Visit my website to get better sleep tonight ⤵️ https://sleepdoctor.com/?youtube_id=km_-AP-yYhw If you’re like me (meaning over 55 years old!) who’s struggling to sleep, a vitamin or mineral supplement may be just what you need to get a better night’s rest. So in this video I’m going to walk through some of my favorite sleep supplements specifically for seniors. As we age, our bodies naturally become deficient in different vitamins and minerals. And these deficiencies can lead to prolonged issues with our sleep. But! That doesn’t mean we can’t get the quantity and quality of sleep that we deserve. Often times, all it requires is a simple OTC supplement you can pick up at any local drug store. But, we need to be smart about supplementation. First of all, taking the wrong supplements won’t help your sleep issues. And some supplements can have interactions with different medications that its good to know about. How do you know what supplements you need? You’ve heard me say it before: get your blood work done. It’s something I tell all my patients. I always say, “Test, don’t guess!” This is the MOST important thing you can do. Ask your doctor, they’ll happily do it. Make it part of a routine physical! Ask them specifically about the vitamins and minerals I’m going to cover in this video. Remember, the vitamins or minerals in supplements themselves do not help you sleep. Instead what is happening is that the LACK of a particular vitamin or mineral is making it harder to sleep. So by supplementing that vitamin, and removing that deficiency, then you sleep better. 0:00 Why You Need Supplements 0:30 Be SMART About Supplementation! 2:50 Supplement #1 5:45 Supplement #2 9:15 Supplement #3 11:25 Supplement #4 14:40 Supplement #5 17:00 BONUS Sixth Supplement https://sleepdoctor.com/books/sleep-drink-breathe/ ⬅️ I have a new book out!
