Restalex
Restalex promises to be the “only non-prescription sleep solution that solves the problems of these stressful times.” In reality, Restalex has a few quality ingredients but is not the miracle sleeping aid it cracks itself up to be. Let’s take a closer look at Restalex.
What’s in Restalex?
Strangely, the Restalex website doesn’t disclose a list of the ingredients on their website. This is a definite red flag. Typically companies do this in an effort to hide their weak ingredient formula. We aren’t accusing Restalex of this, but there aren’t many other logical reasons as to why they wouldn’t disclose a list of ingredients.
It appears the main ingredients in Restalex are:
- Valerian Root
- Melatonin
- Lemon Balm
- Griffonia
Valerian Root. Valerian Root is one of the better and most common sleeping aid ingredients on the market. What makes Valerian Root so good? Valerian Root contains valerenic acid. Valerenic acid has been proven in clinical studies to relax the body and induce sleep. However, valerian root must be taken at the right dosage (500 mg’s) to be effective. The amount of Valerian Root is not disclosed in Restalex so we are left to wonder.
Melatonin. Like Valerian Root, Melatonin is a proven sleep aid ingredient. It helps the body control its own internal clock. That being said, it must be taken at the correct dosage and has been linked to several side effects.
Lemon Balm. Lemon Balm is a supplementary ingredient to Valerian Root. A clinical study showed that the effectiveness of Valerian Root dramatically increased when combined with Lemon Balm. However, we are waiting for more credible scientific studies before we buy into this.
Griffonia. Griffonia comes from a shrub in Africa. It purportedly helps the seratonin levels of the body, which can help insomnia. Studies are inconclusive backing this claim.
Restalex has a decent ingredient profile but because the exact amounts aren’t disclosed, we are left to wonder as to its effectiveness. Customer reviews lead us to believe it is average but nothing special.
Restalex Wafers
Unlike most sleep aid products on the market, Restalex is not a pill. It is a wafer that is to be dissolved in water. The idea behind this is that by drinking it in liquid form, you will feel its effects faster. You will feel the effects faster than a normal diet pill but only by a matter of minutes, which in our mind doesn’t compensate for the terrible taste of drinking it.
How much does Restalex cost?
1 Tube of Restalex will last 10 nights. Including shipping and handling a tube of Restalex will set you back about $16.
Is there a money back guarantee?
There is a 60 day money back guarantee. Guarantees are great because they show the manufacturer has confidence in their product and reduce the risk of your purchase.
Is Restalex worth purchasing?
Restalex is good but not great. Considering the amounts of the different ingredients aren’t disclosed, buying it would be a gamble especially considering there are better sleeping aids on the market.
