Seditol^® Plus

Herbal Blend for Natural Sleep Support

Seditol^® Plus is designed to support healthy sleep patterns and help normalize stress hormones, thus leading to better sleep and relaxation patterns.  

It is a proprietary blend of Magnolia officinalis and Ziziphus spinosa, as well as a synergistic herbal blend, specifically designed to promote healthy sleep and support the body’s normal nocturnal rhythms during stress.^*

BENEFITS

For many individuals, the hectic pace of a Western lifestyle, lack of exercise and poor eating habits can lead to sub-optimal health. Often, these same individuals do not receive enough sleep at night. The vast majority of health care providers now recommend that individuals receive at least 7-8 hours of sleep.^* 

This lack of sleep has been shown in studies to be a major cause of elevation of stress (cortisol) and appetite (ghrelin) hormones, which is thought to lead to a further progression of poor sleep and eating habits. 

These poor habits may be part of the factors that determine weight gain, cardiovascular fitness, mental alertness, immune health and other important indicators of optimal health and wellbeing.^* 

The main ingredients of Seditol®, Magnolia and Ziziphus, have been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for hundreds of years and are well regarded for their roles in stress management.^*  In a second clinical trial, over 87% of the participants agreed with the same aforementioned statements.^* 

In addition to Seditol, chamomile, lemon balm and passion flower are included for the relaxing properties they can provide to assist the body’s requirement for a restful night’s sleep.
