What can cause insomnia?

Physical conditions


People do not sleep well when they have physical or emotional problems. For example, having muscle cramps will keep you awake. A stomach full of food will keep you awake. Sometimes there are exceptions to rules because all people are different.

Living conditions can cause insomnia, such as bright light through the window from the street lamp, dirty electricity in your house or apartment, a warm room, too soft bed.

The usage of alcohol can interfere with sleep. Sometimes people do not sleep when they are over-exhausted or have pain or migraine.

Emotional problems


Emotional problems can keep people awake. Overthinking never helped to solve issues. It can only deepen them. However, most of us do not know how to escape the vicious cycle of recurring thoughts.

Problems at work or simple thing as the snoring partner can keep you awake.

Can Spirulina help with sleep?


Yes, Spirulina can help with sleep, especially if you experience hunger before bed but do not want to gain weight after putting inside a big piece of cake.

Spirulina satisfies hunger but does not add calories. It is one of the best ways to lose weight and not starve as it happens when you are on a diet.

Think about it. Could you sleep better with a full stomach of pizza or steak or feel complete without a heavy load?

Nutrients in Spirulina

Micronutrients


Additionally, Spirulina contains magnesium that helps relax. Spirulina has other micronutrients, such as calcium, iron, zinc, manganese, chromium, copper, germanium, and selenium. These nutrients participate in the body’s metabolism. You can sleep better when your body gets all the needed nutrients and can perform in the best way as nature intended.

GLA


GLA is an essential fatty acid. Spirulina has abundance of GLA. Only mother’s milk has more of GLA than Spirulina.

GLA, gamma linoleic acid, is a precursor for the body’s prostaglandins, which are master hormones. They control many essential body functions.

Studies show that GLA can help with arthritis, obesity, zinc deficiency(think about a common cold or just running nose), heart problems.

Additionally, GLA can help with conditions of alcoholism, premenstrual stress, and aging.

Ten grams of Spirulina provides over 100mg of GLA. It is more than two capsules of evening primrose oil.

Benefits of Spirulina

Wrapping up


Spirulina only interferes with sleep if you take an enormous amount of it. It could happen to most of everything that you overdose on. It can be the best supplement or food on Earth, but if you do a stupid thing, such as overusing something, your body will reject it.

Spirulina does not cause insomnia, but it does help you go to sleep without having a full stomach. Instead, you will feel satisfied and full with light body. Nutrients in Spirulina nourish the body and help with metabolism. Sufficient amounts of proteins, essential fatty acids proteins, vitamins, and trace minerals replenish you body letting you have a good night’s sleep.

On a cheerful note. Animals benefit from Spirulina too. Japanese have been using Spirulina in pet food many decades ago.

Do you use Spirulina? It would be nice to hear from you.
