			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8230;A sleeping pill. Unlike prescription sleeping pills,            Sleepasil           is a dietary supplement that helps you relax and  fall asleep           without           the fear of harmful side  effects, such as grogginess when you           wake           up,  dizziness, not being able to wake up when you need to and            becoming addicted to it.</p>
<p>&#8230;Addictive. Prescription sleeping pills, in general, come            in           several types. These medications, classified as <em>sedative             hypnotics, </em>act  by working on receptors in the brain to           slow down            the nervous system. Some medications are used more for            inducing           sleep, while others are used for staying asleep. Some            prescription           sleeping pills have been found to  carry a higher risk of           becoming           habit forming.  Sleepasil is not addictive because it does not           interfere with  the body&#8217;s natural ability to acquire sleep and           to            stay asleep.</p>
<p>&#8230;An OTC sleeping pill.             Here             there must be a  fine distinction between what Sleepasil is             and what              other OTC sleeping pills actually are. The main ingredient              of other             over-the-counter sleeping pills are  antihistamines such as             Diphenhydramine and Doxylamine.              Though both have been proven to induce sleep, their side              effects such             as drowsiness the next day, clumsiness and  the feeling of             being-off-balance, constipation, and blurred  vision, are             common and             severe. Sleepasil, as a  dietary supplement containing only             all-natural plant  extracts and Melatonin, does not carry             such risks              of side effects.</p>
<p>&#8230;The magic bullet to             cure             your ills.  Sleepasil may help you get the sleep you need,             but it will              not rid you of any underlying disease or psychological              condition that             may have caused you to be sleepless in  the first place.             Certain             diseases, such as  arthritis, asthma, heart disease and             chronic pain,              and certain psychological and mental conditions, such as              stress and             anxiety, may cause chronic insomnia. This is  where we             recommend first             and foremost that you  consult a doctor, and make the             necessary              lifestyle changes.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you’re ill, or                 something’s bugging your mind, or  you need to resolve                 some interpersonal conflicts, a  caring friend or loved                 one would advise you to “sleep it  off”, and when you                 wake up from a good night’s slumber,  you almost always                 feel better, refreshed, a bit more  cheerful, and ready                 to face your issues and resolve  them.</p>
<p>But what if you haven’t                 been able to sleep things  off? What if, in the morning,                 you’re grumpier, crankier,  more depressed, and feel                 physically worse off than  yesterday? Chances are, you                 didn’t get those forty winks  you so needed. Now, imagine                 that this sleepless episode  repeats itself over the                 course of a week, two weeks, or  a month.</p>
<p>Welcome to this garish                 nightmare called insomnia.  Insomnia, or chronic                 insomnia, technically speaking, is  habitual                 sleeplessness; the failure to get enough sleep  on most                 nights over a one-month period. It affects at  least 30                 percent of healthy seniors. When you are unable  to go to                 sleep when you first go to bed, or wake up  during the                 night and are unable to go back to sleep (in  the                 vernacular, “hindi na mahuli ang tulog”), then you  might                 be suffering from insomnia.</p>
<p>Insomnia will hit us one                 time or another during our  lifetime. It has many causes,                 chief of which can be an  underlying serious illness,                 psychological distress,  anxiety, or stress. Insomnia                 that is temporary usually  won’t have lasting ill effects                 on the individual.  However, it is chronic insomnia that                 you should be truly  wary of. Aside from it being a                 likely symptom of  another serious physical, mental, or                 psychological  condition, chronic sleep disorders can                 themselves lead  to life threatening physical and mental                 conditions.</p>
