However, take comfort in the knowledge that you’re not alone in this struggle. Help in the form of iHerb’s best sleep aids has arrived — a wonderland of health supplements for better, healthier bodies.

I myself am plagued with bad sleeping habits — it always begins with a mindlessly scroll through Instagram and before I know it, it’s 5AM 🙃 . Recently, I’ve started combating the urge to scroll with sleeping supplements that work to coax me into blissful sleep instead. Since my foray into the realm of sleep aid, I’m been waking up feeling energised instead of grumpy.

6 Best Sleep Aids From iHerb

1. VitaFusion Melatonin Gummies

Why it’s worth it: VitaFusion is one of the most popular brands on iHerb for various health supplements. Their Melatonin gummies (3mg per serving), however, should be a flagship product. Not only do they get you to sleep faster, but they do wonders in helping you achieve that fresh feeling you get after a good night’s sleep. Plus point — they are super yummy, and have no artificial flavours added!

Serving Size: 2 gummies (3mg) 
Price: US$11.96 (~S$16.10) for 140 gummies

2. Natrol Melatonin (Fast Dissolve)

Why it’s worth it: Natrol’s Melatonin comes in the form of quick-dissolving tablets that don’t require any water for it to liquify — which makes it a fuss-free way of falling asleep faster anytime, anywhere. You might want to steer clear of this when rushing out an assignment.

Serving Size: 1 tablet (5mg)
Price: US$12.99 (~S$17.40) for 150 tablets

3. Life Extension Neuro-Mag (Magnesium L-Threonate)

Why it’s worth it: Magnesium is well-known for the promotion of healthy brain functions, reducing stress, and inducing an overall calming effect for restful sleep. Fun fact — magnesium levels decline in the brain as we age, so this helps to balance out our brain chemistry.

In case you were wondering, Life Extension’s Neuro-Mag contains Magnesium L-Threonate which is said to have less of a laxative effect than other types of magnesium.

Serving Size: 3 capsules (144mg)
Price: US$30 (~S$40.30) for 90 capsules

4. Jarrow Formulas 5-HTP

Why it’s worth it: 5-HTP stands for 5-Hydroxytryptophan, a chemical that is converted into serotonin, and is a key contributing factor to the production of melatonin in the brain. It helps to promote regular sleep patterns and is proven to be able to increase REM sleep (deep sleep) — if this doesn’t give you some of that solid shut-eye you so crave, I don’t know what will.

Serving Size: 1 capsule (50mg)
Price: US$12.62 (~S$16.90) for 90 capsules

5. Natural Factors Stress-Relax Suntheanine

Why it’s worth it: Suntheanine contains L-Theanine, an amino acid almost exclusively found in tea. Apart from improving quality of sleep, L-Theanine helps to reduce stress and promote relaxation. Suntheanine comes in a tropical-flavoured chewable tablet — yum!

Serving Size: 2 tablets (100mg)
Price: US$13.78 (~S$18.50) for 60 tablets

6. Sundown Naturals True Tranquility Valerian Root

Why it’s worth it: I left the best (and cheapest) for last. Valerian root is renowned for its sleep-enhancing abilities — reducing the time taken to get to sleep, and keeping you asleep through the night. The best part? No ‘hangover’ effects when you wake!

This herbal medicine from Sundown Naturals is also non-GMO certified. 

Serving Size: 4 capsules (2120mg)
Price: US$4.69 (~S$6.30) for 100 capsules
