    used sleep gel cap. with poppy plant and valerian root by Herbs, Inc. One pill and I was asleep in 15 mins. Had too much mind chatter one night and this alleviated the issue.

    using it with 3 mg of Melatonin for my mother who has alzheimer's and insomnia. It works well with the 3 mg Melatonin. have been using it for two weeks. Md prescribed Ambien for insomnia if the poppy seed/melatonin does not work. Have only needed her to take the Ambien 3 times ( 2.5 mg) in two weeks.

By systematically lessening the Vicodin by 5 mg about every 5 days, and by using the above mentioned substitute whenever I felt that antsy crawly restles ... Show Full Comment

The real miracle for me is that it seems to have worked better on my depression more quickly and better than any of the prescriptions my doctor has had me on. I wasn't expecting that, but I feel like I have my life back. I've used two different brands so far, and they both seem equally effec ... Show Full Comment
