Hit the “Reset Button” for Better Sleep, Mood, and More!

Do you have a hard time falling asleep or staying asleep?

What about waking up in the morning? Would you rather just stay in bed, huddled under the covers?

Or maybe you feel depressed, have a difficult time with your relationships, or have problems focusing on tasks.

Believe it or not, ALL of these symptoms are linked to one cause.

All you have to do is hit this “reset button” and you’ll be set for better sleep, a brighter mood, and more!

Before the advent of candles and lighting, we followed the sun. When the sun went down, we went to sleep. When the sun rose, we woke.

This is what determined our circadian rhythm (sometimes called your internal clock).

But in the modern age, we have an entirely new schedule… and our bodies haven’t quite caught up yet.

Your circadian rhythm can get thrown off by a number of things, including daylight savings, and changing time zones when you travel.

And when your circadian rhythm gets misaligned, you’re more likely to gain weight, develop Alzheimer’s disease, and feel depressed or anxious.

Getting your clock back on track is a good idea… and there’s a super easy way to do it.

I’m talking about prebiotics.

You may have heard of probiotics, the beneficial microorganisms that help support our health in many ways. Prebiotics are simple dietary compounds that feed the probiotics.

Now, according to researchers at the University of Colorado, Boulder, prebiotics can help us adjust faster when we change time zones.

The research, published in the journal Brain, Behavior and Immunity, found that when rats were fed prebiotics, their circadian rhythm bounced back more quickly than the rats who ate a normal diet.

Part of the reason prebiotics have such an influence is because of the way they affect your gut.

So, add a good supplemental prebiotic to your routine if you are feeling a little off or have traveled recently. You’ll be glad you did!

P.S. If you’re worried about caffeine affecting your circadian rhythm, I don’t blame you. But as it turns out, it could be completely harmless – as long as you don’t do this.
