Trouble Falling Asleep?

One main reason people struggle falling asleep at night is because their brain just won't turn off. This could be caused by a Gaba deficiency. Gaba allows your body and mind to relax. It takes you out of a fight or flight state so you can rest peacefully throughout the night. Low Gaba often causes insomnia and sleep interruptions.

Now, you may be wondering what Gaba even is. In short, it is a neurotransmitter that our bodies naturally product. However if you're under excessive stress or suffer from anxiety, your body may be lacking the ability to produce enough Gaba. Gaba is responsible for sending calming messages from your brain to your nervous system. 

When a new client comes in, 9 times out of 10 if they struggle falling asleep it is because they are Gaba deficient. However, issues falling asleep can also be caused by drinking too much coffee/stimulants late in the day, living a high stress lifestyle, poor diets, chronic pain, too much light exposure late in the evening or even by having an inconsistent sleep schedule.

Sleep plays a critical role in our overall health, ability to maintain weight and/or lose body fat. So it's important to focus on sleep and make it a priority when looking to improve the overall quality of your life. You'll be surprised at how many things can change in your entire day just by getting to sleep early and staying asleep all night long.
