6 things worth knowing if you wake at 3am
Slept through anything for years. Now it's 3am, most nights. 6 things worth knowing.
See the 60-night offerFalling asleep isn't the problem. The second half of the night is lighter sleep.
Sleep runs in cycles of about 90 to 110 minutes, and the deep ones come first. Later in the night sleep is lighter, so small things wake you: a car outside, a partner turning over, nothing at all.

It's common, and it climbs with age.
More than 1 in 3 adults wake at night three or more times a week. In the CDC's 2024 survey, trouble staying asleep most days ran about 1 in 8 under 35 and more than 1 in 5 at 50 to 64. People who can't get back to sleep are awake for 107 minutes on average.

Deep sleep starts slipping earlier than most people think.
Many people assume sleep changes at 60. In one study of healthy men, deep sleep fell from about 20% of the night under 25 to under 5% over 35.

The usual list helps some people, and not others.
Dark room, no screens, no coffee after noon, no wine after dinner. Worth doing. But if you've done all of it and still see 3am, the list isn't the whole story.
The magnesium you tried may not have been the dose you thought.
On many bottles the big number on the front is the whole compound. The line that says Magnesium in Supplement Facts is the actual magnesium, and labelling rules require it. One best-seller's "500 mg" is 90 mg of magnesium. About half of Americans get less magnesium from food than they need (NIH).

Questions
Why are there no reviews yet?
We're new, and we won't post a review until a real customer writes one. Until then the guarantee does the talking: 60 nights from the day it arrives, a full refund on the whole order, even opened bottles.
How do I take it?
Three capsules once a day, as the label says, or as directed by your healthcare professional. Don't exceed the serving.
Is there melatonin in it?
No. There's one active ingredient: magnesium glycinate.
I already take a multivitamin. Is that a problem?
Check how much magnesium your multivitamin has. The 350 mg daily upper limit counts magnesium from all supplements combined, so add them up. If you're unsure, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Do I have to send the bottles back?
No. Email us and we refund your order. You don't need to return anything.
