The most common sleep related problem that people face is insomnia better known as lack of sleep which causes a host of issues in the body such as metabolic problems, insulin insensitivity, poor blood sugar control, increased pain and inflammation levels and much more.
How to get a Good Night’s sleep?
Gelatin contains a high percentage of glycine, a non-essential amino acid and inhibitory neurotransmitter. It seems to quieten the mind, decrease anxiety and lowers the body's temperature promoting a healthy, sound sleep. Gelatin is not known to induce sleep. It lowers your body’s temperature, which causes the fragmentation in sleep to lessen and in turn allows you to enjoy longer periods of sleep.
