Q: I am 46 years old and have had insomnia for the last 6 months. I started using Whole World Botanicals’ Graviola Liquid Extract to help me sleep and it works really well, but I notice that there is a warning on the bottle not to use it for more than a few months. Why is that? Do you sell another product that could help me sleep?
A: Doctors in Martinique and Guyana, both places where daily use of Graviola Tea is very popular as an antidepressant and to help people relax, warn that it has caused a tremor that doesn’t go away in a small number of people who have been using this herb for decades every day and sometimes several times a day. That is why Whole World Botanicals suggests that this product be used for no more than 3 months continuously.
We have several other products that might help you with sleep. One is the Royal Camu. Camu-Camu, a rainforest fruit from the Amazon, has more natural Vitamin C than any other known botanical. It is a free radical quencher and mood balancer that can induce relaxation and a deep sense of well being the first day you use it. It can be taken with anti-depressants. There are no side effects. Another herb that helps some people sleep is our Royal Desmodium Strong Back Herb. It relaxes the muscles in the neck and back and is calming. Some people use it every night to help them sleep.
Perimenopausal women and postmenopausal women often have sleep issues because of the drop in their estrogen levels. A dramatic drop in estrogen also causes a drop in serotonin and melatonin levels. Serotonin helps give a feeling of well being and an adequate level of melatonin is necessary for drowsiness. Royal Maca® is an unsurpassed botanical for creating hormone balance and helping with sleep issues.
