During menopause, your body undergoes numerous changes. In addition to the discomforts of menopause itself, you may also experience sleep problems.
It is precisely during this period, when you need more sleep, that insomnia is more common. It's no wonder you sometimes feel a little less well during this time!
Fortunately, there are several ways to tackle this problem. In this blog, you'll discover what you can do to sleep better during menopause.
The effect of menopause on your sleep
Menopause is accompanied by changes in your hormonal balance, which can have a negative impact on your mental and physical health. One of the best-known symptoms is insomnia. For some women, the complaints persist even after menopause. So definitely take the problem seriously!
Poor sleep increases the risk of depression, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Women even have an increased risk during menopause!
Problems with insomnia are usually caused by hot flashes, your mood, or changes in your hormones. This not only causes sleep problems at night, but you will also notice the consequences the next day.
Poor or insufficient sleep makes you irritable during the day, less able to concentrate, and lacking in energy.

Ready to improve your sleep quality? It will only take you a few seconds.
Our formula was designed to be not only effective but also pleasant. My friend increased her deep sleep from 30 minutes to 110 minutes per night!
Why is it better not to buy sleeping pills to improve your sleep?
Average sleeping pills are dangerous and full of chemicals.
They often contain a high dose of melatonin, which can lead to habituation, dependence, addiction, overdose, and even death!
In the long term, they can also be very harmful to your memory: several studies show a link between taking sleeping pills and Alzheimer's.
Apply this first before trying our powerful solution
Most people who complain about fatigue sleep only 10 minutes deeply each night. You can easily increase this to 1 to 2 hours per night.
Some tips to sleep better:
- Maintain a consistent sleep schedule.
- Do not drink caffeine or alcohol in the evening.
- Do not take naps during the day.
- Exercise regularly.
- Expose yourself less to light in the evening.
- Make sure your heating is not too hot.
- Ensure more exposure to natural light during the day.
- ...
But that might not be enough to improve your sleep...
You now know that the older you get, the less melatonin your body produces. To help your body produce enough melatonin, it's smart to supplement with two active ingredients.
- Take sufficient vitamin B6: this will be converted into melatonin by your body.
- Increase your melatonin yourself with melatonin supplements: a healthy, non-addictive amount is about 0.3 mg/day.
A formula with 3 powerful herbs
Use a mix of these 3 powerful herbs to calm your body and mind and sleep better. This way, you can fall asleep when you want, not when your body decides.
Ready to sleep soundly with these 3 powerful herbs?
- L-theanine
- Valerian
- Chamomile
1. L-theanine: find your inner peace in the chaos of everyday life
L-theanine does several things to calm you both physically and mentally.
I won't bore you with the science behind it, just remember the following:
- By taking L-theanine in the evening, your muscles will relax from their constant tension throughout the day.
- It slows down your heart rate, which is necessary to fall asleep.
- It acts on your nervous system, thereby relieving your stress from throughout the day.
2. Valerian: enhances the calming effect for an even better result
Valerian works in a similar way to L-theanine and therefore also has a calming effect on your body.
Valerian not only calms your body, but it also inhibits the substances that break down your calming substances. This way, it enhances the calming effect.
3. Chamomile: organize your thoughts with the peace and power of chamomile
Chamomile has a calming effect on your body and acts more deeply on your physical relaxation. Chamomile is widely known and often drunk as tea.
To get the best effect, you need to combine it with other calming substances, but this is not always easy. The most effective method will surprise you.
It helps your muscles relax.
It works against inflammation.
It stimulates digestion and is good for your gut flora.
But how can I easily take these 3 substances?
These natural substances are not so easy to find, expensive, and unpleasant to take purely.
And how much should you take? Current solutions are barely sustainable in your daily routine.
- You forget to take them (consistently) because there's nothing enjoyable about it.
- The taste is often bad.
- The capsules or pills are sometimes so large that they are difficult to swallow.
- They are often not effective and not well absorbed by your body.
A scientific vitamin gummy that contains everything you need
My demanding job brought a lot of stress. I was tense and suffered from various symptoms.
At night, I had trouble falling asleep, and when I finally did, I often woke up sweating and restless, unable to fall back asleep.
I had to simplify my routine so I could balance my work and health. I couldn't follow complicated routines every day because I often forgot them and didn't really enjoy them.
That's how I discovered these ingredients.
I started making herbal tea at home with valerian, L-theanine, and chamomile, took vitamin B6 pills, and started using a melatonin spray.
But I knew it could be better.
After a week, I started forgetting the steps. I didn't have time to make that tea every day and order all those ingredients.
Do you realize how expensive those supplements are? I spent 80 euros a month!
You should be able to get powerful sleep benefits in the most enjoyable way; by eating a tasty treat. Imagine how much fun that would be.
So that's how I started GIMMY.
It took 1 year for us, together with 3 pharmacists, to arrive at this formula.
