I love a good night’s sleep (who doesn’t?), and my whole day suffers—not to mention those around me—when I don’t get my eight hours. Sometimes, though, I need help drifting off. I prefer not to take pharmaceuticals unless it’s really necessary, but my regular melatonin supplement randomly stopped working for me recently. Thankfully, I found these yummy, natural, vegan gummies that put me into a deep slumber within a half-hour every time. SugarBear Sleep Vitamins contain non-addictive melatonin but also valerian root, lemon balm, magnesium, and other sleep-inducing herbs and minerals—which is a winning recipe for making me drowsy. I don’t just fall asleep quickly; I stay asleep until it’s time to get up, but without a sleeping pill hangover.
The bear-shaped, berry-flavored gummies taste so good (sometimes I wish I could eat more than two, but I can usually resist!) but contain no artificial sweeteners or flavors. Besides being vegan (no gelatin), they’re soy-free and gluten-free, so they work for people with different dietary requirements. I'm not the only one obsessed with them either—they’re backed by tons of glowing reviews that claim that they’re “better than Ambien.”
