Eicosapentaenoic acid shows limited benefits
We explored the effectiveness of eicosapentaenoic acid, a type of omega-3 fatty acid, on insomnia among junior hospital nurses in a well-structured trial. In this study, 80 nurses were randomly assigned to receive either 1200 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid along with 600 mg of docosahexaenoic acid daily or a placebo for 13 weeks.
Our main focus was to see how these supplements influenced insomnia and overall mental health. While we noted some improvements in various measures, including insomnia severity at the 13-week mark, the results didn't demonstrate a significant advantage when compared to the placebo group.
After analyzing data at multiple checkpoints—13, 26, and 52 weeks—we found that the effects of eicosapentaenoic acid on insomnia were not strong enough to conclude it as a beneficial treatment. Overall, while there were some positive indicators at certain times, the overall impact on insomnia was not substantial, leaving us to conclude that more research is needed to confirm any real benefits from omega-3 fatty acids for sleep disturbances.

We explored the relationship between plasma metabolites, including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), and sleep quality using data from a large cohort study. Our investigation focused on participants' experiences with sleep issues such as difficulty falling asleep and snoring.
Through a meticulous analysis, we found that higher levels of DHA, alongside certain cholesterol types, were linked to lower odds of snoring. However, we didn't uncover a direct connection between DHA and improvements in insomnia, specifically when it came to falling asleep or waking up during the night.
This suggests that while DHA may play a role in sleep quality related to snoring, its impact on insomnia isn't clearly established. Our findings indicate that more nuanced studies would be beneficial in determining the precise effects of DHA on sleep disturbances.

I couldn't use the products long enough to notice any beneficial results because they only induced insomnia, so I had to stop.

Boosted sex drive
81 people found this helpful
This supplement has made my sex drive extraordinary, but I also have insomnia. I've been taking it for about 45 days, and I noticed a significant increase in my libido. Other effects include clearer skin and stronger hair. It has altered my periods and made me spot and feel nauseous initially, plus it causes insomnia. I urge users to keep track of any symptoms for clarity.

Increased sex drive

The vitamin is effective but rather difficult to swallow. Although they're not big, the shape makes me gag. Yet, I've observed improvements in my skin and hair, and a boost in my sex drive, which was the purpose for my purchase as my husband and I are trying to conceive. Despite experiencing insomnia, I suggest taking it in the morning; even an afternoon dose kept me awake.
