Summary |
For much of the population today, feeling calm, alert, rested, and in control of one’s mood and emotions is pretty much the Holy Grail in terms of wellness. With a clear mind, an optimistic world view and the kind of vibrant energy that comes from feeling healthy and well rested, people are optimally equipped to achieve pretty much anything they aspire to achieve. A healthy state of mind is a precursor to any other goal, be it weight loss, a better job, an improved social life.
There are different pathways that claim to lead to this coveted state of mind, but the quest for getting a good night’s sleep seems to be one of the paths most traveled – especially given the overwhelming number of herbal supplements available today that were developed to conquer stress, revive the mind and manage mood through the magic of the “sleep cure.” Among them is the seemingly aptly named Great Night Sleep.

 | Ingredients at a Glance |
|
Great Night Sleep contains: Calcium, Chamomile, Ziziphus Jujuba, Magnesium, Melatonin, Passion Flower and Valerian Root.
|
 | Ingredients in Focus |
|
Great Night Sleep contains Calcium and Magnesium, nutrients that are involved in a variety of body processes, as well as a blend of ingredients typically found in herbal-based formulas developed to promote sleep, such as Chamomile, used as a calmant and a frequent ingredient in bedtime teas. Ziziphus Jujuba, a staple of traditional Chinese medicine, has been used for centuries to combat insomnia and sexual problems. Passion Flower, an herb with gentle sedative properties, is credited on the website as being approved by some authorities in Germany for treating insomnia and nervousness. Also in the mix is Valerian, another common calming herb said to predispose users to sleep.
The formula also contains Melatonin, the naturally occurring hormone in that influences when a person sleeps and wakes; Melatonin made headlines in the 1990s when it began to gain popularity in supplement form to help cure jetlag an
other sleep issues.

 | Lifestyle |

With most of the herbal and other ingredients generally recognized as being conducive to sleepiness and relaxation, there is no reason to believe that Great Night Sleep doesn’t encourage sleep in people with mild to moderate sleep issues, especially those who have trouble achieving a state of relaxation before bed. However, despite having a huge amount of copy, enthusiastic -sounding testimonials, and lots of bandwidth devoted to assurances of high quality, the website offers very little information and reads more like an infomercial than a helpful source of information. In fact, aside from listing ingredients, nothing is explained about the formula, and if there is a point of distinction that sets Great Night Sleep apart from its competitors, it’s not explained or obtainable from the website.
If sleep struggles seem to be at the root of a person’s poor outlook, unexplained moodiness and daytime anxiety, a sleep remedy such as this one might be of some help, though we would feel more confident recommending a natural supplement that actually targets the mood/mind issues themselves.
|
 | Positives |
|
• Standard ingredients that seem reliable
• Includes Melatonin, a natural sleep-inducing hormone
• Second bottle offered free of charge during promotions
|
 | Negatives |
|
• Cluttered, confusing website
• Does not contain targeted mood-enhancing ingredients like mineral Lithium
• No details or information provided about ingredients
• Hard-sell tone, a turn-off
|
 | Final Thoughts |
|
After scrolling through interminable pages full of superlatives and assurances of high-quality ingredients and exacting company standards, we found surprisingly little factual information about Great Night Sleep that would appear to set it apart from other basic sleep-enhancing preparations. Not even quantities were listed, and there was no evidence or methodology or citation provided to back up allegations of extreme purity or potency.
Customers who want to improve their state of mind might well benefit from this product if they have trouble falling asleep, but we would strongly encourage them to take a more direct approach to fulfilling their objectives. Look for products that are aimed at quickly and effectively improving one’s outlook on life. Be sure to look for more than just superlatives when shopping around, focusing instead on precise technologies for the active agents—like Orotate carrier systems, ideally with a Micro Vortex Enteric Coating—to ensure benefits that truly do set a product above the competition.