<p>About half of insomnia                 cases can be attributed to  depression and psychological                 disorders such as anxiety,  stress, or grief, and to a                 wide variety of physical  causes, including arthritis,                 asthma, breathing problems,  hypoglycemia,                 hypothyroidism, indigestion, kidney or  heart disease,                 muscle aches, and Parkinson’s disease.</p>
<p>The intake of various                 beverages and drugs can also  cause insomnia. Caffeine,                 many antidepressants, the  antiseizure medication                 phenytoin, most appetite  suppressants, beta-blockers                 (medications used for high  blood pressure and heart                 ailments, the decongestant  pseudoephedrine (found in                 many cold and allergy  remedies), and thyroid hormone                 replacement drugs, can  also lead to insomnia.</p>
<p>The lack of nutrients                 calcium and magnesium can cause  an individual to wake up                 after a few hours and not be  able to return to sleep.                 Systemic disorders involving  the brain, digestive                 system, endocrine system, heart,  kidneys, liver, lungs                 and pancreas all may affect sleep.  Poor nutritional                 habits and a sedentary lifestyle can  also disrupt sleep.</p>
<p>Chronic sleeping disorders,                 or sleep deprivation  lasting more than three days, can                 result in serious  deterioration in overall performance                 and can even result  in mild personality changes. Lack of                 sleep has also  been known to cause premature aging                 (indeed, we do look  older when we’re puyat).</p>
<p>Women who suffer from                 copper and iron deficiencies,  observes research                 psychologist Dr. James Penland, are at  a higher risk of                 suffering from insomnia and certain  sleep disorders. A                 hair analysis can reveal if you are  iron deficient.</p>
<p>Waking up 200 times a night</p>
<p>Of special concern is sleep                 apnea, which, in the  United States alone, affects about                 20 million Americans.  Sleep apnea is commonly associated                 with snoring and  extremely irregular breathing                 throughout the night. In  sleep apnea, breathing actually                 stops for as long as two  minutes at a time while the                 individual is asleep.. When  breathing stops, the level                 of oxygen in the blood  drops, resulting in oxygen                 deprivation, The individual  then awakens, startled and                 gasping. A person with sleep  apnea may awaken as many as                 200 times throughout the  night, with him or her not even                 remembering these  awakenings.</p>
<p>Aside from disrupting                 normal sleep and causing  extreme sleepiness during the                 day, sleep apnea is  associated with more serious health                 problems. People who  have sleep apnea tend to have                 higher than normal blood  pressure and are more likely to                 have strokes than the  general population. They also face                 an increased risk of  heart disease, and also seem to                 have a  higher-than-normal incidence of emotional and                 psychotic  disorders. Experts attribute this to what they                 call a  “dream deficit”—a lack of adequate                 rapid-eye-movement  (REM) sleep, the stage of sleep in                 which dreaming  occurs. A person with sleep apnea often                 cannot settle  into REM sleep for even the eight to 12                 seconds it takes  to have a normal, healthy dream.</p>
<p>And it has been                 scientifically accepted that a person  who doesn’t dream                 isn’t in a proper state of mind.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Your sleep is unique, like fingerprints.</h3>
<p>The quality and length of sleep is different for every individual.  Some wake up refreshed and ready for the day after getting only as  little as five hours of sleep. Others need to get up to 10 hours worth  of shuteye. On average, though, adults need 7 to 8 hours of sleep.</p>
<p>As we all know, sleep is as much an essential component of life among  other animal species as it is with us—the only variables apparently  being the duration and depth of sleep. The natural triggers for sleep  have been biologically synchronized with the time of day. For most  animals, including us humans, the darkness of night triggers sleep.</p>
<p>Sleep is the time when the body can recharge and repair itself  without being burdened by the daytime rigors and pressures of survival,  or be distracted by our conscious brain&#8217;s worries. Think of it like a  roadworks project: The construction gets done faster and more thoroughly  when there&#8217;s no traffic to bother the workmen and there&#8217;s no sun to  weaken them and slow down the work.</p>
