Grogginess. Irritability. And downright exhaustion.
A type of exhaustion that 5 cups of coffee can’t even cure.
If falling asleep (and staying asleep) is the hardest thing you do in a day, the perfect sleep solution may just exist…
50 to 70 million Americans are affected by a sleeping disorder. This can result in chronic disease, mental disorders, injury, a dangerous decline in daily functioning, and even death (1).
Based on a 2009 report analyzed by the Center for Disease and Control, 74,571 adults across 12 states responded with the following sleep difficulties:
Now, 13 years later, Americans are still sleepy an average of three times a week. And the knee-jerk reaction for 62% of them is to quote-on-quote “shake it off”. As you’ve probably figured out, shaking it off won’t mitigate the irritability, pounding headache, or exhaustion that sleep deprivation entails (2).
So what can you do for better sleep? Is there a nighttime sleep aid, sleep-promoting tea, or natural home remedy that you can turn to?
(Yes…yes there is.)
Collagen PM is a natural nighttime sleep aid that contains 5 sleep-promoting ingredients: Grass-fed collagen, GABA, L-theanine, magnesium, and melatonin.
Our Collagen PM Nighttime Peptide Formula uses natural ingredients to help calm your mind & body to promote restful sleep & whole-body recovery.
If you are constantly wondering what to do if you can’t sleep, this is it.
It was intentionally crafted to help you fall asleep faster while also getting deeper, higher-quality sleep. Learn what each ingredient is, along with its unique sleep-promoting benefits…
Grass-fed collagen is an ingredient with numerous health benefits that are known to enhance skin, hair, nails, bones, digestion, and now—sleep.
Out of the 18 amino acids in collagen, glycine is the most abundant. It’s also the amino acid that positively impacts sleep. Being an inhibitory neurotransmitter (meaning: it doesn’t stimulate the brain), it helps calm the central nervous system, making relaxation—and falling asleep—much easier (3).
One serving of Collagen PM contains 10 grams of grass-fed collagen and 2,200 milligrams of glycine.
Gamma-aminobutyric acid (or GABA) is the main inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, meaning it suppresses stimulation. This gives GABA powerful stress-reducing and sleep-enhancing effects that millions of Americans desire.
When GABA levels are low, stress, anxiety, and sleep disturbances like insomnia arise (4, 5).
One serving of Collagen PM contains 2 grams of GABA.
L-theanine is an amino acid that’s bursting at the seams with relaxation benefits—without the downside of drowsiness (6).
Based on a number of sleep studies, it’s suggested that one should consume 200 milligrams of L-theanine before bed to support higher quality sleep—not by sedation but by the reduction of anxiety (6).
One serving of Collagen PM contains 200 milligrams of L-theanine.
Magnesium may be one of the most underrated minerals of them all. So much so that nearly 50% of Americans don’t get enough of it (7).
In one double-blind study, 46 elderly individuals were given magnesium (500 mg) or a placebo daily for 8 weeks. Sleep, physical activity, and one’s insomnia severity index (ISI) were logged.
The results are promising…
Those supplementing with magnesium experienced the following (8):
One serving of Collagen PM contains 10 milligrams of magnesium.
Melatonin—also dubbed the “sleep hormone” or the “darkness hormone” is a sleep-inducing molecule that your body naturally produces on its own. Upon nightfall, melatonin levels begin to rise and continue to elevate throughout the night, finally peaking at around three o’clock in the morning (9, 10).
In a review of 19 studies including 1,683 individuals, melatonin was examined as a treatment for sleep disorders. Significant outcomes included a significant reduction in the time it takes to fall asleep, an increase in sleep time, and an improvement in overall sleep quality (11).
One serving of Collagen PM contains 5 milligrams of melatonin.
Our Collagen PM Nighttime Peptide Formula uses natural ingredients to help calm your mind & body to promote restful sleep & whole-body recovery.
When first beginning your supplementation with Collagen PM, I recommend starting with just half a scoop (or 7.5 grams).
Then after 2 or 3 nights, you can increase to one full scoop, if needed.
One full scoop of Collagen PM contains the following:
Sleep is important, but how much sleep do you need to stay healthy and alert?
According to the National Sleep Foundation, the recommended amount of sleep, based on age, is the following (12):
Getting adequate amounts of sleep each night has an array of health benefits, including (13):

Just take it from our customers who’ve gone from sleep-deprived to sleep-revived:
Chris from Florida got the best sleep of his life: “Taking Collagen PM has given me quite literally the best sleep of my life, leaving me able to wake up totally refreshed and ready to go. It's shockingly effective, and doesn't make me groggy in the morning whatsoever.”
Kate from Texas fell asleep fast and woke up feeling fresh: “I was surprised that within 45 minutes of taking Collagen PM, I got very sleepy and was able to sleep a full 8 hours without any tossing and turning! Other sleep aids make me feel like a zombie in the morning, but Collagen PM helps me fall asleep faster (and stay asleep all throughout the night) without any morning grogginess the next day.”
Chad from California no longer wakes up during the middle of the night: “I normally sleep very well. However, I had a habit of waking up at least once during the middle of the night. Not with Collagen PM though. I began having completely uninterrupted sleep for the first time in years. Wow! This has made such a huge impact on my energy, mood, health, and performance. I feel like I found something I didn't even know was missing.”
