Ambiatol Sleep Aid Review

Ambiatol is a sleep aid which contains the common sleeping pill ingredients valerian root extract and melatonin. It costs about $30-40 per month.

Valerian (Valeriana officinalis) is a perennial flowering plant, with sweet scented pink and white flowers. The flowers bloom in the northern hemisphere of Europe and North America from June to September. Valerian has been used as a medicinal herb since at least the time of the ancient Greeks and Romans. It is native to both Europe and North America, and has been used in many cultures around the world as a mild sedative and sleep aid. During World War II, English citizens received prescriptions for valerian root to help them endure the air raids.

Many have theorized that Melatonin can be used as a sleep aid. Melatonin is a hormone that occurs naturally in your body. It's level peaks at night-time. It is triggered by darkness and the level remains elevated throughout the night until light eventually decreases it. It is for this reason, melatonin has been studied for use as a sleep aid. The problem is, most studies have shown that it is no more effective than a placebo. It’s unclear whether simple light exposure is more effective than melatonin. Long term effects are not known.
