Natrol Sleep + Recovery Melatonin 6mg With Turmeric and Antioxidant Blend, Dietary Supplement for Restful Sleep and Healthy Inflammatory Response, 30 Capsules, 30 Day Supply

i tried these for the sleepless nights rather than the usual 5mg gummy type. i would say that they work about as well with the difference being these take a bit longer to kick in. i didn't notice any added benefit to taking this with the extra ingredients. the main difference in these is the price. the normal 5mg gummies are about the same price, but you usually get around 90 or so versus the 30 you get here. additionally the capsules are on the larger side and don't have that gummy candy flavor.

Exactly as described

As someone who has suffered in the past with insomnia/difficulty falling asleep, I decided to give this product a try. I have tried different brands/dosages of melatonin in the past with varying degrees of success. I was hopeful that this Natrol brand formulation would prove effective. So far, I have not been disappointed. My bottle arrived in its original box, sealed, and in-date. The bottle is only around half full...the rest is stuffed with cotton during shipping. To me, the capsules are a bit large...I was able to get them down without any issue, but if you have trouble swallowing larger pills or capsules, this product may not work well for you. Each capsule is about 20% larger than a standard caplet of Tylenol. As far as effectiveness, I think this supplement does what it promises. While it still took me a little while to drift off, I definitely slept more soundly and woke up feeling very refreshed. Overall, I do think the melatonin did help me drift off to sleep a bit quicker. While this product is a bit pricey (over $17 for 30 doses or $0.57 per dose), I do think it's worth it in the end, especially if you're a restless/difficult sleeper. I would give it a try!

30x larger sized clear gel caps filled with yellow powder. This is a natural sleep assist supplement formulated with 6 mgs of Melatonin per dose and is blended with turmeric extract, antioxidant compounds and black pepper extract. If you've taken a 6 mg dose of Melatonin in the past then you'll know what to expect. Kicks in nicely for me within 1 hour of consuming and allows me to wake up nice and refreshed with no hangover effect.

I have used a Natrol melatonin supplement every night for the past year and absolutely loved it. It was a fast dissolve tablet that tasted great and worked very well (helped me fall asleep quickly and stay asleep). Because that product worked so well, I started using other Natrol products like their Biotin and liked it just as much!Now that I saw this as well as one other blend that can be used for sleep... I had to order and try! These worked well and helped me fall asleep as I would expect them too but overall didn't seem to work quite as well as their fast dissolve product (and definitely didn't have the fun benefit of tasting great).While I can see the reason that some people may prefer this, I will definitely be going back to my fast dissolve Natrol blend. All in all, Natrol is the brand to use... just not this specific blend for me.

I have been taking Natrol brand Melatonin tablets for years to help me sleep on those nights when I have trouble falling asleep, so when I saw these new Natrol Sleep+ Recovery capsules, I decided to give them a try. The Natrol Melatonin tablets I normally take only contain Melatonin, while these capsules also contain Turmeric, Green Tea Extract, Blueberry Extract, Quercetin, Resveratrol, and Black Pepper. Also, the dosage of Melatonin is slightly higher at 6mg vs the 5mg I usually take. I have tried these capsules twice so far, and I honestly can't tell the difference between these and the Melatonin tablets I have been taking for years. Well, there is one difference. I can buy 250 of the Natrol 5mg Melatonin tablets for about $9 at Costco (Less when they are on sale). But only 30 of these Sleep+ Recovery capsules cost about $17 on Amazon. So you can do the math, but I can't tell that the other ingredients are doing anything extra to help me sleep better. So I think I'll just stick with the regular 5mg Melatonin tablets I am used to. A bottle of 250 lasts more than a year for my whole family, since we only take them as needed.

Here is some context for my review. I have been using sleep supplements on and off for about 8 years. The supplements that work best for me are those that help me fall asleep, stay asleep and wear off before the alarm. The best supplement I have used was a combination of melatonin and CBD that I bought on Amazon. It was heavenly, as a single gummy would put me in an enjoyable sleep. When I woke up at night, I would just sink right back in where I left off. Sadly, something happened with the brand I loved so much. The manufacturer changed the formula without telling anyone (same bottle, same branding) and I no longer had a good experience. Since then I have tried a lot of supplements looking to recapture whatever it was that worked so well for me. This particular supplement is produced by a brand I am familiar with, so I had high hopes. But after a couple of nights with it, I knew it was very similar to a lot of the supplements I have been trying out. Nothing special. In fact, my sleep scores actually went down and I felt groggy when waking up. So, this isn't what I was hoping for. Overall it is just very average and I do not want or need the 'added nutrients'. In fact, too many nutrients can interact with medications, they should just sell a sleep supplement and not try to badge it as a do-it-all pill.

This works to help you fall asleep and sleep more soundly. The addition of turmeric and other supplements seems like a gimmick, but I have genuinely received a great night's sleep with it.I've used a plain Natrol melatonin product for years and was interested to try some of their new combinations that include additional supplements that should help with body recovery. The one prominent disadvantage of this (for me) is the 6mg of melatonin in each capsule. I was previously taking 3mg and this can be a heavy hit of melatonin that I don't necessarily want my body to become accustomed to. That being said, it's worked solidly for me so far and I anticipate taking it on nights when I either need to get a really good night's rest or am having more difficulty falling asleep.
