Now, I also have generally addressed other reasons to wake up in the middle of the night, once asleep, and that amounts to another 2-3 supplements.

Thank you for starting this list.

Can you clarify what these supplements are?

They are items to help with benign prostate hyperplasia.

Do you have those concerns? If so, how bad would you say it is?

If you would like a couple other items we've taken to help with a good night's sleep, for both men and women, they are:

1. L-theanine
2. L-tyrosine
3. Glycine

The above shouldn't be a problem for anyone to take. There are benefits to taking these three during the day, as well. We actually make tyrosine and glycine through the day in our bodies. Theanine is in tea and is responsible for a calm feeling one can get. I believe it also blocks caffeine from receptors.

Something that can also provide a feeling of calm, while reducing stress, is magnolia bark or its extract, “honokiol.”

We have the “Swanson Superior Herbs Magnolia Extract,” originally bought for a health issue my wife occasionally has, but I've taken it, too.

Do note Magnolia/Honokiol can interfere with some drugs, though.
