Answer:
Supplements including melatonin, tart cherry juice extract, L-tryptophan, L-theanine, CBD (cannabidiol), ashwagandha, glycine, saffron, valerian, and possibly magnesium or Prevagen may, to varying degrees, improve sleep.
On the other hand, some supplements, especially energy drinks, weight loss supplements, and cocoa products, as well as red yeast rice, garlic, policosanol, DHEA, chromium and high doses of vitamin D, vitamin b-12, potassium and coenzyme Q10 might interfere with sleep. In some cases, adjusting dosing or timing of dose may help.
What you eat may also affect your sleep.
