Jujube Seed Decoction (Suan Zao Ren Tang)

You're supposed to take 8 of these, twice a day. I found it hard to get the timing right, especially since most of the ingredients are herbs I have often found helpful when I needed MORE energy. I'm sure I'm missing some key element of Chinese medicine. My mindset is that if you need to be tired, you take a thing that makes you tired: I suppose that this leads to imbalance.I took these until they were gone, but the gigantic dosage, which I had to remember to take well before bedtime, and the hesitance I have about compressed herbal pills after some bad experiences, means I probably won't be continuing.

Sometimes I have problem falling asleep due to stress. I take these 30 minutes before I go to bed and it helps relaxes me. I take 8 pills if I have a lot of stress and 4 if I just need something to calm me down. When I take the full strength (8 pills), I can feel it kick in after 15~20 minutes. The effects on me are quite noticeable usually. It may not work for everyone as it does not seem to have much effect on my wife. However, it works very well for me unless I have way too much coffee. I use a Microsoft Band 2 to monitor my sleep, and it clearly shows that I have a much better sleep (lower and fewer spikes in heart-rate during the night) when I take these.

Great reviews so I purchased it and seemed to benefit from better sleep. I started with a half dose. Upon arrival at an out of town event I started taking the recommended dosage. Immediately started feeling awful. I thought I may have to be hospitalized since heart palpitations started and were getting worse until a Doctor told me it was probably due to this supplement. Felt like I had a bad case of the flu without many symptoms such as fever/chills... Felt so horrible I had to leave an important seminar that was quite expensive since learning was impossible after getting so sick from this supplement. Reviews seemed great, but my body had a reaction for the first time due to a supplement. Never had reaction to medications either. Can not recommend this product due to my experience. Heart palpitations ended the day after I stopped use of this product. I had purchased the product this year and started taking it in March 2015.

This formula might work for some people, but not me. It contains licorice, which is a stimulant and has kept me up for the two days/nights that I have tried it. I can't take it anymore.However, I've heard that for some people, licorice will help them sleep. So you can still give it a try. It just didn't work for me.

I've never been a good sleeper, but once I hit my 40s, my need for sleep increased. I've tried every sleep cure on the books, both prescription and natural. A CMD gave me this product, and within days I was sleeping much better, and waking up without the grogginess I normally have (even from melatonin!).I would highly recommend this product. Serving size is 10 little pills, but the CMD cut me back to 5 after a few days.

Very good!

It is relaxing and I love it because it curbs sugar craving! I can lose weight with this! I will let you know!

It didn't make me sleepy enough. I took a lot but it didn't work. I have to write more words to publish this review. They shouldn't have a word limit.
