STEP 5 – THE NEED FOR SLEEP

broken image

Sleep quantity and quality is associated with almost every metric of health and well-being. Recent scientific research has provided an almost endless amount of data regarding the importance of sleep and health.

Meeting recommended sleeping guidelines and having good sleep hygiene is associated with increased quality of life and prolonged health. It is also directly associated with decreased risk for many health problems.

Adequate sleep has been shown to positively influence nutrition and exercise habits and have a direct impact on weight management. And, for the more than 25% of U.S. adults not meeting generally recommended guidelines for sleep and over 9 million regularly using products to help with sleep, improvement in this area is one thing that could make a big difference in their lives.

Although there are many commercial options and an increasing amount of herbal and natural alternatives, little research has been done regarding their safety and efficacy. While there is clinical and experimental research to suggest that consumption of the individual components of doTERRA Serenity Restful Complex Softgels (Lavender essential oil, L-theanine, lemon balm, passion flower, and chamomile) may aid in several parameters of sleep quality, what was really needed was human clinical data on the finished product.

Enter the doTERRA research group.
