Sleep distruption

[Yellow1955]

Can anyone recommend natural sleep supplements please,I have tried Magnesium Glycinate, melatonin and Tryptophan. I have under active thyroid and seem to wake a few times during the night and then have difficulty getting back to sleep.

Waking in the night for me is a sign of under medication. Have you any blood results to share?

As per your previous post....poor sleep common when Ft3 is low

Low vitamin D is common issue too

Have you got your vitamin D, folate, B12 and ferritin tested yet?

Add results and ranges if you have them

Or Ask GP or do via Medichecks when get thyroid tested

Low vitamin D and low B vitamins may be linked as explained here

In YouTube video...vitamin D at 40ng/ml (USA units) is equal to 100nmol (UK units)

You will probably think I am mad but look up the “Adrenal Cocktail”. It is completely natural (organic orange juice, Himalayan salt and cream of tartar. It has completely changed my awful sleeping. I was waking at 3am and wandering around the house making hot milk and honey and reading books for hours. Then I googled “ waking at 3am” and there was the answer. Apparently we have low cortisol at that time, which wakes us up. Hope it works for you.

I drink mine just before I settle down for the night.