<p>So when you wake up the next day after a good night&#8217;s sleep, it&#8217;s  just like your body and brain is riding on newly paved and widened  road—the body ache is gone, any wound you have has healed faster, you&#8217;ve  remembered the lyrics to a song, the name of a friend you bumped into  yesterday (but was too tired to remember his name at the time), and  ideas for an office presentation are coming in torrents. That&#8217;s the  miracle of sleep, something akin to being born again every morning.</p>
<p>Sleep is a heightened anabolic state, accentuating the growth and  rejuvenation of the immune, nervous, skeletal and muscular systems</p>
<p>Sleep timing is controlled by the circadian clock, sleep-wake  homeostasis, and in humans, within certain bounds, willed behavior. The  circadian clock—an inner timekeeping, temperature-fluctuating,  enzyme-controlling device—works in tandem with adenosine, a  neurotransmitter that inhibits many of the bodily processes associated  with wakefulness. Adenosine is created over the course of the day; and  high levels of this neurotransmitter lead to sleepiness. In diurnal  animals, sleepiness occurs as the circadian element causes melatonin  production and a gradual decrease in core body temperature. The timing  is affected by one&#8217;s chronotype. It is the circadian rhythm that  determines the ideal timing of a correctly structured and restorative  sleep episode.</p>
<p>Normal sleep consists of two main states, designated rapid-eye  movement (REM) and non-rapid- eye-movement (non-REM) sleep. It is REM  sleep that is most often associated with dreaming. The stages of sleep  are further broken down into the following:</p>
<p><strong>Light sleep stage 1</strong>. We drift in and out and can be awakened easily. Our eyes move slowly and muscle activity slows.</p>
<p><strong>Light sleep stage 2</strong>: Our eye movement stops and our brain waves become slower, with occasional bursts of rapid waves called sleep spindles.</p>
<p><strong>Deep sleep stage 3</strong>: Extremely slow brain waves called delta waves appear, interspersed with smaller, faster waves.</p>
<p><strong>Deep sleep stage 4</strong>: The brain produces mostly delta waves. There are no eye movements and no muscle activity.</p>
<p><strong>Stage 5</strong>: REM sleep. Breathing becomes more rapid, irregular  and shallow. The eyes jerk rapidly while limb muscles become temporarily  paralyzed. Dreams almost always happen in this stage, but may occur in  other sleep stages.</p>
<p>It takes about 2 hours to go through all five stages of sleep, after  which they are normally repeated. REM sleep usually occurs about 90  minutes after we fall asleep. Adults spend half their sleep time in  stage 2 sleep, 20 percent in REM sleep, and 30 percent in the other  stages. Infants, on the other hand, start out spending half their sleep  time in REM sleep. Older people spend less time in delta sleep (stages 3  and 4), and some may not experience it at all.</p>
<p>So, yes, indeed, all humans need sleep, but every individual has  unique requirements to be able to classify him or herself to have had  sound sleep. So how would you know if you have been sleeping well or  sleeping soundly the past days, or nights? Here’s a handy rule of thumb:  If you’ve found yourself suddenly dozing off at the dinner table, or  while watching an engaging movie, or maybe even during a conversation or  (heaven forbid) while driving, that’s a sure sign that’s something’s  amiss with your own body clock.</p>
<p>Don’t ignore these warning signs, because if your sleep problems  become chronic, more serious physical and mental issues will almost  certainly arise.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hops (Humulus lupulus) is another potent herb that offers a multitude of health benefits, chief of which as an aid to sleep. The flowers, fruit and leaves of this plant have traditionally been placed inside a pillowcase to help individuals get their needed Zs. Hops helps reduce and relieve anxiety, thus helping prepare an individual to sleep. Aside from this, hops also stimulates the appetite, and is useful for cardiovascular disorders, hyperactivity, nervousness, pain, restlessness, shock, toothaches, and even ulcers.</p>
<p>As a precaution, though, persons taking antidepressants should not take hops.</p>
<p>Sleepasil, an herbal sleep supplement manufactured by Boscogen       Inc and exclusively distributed in the Philippines by Organica,       contains all these four key ingredients to help you sleep soundly,       just as nature intended you to do.</p>
<p>Sleepasil is well within the safe recommended dosages of each       active ingredient.</p>
