Unlike other sleep aids, ION* Gut + Microbiome and +Restful Sleep gets to the root of sleep issues with a holistic approach to a good night’s rest – mind, body and gut.
A good night’s sleep is the foundation for everything you do. When you don’t get enough of it, your mood dips, your focus fades and your energy levels take a nosedive. And let’s face it, pulling an all-nighter and having no sleep, just doesn’t feel good.
That’s why +Restful Sleep is designed to help you achieve the deep, rejuvenating rest your body and mind deserve.
Its natural ingredients, including L-tryptophan and magnesium, work in harmony to calm your mind, ease tension and prepare you for a night of truly restorative sleep.
Only the good stuff.

Good, deep sleep does more than make you feel great, it also supports critical functions for your body, including balancing critical hormones like cortisol, which regulate your energy and stress levels.
A good night’s sleep means more natural energy and less relying on caffeine that leaves you crashing later.
+Restful Sleep is a holistic approach to a better night’s sleep that targets the symbiotic relationship between gut health (where roughly 95% of serotonin is produced) and healthy sleep.
+Restful Sleep is scientifically formulated with botanicals and adaptogens that work best when paired with the simple but effective Gut + Microbiome formula to help relax both mind and body, promote deep restorative sleep and support long-term cognitive function and mood.
It directly affects brain function, energy levels, heart health, cell regeneration, memory, mood, immune function and weight maintenance – basically everything!
The important thing about sleep isn’t just what happens when we get enough – it’s what happens if we don’t.
Up to 45% of the global population is affected with sleep problems: insufficient sleep, poor quality sleep and irregular sleep patterns.
This is a huge concern because not getting enough shut-eye has some serious ramifications.
Obesity, heart disease, metabolic syndrome, increased risk for insulin-resistance and type 2 diabetes, poor cognition, impaired motor skills and more are all connected to not getting adequate sleep.
A strong immune system needs restorative sleep.
Did you know that sleep and immunity are deeply intertwined?
During deep sleep, your body produces something called “cytokines,” proteins that help fight infection and inflammation. Because +Restful Sleep supports this important process, it helps ensure your immune system gets the restorative rest it needs to keep you strong.
A recent study found adults who slept fewer than 7 hours had a 41% increased risk for developing obesity.
There are a few reasons for this:
Sleep deprivation increases levels of ghrelin, a hormone that makes you feel hungry, and decreases leptin, a hormone that makes you feel full, for one. To make matters worse, those extra hunger cues could have you craving food with more “energy” (aka, calories) which are higher in sugar and fat.
Add all of that to the mix, along with the simple fact that when you’re exhausted, you’re far less motivated to move and you’ve got the perfect recipe for unwanted weight gain.
Not getting enough sleep doesn’t just leave you groggy, it can also have a serious impact on how your body processes energy. When you’re sleep-deprived, your cells become less responsive to insulin, the hormone that helps move glucose from your bloodstream into your muscles and organs for fuel.
Over time, that resistance can cause blood sugar levels to rise, setting the stage for weight gain, insulin resistance, and eventually type 2 diabetes.
In fact, research shows that getting fewer than five hours of sleep a night can increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by nearly 50%.
The good news?
Even a small improvement can make a big difference. When sleep time was increased to six hours, that risk dropped to around 18% – proof that every extra hour of quality rest really does count.
So while diet and exercise often steal the spotlight in conversations about metabolic health, sleep deserves just as much attention. Prioritising those extra hours under the covers might be one of the simplest and most powerful ways to protect your long-term wellbeing.
When it comes to your heart, sleep matters more than you might think.
Research shows that getting fewer than seven hours of sleep a night is linked to a 13% higher risk of death from heart disease and can raise the likelihood of developing high blood pressure, especially for those with conditions like obstructive sleep apnoea.
Your body needs adequate rest to regulate blood pressure, repair blood vessels and manage stress hormones, so when sleep falls short, your cardiovascular system feels the strain.
When you’re consistently short on rest, your body activates stress and immune pathways that trigger inflammatory responses.
Over time, this can contribute to a range of chronic issues, from fatigue and aches to more serious conditions linked to inflammation.
No one likes to hear the words, “You look tired.”
We all know what that means – you look a little run-down, maybe pale or drawn, like the energy’s been drained right out of you. And honestly, when you don’t get a good night’s sleep, you can feel it just as much as you can see it.
They don’t call it beauty sleep for nothing but that phrase barely scratches the surface of what sleep really does for us. Beyond glowing skin and bright eyes, proper rest has been shown to boost academic performance in children, sharpen cognitive function in adults and strengthen the immune system.
