INSOMNIA

Sleeplessness is a problem that affects millions of people every night. There are many causes for sleep struggles, and even more consequences - increased stress, anxiety, and irritableness - all of which can impact your family, your career, and even your sense of self-worth.

There has been a recent boom in non-prescription treatments for insomnia. These work to help your body fall asleep with all-natural ingredients. In addition to costing less than prescribed medications, they are by-and-large not habit-forming and carry no side effects.

When looking at different insomnia treatments, there are certain factors you need to consider. Some of these include:

•  Effectiveness.  Does the product help you to fall asleep? How convenient is it to use? Could you take it on a daily basis?

•  Long-Term Benefits.  Does the treatment cure only your short-term sleepless needs? Or does it help your body learn to fall asleep on its own?

•  Cost.  How expensive is the solution, compared with similar products?

TopConsumerReviews.com has reviewed and ranked the best insomnia treatments available today. We hope you find these reviews helpful in getting a good night's rest!

We liked that the combination of ingredients in Melatrol work to fight insomnia both immediately and on a long-term basis.

Relasom is a sleeping aid that works to improve your sleep quality by helping your body transition from one sleep stage to another. Valerian, the main ingredient in Relasom, has been shown to reduce the time it takes you to fall asleep and increase your quality of sleep. Other active ingredients in Relasom including Melatonin and 5-HTP, which promote quality sleep by regulating your body's circadian rhythms and cater to each of your five sleep cycles. Melatonin is a natural hormone produced in your body that regulates your internal clock and prepares your body for sleep. 5-HTP increases the amount of serotonin your body produces. Serotonin increases the time your body is in the REM sleep stage, which will help you wake up less during the night and fall into a deeper sleep.

Each night you take one to two tablets of Relasom with a glass of water before you go to sleep. Relasom is not addictive and there are no side effects or withdrawal symptoms. Children under the age of 18 should not take Relasom and it should never be taken with alcohol.

We love the website for Relasom. It is current, very easy to navigate and has many facts on insomnia. There are helpful tips to help you get a healthy night's sleep. There is also a quiz you can take that asks about your sleeping habits and health. After taking the quiz, the website recommends if and how much of Relasom you should try.

A 7-day trial offer is available with Relasom - something that no other product in our review offers. If you decide to purchase the product, the cost is among the lowest of the products in our review and is available in 1-month, 2-month and 3-month supplies.

Relasom does not offer a money-back guarantee. Because of this, you really should try the free 7-day offer prior to purchase. If you find benefit with the free trial offer, you can place your purchase order with confidence.

Relasom is a reliable, effective product. The 7-day free trial gives you the opportunity to try before you buy, and should you decide to purchase, the cost is affordable. Relasom earns high marks in our review.

Moderex is an all-natural blend of amino acids, botanicals and other nutrients. It treats both short and long term insomnia due to stress, illness, anxiety, and even the effects of too much alcohol or caffeine. You feel rested instead of drowsy when you wake up.

Moderex works with GABA, which is a chemical your body produces to slow down brain activity and relax your body. GABA calms your body without the heavy feelings of sedation. Many people who suffer from insomnia do so because of GABA imbalances. Moderex works to correct the amounts of GABA that your brain produces, enhancing your ability to sleep. Other ingredients in Moderex have sedative effects on your body and help with the functioning of your nervous system. While you sleep the ingredients also help your body produce healthy amounts of the Human Growth Hormone, which stimulates cell reproduction, leaving you feeling energized.

One feature of the website we really liked is the support that is available through online chats Monday through Friday. If you have any questions or concerns about the product it is a convenient way to immediately speak one on one with a support representative and quickly find your answer. You can also submit an email, or call their toll-free number.

The Sleep Deprivation CD is the most unique product in our reviews. If you are leary about taking any pills or supplements, this may be a good option for you to try.

Your brain operates differently at certain brainwave frequencies. They determine if you are wide-awake or relaxed. Your brain is relaxed when your brainwaves are between 8 - 12 Hz. However, your ears cannot hear frequencies as low as 8-12 Hz. In 1839 a German scientist found that playing a tone of 400 Hz into one ear and 410 Hz in to the other ear generates a third beat of 10 Hz in the mind. Therefore, the listener began experiencing the 10 Hz frequency in their brain. The CD works by playing similar tones that will create the state of relaxed awareness in your brain. The tones continue playing throughout the CD and get slower as the CD continues. Calming music is played on top of the tones. If it works, you should be asleep well before the hour-long CD is over.

For this to be most effective, you will need a CD player with headphones so you can listen to the different beats in each ear. The CD can work at any volume. The beats are the same regardless.

You can try the Sleep Deprivation CD for up to 90 days and return it for a full refund with no questions asked if you are not satisfied. Shipping and handling are not included in the refund. This could be a bit expensive for those in the US, since it ships from the UK. You can order online using a PayPal account or with a credit card. Your CD will be shipped on the day of your order, from a warehouse located in the UK. It takes between 7-10 days to arrive in the United States

The website itself is busy with a lot of unnecessary information. However, on the 'Frequently Asked Questions' link, the website does a great job of listing and answering in detail many issues. There are also quite a few testimonies listed on the website from all over the world. The majority of people that have tried the CD have reported that it has worked for them and they sleep through the night. There are still some that it does not work for however.

If you don't mind falling asleep wearing a pair of headphones, this is a good alternative to try if you are not interested in taking a supplement. With the product's success, competitive price, and 90-day guarantee, you might find the Sleep Deprivation CD worth a try.

The Biogetica Insomnia Kit contains three different formulas to help combat insomnia.

•  The first component of the kit is the C35 Formula which induces sleep naturally by focusing on calming the nervous system. You begin to fall asleep by developing normal sleep patterns.

•  The second part of the kit is the C55 Neuro Calming Formula that calms your nerves. It lessens the physical effects that are related to the nervous state. Patients who take this tend to overreact less and become more tolerable of emotions. This formula does not cause you to sleep, but with less emotional stress it indirectly works to help you sleep better.

•  The third part of the kit is the Tranquiyl Tablet that also targets the nervous system. It eases the effects of stress and relaxes your muscles.

You can order all the products as a kit or each part separately. It is a nice option to have if you find that you do not require all of the products in the kit to help you sleep. Biogetica also offers additional products that can work with your kit to help treat your insomnia.

We found the website itself a bit hard to follow and takes a new-age view toward insomnia. The products are supposed to connect your mind, body and spirit for healing. For example, there are descriptions of quantum physics concepts and methods that involve putting your hands on your body and time-traveling by counting backwards. They do not offer specific information about their product, just general information regarding the company's views and the products they offer.

The website has additional information such as a TV interview and online live support from a doctor. In the one testimonial posted on the website the person said they slept solid for twelve hours, however most people probably don't want to sleep for twelve hours.

Another odd fact is that Biogetica recommends using the product for a minimum of 45 days to really see results. All the other products in our review claim that you will see results within the first few days, if not sooner. You can take Biogetica products for three months and return them for a refund if you are not satisfied.

Compared to the rest of the products in our review, this is the most inconvenient to use, offers only vague and sometimes incoherent information, is expensive, and by far takes the most time to see any results. Biogetica has earned our lowest rating.