<p>However, should you still suffer         from inadequate amounts of sleep after three weeks of         regularly taking Sleepasil, then you should consult a health         professional.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Chamomile, particularly the German variety (Matricaria recutita) is a member of the daisy family, and its flowers are used to make the herbal supplements. Traditionally, chamomile has been used to treat mouth ulcers, skin irritations, and general anxiety, and there is an increased interest in its anti-cancer properties, as well. Chamomile, however, is best known as a soluble tea to help people fall and stay asleep.</p>
<p>Individuals who have allergies to plants in the Asteraceae family (eg aster, mums, mugwort, ragweed) are not encouraged to take Chamomile, as possible side effects of this herb include rashes or shortness of breath.</p>
<p>Sleepasil, an herbal sleep supplement manufactured by Boscogen       Inc and exclusively distributed in the Philippines by Organica,       contains all these four key ingredients to help you sleep soundly,       just as nature intended you to do.</p>
<p>Sleepasil is well within the safe recommended dosages of each       active ingredient.</p>
<p>However, should you still suffer         from inadequate amounts of sleep after three weeks of         regularly taking Sleepasil, then you should consult a health         professional.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Melatonin is a neurohormone naturally produced by our pineal glands, a cone-shaped structure in the brain. As an antioxidant, melatonin has been found to be able to penetrate the mitochondria, the cells’ “power plant” that produces energy, and protect the mitochondria from free radical damage. That’s good news for people looking to slow down the aging process.</p>
<p>But the better news for the sleep-deprived is that Melatonin helps our bodies keep in sync with the rhythms of day and night, thus helping regulate sleep. The production and release of Melatonin in our bodies is stimulated by darkness, and inhibited by light. For individuals (especially business process outsourcing and call center agents) who might have no choice but to sleep during the day, a melatonin supplement ensures a steady supply of this crucial hormone and antioxidant.</p>
<p>Extensive research and anecdotal evidence show no toxic levels of melatonin supplementation, and is thus considered a side effect-free sleeping aid for both adults and for children suffering from physical problems resulting to sleep disorders.</p>
<p>Sleepasil, an herbal sleep supplement manufactured by Boscogen       Inc and exclusively distributed in the Philippines by Organica,       contains all these four key ingredients to help you sleep soundly,       just as nature intended you to do.</p>
<p>Sleepasil is well within the safe recommended dosages of each       active ingredient.</p>
<p>However, should you still suffer         from inadequate amounts of sleep after three weeks of         regularly taking Sleepasil, then you should consult a health         professional.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Valerian root, from the Valerian herb (scientific name Valeriana officinalis), is a favorite among experts to overcome insomnia and sleeplessness, mainly because of its numerous other health benefits. Aside from acting as a sedative, the Valerian root or rhizome also improves blood circulation, reduces mucus from colds, and helps stem anxiety, fatigue, high blood pressure, irritable bowel syndrome, menstrual and muscle cramps, nervousness, pain, spasms, and ulcers—conditions which, if otherwise unchecked, could by themselves cause sleeplessness.</p>
<p>The Valerian herb is native to Europe and Asia, but now can be found all around the world. Traditionally, the root has been used to treat varied conditions—from headaches to insomnia, to digestive disorders and urinary tract infections, and even angina. The root is believed to contain the herb’s active ingredient called valerenic acid.</p>
<p>Studies of Valerian Root use among adults have shown that the herb helps reduce the time it takes to fall asleep, and even improves the quality of sleep. A 2007 study conducted at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia showed that almost 6 percent of the more than 31,000 people surveyed said they used Valerian Root supplements to help them overcome insomnia.</p>
<p>Within reasonable dosages (meaning not more than 600 mg per day), side effects of the Valerian Root are rare, and these may include headache, gastrointestinal distress, or dizziness.</p>
<p>Sleepasil, an herbal sleep supplement manufactured by Boscogen       Inc and exclusively distributed in the Philippines by Organica,       contains all these four key ingredients to help you sleep soundly,       just as nature intended you to do.</p>
<p>Sleepasil is well within the safe recommended dosages of each       active ingredient.</p>
