program that includes wearing a pedometer to ensure that you collect steps and move more. High intensity short bursts (20-60 seconds) of activity during the day are recommended to enhance growth hormone release. Also engage in resistance training that works all major muscle groups (work each group at least 2 times a week). Avoid exercise late in the day.

2. Avoid extra stress and obligations.

3. Rule out hormone imbalance/deficiencies.

4. Rule out hypothyroidism, hypoglycemia, and weak adrenal function.

5. Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption.

6. Avoid caffeine containing products, stimulant-containing herbs, and hypoglycemic conditions.

7. Check prescription drugs for side effects. Many contain caffeine.

8. Dr. Saputo also recommends you take our Insomnia Assessment

Dietary Recommendations:

1. Eat turkey or drink warm milk before bed as they contain tryptophan. Calcium and magnesium at bedtime have a relaxing effect on the body and can aid sleep.

2. Whey protein or other quality protein is essential at every meal to stabilize blood sugar levels.

3. Avoid sugar and sweetened products. Replace sugar with the polyol sugar xylitol.

4. Avoid taking stimulating nutrients late in the day like carnitine and B vitamins.

For Relaxation, Brain Wellness, and Female Hormone Health

Inositol is one of the most versatile nutrients for promoting brain wellness, a positive and relaxed outlook, and restful sleep. It also is one of the most crucial nutrients for promoting female hormonal health through its role in supporting optimal liver function. Inositol also helps maintain healthy serotonin metabolism, and by so doing helps treat many conditions that involve poor serotonin function. Inositol promotes liver health, and works especially well when taken along with phosphatidyl choline.

Inositol is a pleasant, mildly sweet tasting powder that dissolves instantly in water. Patients love the taste!
