The Vitalisom System for relief of stress, fatigue and insomnia.

Too good to be true? Three major complaints--stress, fatigue and insomnia--solved all at once. It can't be real, right? Yes it can. Our research at Nutraceutical Research, Inc. identified a key link between fatigue and insomnia. Knowing this link, we were able to put together two nutraceutical (vitamins, herbs and nutrients) formula's that can address all three of these complaints. What is the link?...

The link is stress. Stress is the underlying cause of most insomnia, and stress and insomnia together disrupt body functions leading to fatigue or low energy levels.

Here's a summation of what we found...

Nutraceutical Research, Inc. Research Findings:*

Stress is the most common cause of insomnia.

Stress raises the levels of stress hormones (cortisol, CRH, ACTH). It also disrupts their normal 24-hour rhythm of secretion. One of the functions of the stress hormones is to induce a state of arousal (awakeness). Normally the level of stress hormones should be low at night. During times of excess stress, their levels are higher during the day and at night.

At night when you try to get to sleep, the stress hormone induced state of arousal prevents you from getting to sleep, and/or keeps waking you up during the night. In either case you don't get healthy, rejuvenating sleep.

Sleep is when your body normally rejuvenates and repairs itself. For instance human growth hormone (sometimes referred to as the hormonal "fountain of youth") is secreted in highest amounts during deep sleep. Less than healthy sleep prevents this nightly rejuvenation. The combination of daytime stress and night time insomnia begins a vicious cycle that takes a toll on your health.

Often clients report feeling "wired" and "tired" (fatigued) at the same time. It seems contradictory. But this is a result of the stress hormones acting in opposition to your natural sleep cycle.

At first your energy system still responds to your demands and you can get yourself in gear in the morning with a cup of coffee, some other stimulant, or by just pushing yourself.

If allowed to progress too far you can reach a stage of "burnout" or adrenal exhaustion. At this point you are fatigued day and night, with no energy resources. It feels like putting your foot on the gas pedal, but nothing happens. You have no energy.

But still (paradoxically), because of the action of stress hormones, you have difficulty sleeping, and the disruption of the sleep cycle prevents the body from rejuvenating itself. You can't get your energy back.

The Vitalisom AM and PM System

Together, Vitalisom AM and PM are designed to break the positive feedback loop wherein stress hormones induce insomnia, and... insomnia induces fatigue and more stress.

For success Vitalisom AM is taken each morning with breakfast and Vitalisom PM is taken an hour before going to bed at night. They are taken consistently each morning and each night.

How not to take Vitalisom AM and PM.

  • Vitalisom AM and PM are not drugs and should not be taken as you would a drug. For instance, don't take Vitalisom AM only on the mornings that you need a boost. Vitalisom AM does not contain stimulants and consequently won't give you the shot in the arm that caffeine does.
  • Vitalisom PMis mildly sedating and will promote healthy sleep. It is not designed to "knock you out" the way a prescriptive sleep medication will. It is designed to return you to a cycle of healthy sleep each and every night, when taken regularly at bedtime.