<p>However, should you still suffer         from inadequate amounts of sleep after three weeks of         regularly taking Sleepasil, then you should consult a health         professional.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you need a prescription to buy           your regular supply of  vitamins? Do you need to get your           doctor&#8217;s approval so you can  buy a painkiller for your           headache or body pains?</p>
<p>There are things safe enough to           buy from your local  drugstore that they do not require a           prescription. Vitamins  and food supplements are some of them. So are the more established pain killers and flu           medicines. These are over-the-counter (OTC) items, and their           documented adverse side effects, if           there are any, are almost always minor and temporary.</p>
<p>Sleepasil has been classified as           an over-the-counter (OTC)  sleeping aid or dietary supplement           by the Philippine Food and Drug               Administration. <strong>It</strong> contains a special blend of all-natural            ingredients&#8211;Melatonin, Valerian Root, Chamomile, and            Hops&#8211;that help you relax and fall asleep. This blend of            all-natural ingredients—combined with varying amounts of            natural extracts of Wild Jujube Seed, Scullcap, Passion            Flower, and Calcium and Magnesium—assures you of product            efficacy and safety.</p>
<p>By following the proper and           recommended dosage, Sleepasil  can provide you the peace of           mind that comes with knowing that  you are taking only what           Nature provides—nothing more,  nothing less.</p>
<p>Do consult a medical           professional, however, if you are on  regulated medication for           a health condition, are pregnant or  lactating, have a history           of allergies, or if you just simply  want to make sure.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Show us a person who doesn’t need           to sleep, and we’ll show  you someone who doesn’t need to           breathe. That’s how essential  sleep is to life. Without sleep,           there would literally be no  waking moments, and no life. That           is as certain as night  follows the day, or the day follows the           night (whatever your  perspective).</p>
<h3>Everybody needs help sometimes…</h3>
<p>The cycle of sleep and           wakefulness has been built in into  our systems, and has           evolved over millions of years to enable  us to be awake and           alert during the day, and to make us rest  and fall asleep           during the night. However, humans as we are,  modern life and           living has made it inevitable that, at one  point or another in           our lives, we will encounter some  difficulty in maintaining           this cycle, or getting sleep when we  need to.</p>
<p>Such difficulties in sleeping can           be caused by a number of  factors—chief among them the           increasing stresses of coping  with daily life. Stress rears           its ugly, unsettling head in a  number of ways, but the result           is often the same—nights spent  awake, resulting in days spent           less productively.</p>
<p>Certain physical conditions can           also keep us awake when we  should be asleep. Medical           conditions such as arthritis,  asthma, heart disease, and even           Parkinson’s often result in  lack of sleep and restlessness.</p>
<p>But more than any other physical           condition, it is stress  that keeps humans up at night.           Stress—the psychological  pressures of work, relationships,           society, and from living in  an increasingly competitive and           complex society—affects most  the mind. And the mind, as we all           know, is a powerful thing;  powerful enough to disrupt what           eons of evolution has  perfected in us. When our mind becomes           too preoccupied with  the “what ifs”, “what ought to bes”, and           the “what nows”, the  brain is unable to order the rest of the           body to “log out” and  go on &#8220;sleep mode&#8221;.</p>
<h3>Get help naturally…</h3>
<p>It is during such times that we           do feel the desire to get a  good night’s sleep. And in truth,           your body needs it. Look to  Mother Nature, then, to provide           you with an all-natural and  gentle push from vertical to           horizontal. It is nature, the  provider and nurturer of life,           that is, after all, the source  of our well-being.</p>
<p>Sleepasil is an herbal sleep           supplement containing  naturally occurring ingredients that           have been found, time and  again throughout history, to help           individuals get a restful  sleep. These ingredients are           Valerian Root, Melatonin,  Chamomile, and Hops.</p>
