They’re two of the biggest lifestyle concerns: energy and sleep. Sleep will affect everything from productivity to mood. Hit up your local natural products store to check out these rest-promoting supplements that are worth a shot if you need help catching zzzz’s.

	NeuroScience Kavinace This go-to physician formula uses a GABA derivative called 4-amino-3-phenylbutyric acid, which binds to GABA receptors and activates them. Other GABA assistants include taurine and vitamin B6.
	Healthy Skoop Plant-Based Sleep Protein This food-based powder contains 10 grams of protein to keep you comfortably asleep all night long, and healthy fats and fiber regulate blood sugar—plus, we love the clever name “Tirami-snooze.” Tart cherries are a food source of melatonin, and tryptophan helps initiate the night cycle. Chelated magnesium relaxes effectively.
	Natural Vitality Natural Calm Specifics Calmful Sleep Natural Calm has been the top-selling magnesium powder for more than a decade. The new Calmful Sleep takes calcium citrate and adds in L-theanine for relaxation, and GABA and melatonin for extra support.
	Natrol Melatonin This company offers several melatonin delivery options for those who are tired of taking pills. Natrol sells fast-dissolve tablets containing 1, 3, 5 or 10 mg doses; liquid tinctures at 1 and 2.5 mg per four drops; and natural-sourced gummies at 5 mg per two gummies. Take any format 20 minutes before bedtime.
	Youtheory Sleep Mix this powder into water or juice and drink half an hour before bedtime. It’s heavy on the amino acids that can help you relax; plus it contains magnesium and a bit of melatonin.
