Apigenin

“The other supplement is Apigenin, A-P-I-G-E-N-I-N. Apigenin, which is a derivative of chamomile. I've talked about this in various podcasts before, also acts as a bit of an anxiety-lowering”

“and stay asleep? Well, would you immediately take magnesium threonate and apigenin together? Well, that depends. If you have the budget and you just simply want to fall asleep quicker and you don't care which of those two ingredients is going to be more effective for you, well, then you could try one, for instance, magnesium threonate,”

“perhaps, a week and see how that affects your latency to sleep time, that is how quickly you fall asleep, or you could try apigenin in the first week, or you could combine them both, or you could try magnesium threonate for a week, then switch to only apigenin for a week and evaluate which one works better for you.”

“that they just say, okay, I'm just going to take magnesium threonate, I'm going to take apigenin, I'm going to take theanine. If my dreams are too vivid and I'm waking up in the middle of the night from excessively vivid dreams, I'll drop the theanine, and many people actually derive great benefit from that approach. I think one week's time of taking something,”

“And I'll go through why that is there. You've got some chamomile tea. You'll see this in the supplement form of apigenin. It's a really common way of that as kind of like distilled chamomile. Look at these lovely kiwis. What's funny here is this is actually what happens in research.”

“they're doing the same thing. They're cognitive turnoff. Apigenin or chamomile specifically will play that role. It is a reasonable switch that says frontal cortex turnoff. And so you're getting there through the podcast where you could get there through food or supplements if you'd like as well.”

“So you're getting some product below it. In this case, apigenin, in this case, other phytochemicals that either reduce a little bit of cognitive function, they reduce arousal, they put you in some sort of checkout state.”

“To your point, if you take valerian root, you're gonna wake up in the morning groggy. Right. And nobody likes that. So I agree. I think apigenin, which is found in chamomile tea, magnolia bark, to your point, tryptophan, theanine, these are really amazing. These are great herbs or herbal compounds that calm the body, but also they're not gonna give you that drowsy feeling the next day.”

“can be very beneficial. Some people need to go a little higher. Some people need to go a little bit lower. 50, five zero milligrams of apigenin, and again, you could just take the apigenin on its own, and 100 to, 400 milligrams of theanine, taken, again, alone or in combination with the other supplements mentioned in this stack”

“because of the intensity of those dreams. So some people might choose to leave theanine out of the sleep stack and just take magnesium threonate or apigenin, and again, some people might leave magnesium threonate out of the sleep stack. All of this is really about finding the supplementation protocol that's ideal for you. I should mention that whether or not you're taking one”
