Directions & Cautionsย 
Improve sleep quality, sleep latency and sleep duration in your patients with a gentle, yet effective, blend of evidence-based nutrients.
  • A formula designed to target multiple factors that contribute to insomnia, leading to reduced sleep latency, less waking and improved sleep quality
  • Magnesium relaxes both the musculoskeletal and nervous system, increasing GABA and blocking the excitatory NMDA receptors to improve sleep issues related to anxiety, depression and pain
  • Melatonin resets the circadian rhythm and is particularly indicated for shift-workers or individuals wanting to prevent jetlag, capable of improving all sleep parameters
  • GABA acts as an inhibitory neurotransmitter that reduces excitability in the nervous system and decreases the time needed to fall asleep

More than 1 in 3 Canadians report at least one symptom of insomnia, including difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep or early morning waking. This is problematic when we consider that inadequate sleep has been strongly linked with chronic health concerns like impaired immunity, low mood and even low bone mineral density. Magnesium Sleep.Matrix offers a balanced formula of evidence-based nutrients to help your patients get the rest and recovery that they need to stay in optimal health.

Magnesium is well-known for itsย ability to relax skeletal and smoothย muscles, making it a crucial mineralย for conditions such as muscle tensionย and pain. Magnesium also activatesย the parasympathetic nervous systemย blocking NMDA receptors andย activating GABA receptors, addingย to its calming effects and making itย a natural sleep aid for those with anย overactive mind. Studies have foundย that supplementation can improve sleepย quality, cortisol release and melatoninย levels. Moreover, magnesium has beenย shown to be beneficial in individualsย suffering from anxiety and low mood,ย common causes of insomnia.

Melatonin is the bodyโ€™s hormoneย designed to regulate our circadianย rhythm, the cycle that dictates when weย should be awake and when we shouldย be asleep. It is naturally produced in theย pineal gland and found in various foodsย such as cherries and walnuts, but moreย importantly, it has well-establishedย benefits as a sleep aid supplement.ย Clinical trials have found that melatoninย can reduce the time it takes to fallย asleep and improve the ability to stayย asleep, increasing total sleep time andย restfulness. Melatonin is particularlyย indicated for individuals that do shift-work overnight or to prevent jet lag in people that travel often.

GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid) is anย inhibitory neurotransmitter often usedย to relax the mind in cases of anxiety,ย stress, low mood and insomnia.ย Research has shown that GABA canย reduce anxiety and reduce the amountย of time it takes to fall asleep, making thisย amino acid particularly useful in thoseย with difficulty initiating sleep becauseย they cannot calm their racing mind.

Collectively, Magnesium SleepยทMatrix contains 125 mg of elemental magnesium, 100 mg of pure GABA and 2.5 mg of stable melatonin per vegetarian capsule. This makesย Magnesium SleepยทMatrix a gentle, yet effective, option for patients with insomnia due to stress, anxiety, circadian rhythm errors and chronic pain.