The truth is, your body isn’t “resting” while you sleep, it’s repairing. During the night, it circulates essential chemicals that support immunity, clears away toxins that build up in the brain during the day and restores muscles, organs and cells so you can wake up renewed.
In short, getting enough sleep is one of the most powerful things you can do for your health – inside and out.
Waking up feeling bright-eyed and ready to take on the day is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the benefits of sleep. In reality, sleep is far more than a mood booster or a cure for morning grogginess, it’s absolutely essential for your overall health. Skipping out on quality rest doesn’t just mean brain fog or extra yawns; it can seriously impact your energy, focus and even your long-term well-being.
The truth is, sleep affects almost every aspect of your health. And that’s not an exaggeration.
We’ve already shown how it’s crucial for energy, cognitive performance, heart health, cell repair, memory, mood, immune function, and even maintaining a healthy weight. Sleep isn’t just one part of a healthy lifestyle – it’s the foundation for almost everything else and it even plays a role in longevity.
And it’s not only the body that suffers.
Mental health is deeply tied to how well you sleep.
Studies have found strong connections between poor sleep quality and conditions such as depression and anxiety. Sleep deprivation disrupts emotional regulation, making it harder to manage stress, connect socially and even find joy in everyday moments. It can dull your sense of humour, reduce empathy and lead to withdrawal from social situations, all of which can fuel feelings of loneliness and isolation.
Lack of sleep can also endanger those around you
In the UK, around 1 in 8 drivers (13%) admit to having dozed off at the wheel.
Even more startling, studies estimate that up to one quarter (25%) of fatal road crashes in Britain may involve a driver who has fallen asleep.
Why is this such a big deal? Because when you’re sleep‑deprived, your focus, concentration, reflexes and reaction time all slide, not unlike being over the drink‑drive limit.
Driving while tired isn’t just risky, it can be straight‑up dangerous. In fact, UK research shows you’re 20 times more likely to fall asleep at the wheel around 6am compared with 10pm.
And the dangers don’t stop at driving. Sleep deprivation can ripple out into other areas of your life, particularly at work.
When you’re tired, your performance slips, your judgement dims and the risk of errors and accidents goes up. Whether you’re on the road, at your desk or just trying to get through the day, skimping on sleep can have consequences far beyond feeling groggy.
The good news is that prioritising sleep can create a ripple effect of benefits across your health. The flip side is equally true: poor sleep can undermine multiple systems in your body, sometimes in ways you might not immediately notice.
Unfortunately, sleep problems are incredibly common. The World Sleep Society reports that up to 45% of people worldwide struggle with insufficient or low-quality sleep, irregular sleep patterns, or other sleep disturbances.
So what counts as “enough” sleep?
For most adults, the magic number is seven or more hours of high-quality rest each night. While we all know sleep is important, if you’re part of that 45%, you know that actually achieving it can be easier said than done.
This is why +Restful Sleep was created.
+Restful Sleep takes a holistic approach to help you get a better night’s sleep by specifically targeting the symbiotic relationship between a healthy gut and healthy sleep.
Formulated with adaptogens and whole botanicals, this powerful but simple drink mix helps relax both mind and body to promote deep, restorative sleep.
The potent natural ingredients in +Restful Sleep include KSM-66® Organic Ashwagandha, Chamomile, Saffron, L-Tryptophan, Turmeric, Passionflower, Lemon Balm, and Reishi Mushroom. They were selected because, while effective in their own right, they work even better together.
Chamomile and Lemon Balm together can help improve mood and even boost overall relaxation.
Blending Passionflower with Chamomile is particularly useful for calming anxiety and inflammation.
Created to work synergistically with ION* Gut + Microbiome, you’re not only getting a powerful blend of natural ingredients to promote good sleep, you’re also ensuring that you can make the most of it by helping strengthen your gut health, too.
Mix one packet into a glass of cold or warm water (you can sip slowly or take as a quick shot) 15 to 30 minutes before bed. Add 1 tsp of ION* Gut + Microbiome for comprehensive gut-brain health.
A good approach for consistent benefits would be 5 days on, 2 days off to help with the efficacy.

+Restful Sleep is a gentle approach to sleep health and does not use the kind of pharmaceuticals that generally cause grogginess.
However, if you do experience morning grogginess, it likely has more to do with not getting full sleep cycles during rest. A consistent sleep routine (going to bed at the same time every night and waking up at the same time every day) as well as getting the right amount of sleep for you, can help mitigate morning grogginess.
