Res-Q Sleep can help you sleep longer and better

Recent news promotes melatonin’s ability to encourage sleeping longer and better. The results of a new study show that melatonin, an ingredient included in Res-Q Sleep, a dietary supplemental sleep aid, can help you sleep longer. A randomized double blind placebo controlled trial on humans showed that use of melatonin may add an extra hour of sleep. Additionally, the study also showed that melatonin helped people sleep better, improving their “sleep efficiency.”





Melatonin, widely naturally occurring in nature by plants, animals and organisms, is produced in humans primarily in the brain by the pineal gland. Melatonin functions to encourage sleep by promoting the sleep-wake cycle, a cycle of when to awake and fall asleep. Melatonin is beneficial to third shift workers, and individuals who are awake at night, when their body would ordinarily want to go to sleep, and therefore have trouble sleeping during the day. Melatonin supplementation increases levels of melatonin in humans. Melatonin helps the body’s internal clock. Melatonin also benefits those with sleep cycles that are off balance from jet lag due to entering a new time zone.




If you find on occasion that you need extra assistance with falling asleep, and have to get up in the morning, try taking Res-Q Sleep. Res-Q Sleep contains science based melatonin to help re-set your body's natural time clock, along with natural herbs to help you relax so you can fall asleep faster, sleep longer and sleep better. Other companies may offer only one ingredient like melatonin. Res-Q Sleep works because it contains a proprietary combination of multiple ingredients thereby creating a synergistic action that is more effective than one ingredient alone. It is the combination of all the right ingredients that makes Res-Q Sleep an effective product.

Rescued by Fish Oil

An omega-3 article, sent to us courtesy of one of our Res-Q customers, speaks of a coal miner suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. The doctor, having read about the health benefits, decided to give large doses of omega-3 fish oil in an attempt to restore health. This is a true miracle. I have included a section from the article:

“…in less than six months the damage to his heart, kidneys and liver had been reversed. His brain showed signs of neural growth, and his memory had improved. He gradually regained his speech and vision, as well as his ability to walk…”

Although Res-Q 1250 is not intended to cure severe organ damage, this story shows the value of supplementing the diet with a potent, high grade fish oil, like Res-Q 1250.
Studies show time and time again, that the active ingredient in Res-Q 1250 is good for our liver, kidney, brain, and heart. Res-Q 1250 is about more than just the heart.

You Asked: What are the Benefits for Adults with ADD and ADHD taking omega 3?

The omega-3 fatty acids help support a normal brain function. Adults take Res-Q 1250. A lot of studies in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition have been conducted on children. However, adults may obtain the same results. Some of our customers tell us that their children pay attention better, sit and focus longer than they used to.


Low levels of omega-3 fatty acids have been found in these children. Since omega-3 has to be converted into EPA and DHA, supplementation with a potent grade of EPA/DHA is necessary, because the body gets a direct supply of EPA and DHA. Therefore, supplementation may help correct the deficiency.


If a poor dietary intake or a poor ability to metabolize omega-3 into active omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA is happening, then supplementing the diet with a direct source of EPA and DHA, such as Res-Q 1250, would be beneficial to restore levels.


Omega-3 fatty acids are important to the brain development, health, structure, and function of the brain which is comprised of fats. It has been suggested that the type of fat consumed can affect the function of the brain. Only from specific fatty fish can we obtain a sufficient amount of the good omega-3 fats from diet. Due to the fact that children don't like fish, fish is not consumed often enough, and safety issues surround fish consumption, if you are looking for a very good supplement to give your child, a pure, safe omega-3 fatty acid supplement would be very beneficial to supplement the diet to help ensure that omega-3 is obtained. Your brain relies on omega-3 fatty acids for proper health, and function.
