Biotest Z -12 60 Caps

Nothing aids performance, physical or mental, more than a good night's sleep.

Conversely, nothing hurts performance more than a poor night's sleep.

Worse, lack of sleep kills the ability to enjoy life. It saps us of our strength, our vitality. If sleeplessness had a face, it would be that of Count Dracula.

For years, doctors have told us that sleeplessness results from depression, neurosis, or some other underlying psychological pathology. But there's evidence to suggest that we've got it backward, that sleeplessness leads to depression, in addition to alcoholism, emotional instability, and other mental problems!

While surveys suggest that 10 to 15 percent of the U.S. population suffers from chronic insomnia, personal experience and anecdotal data lead me to believe that occasional sleeplessness plagues at least half of the population.

The causes are largely unknown, although there's some indication that it might even be genetic. Personally, I know that my sleeplessness is directly caused by the demons — or vampires — that come in the middle of the night, the ones that remind me of responsibilities, bills, friends in need, or any of a number of gut-knotting problems.

The sleeplessness takes its toll in the gym, in business, and in health. People who suffer from sleeplessness have statistically more visits to the doctor (because they're at the mercy of every passing illness), more hospitalization, and more accidents on the job and on the road.

Closely related to sleeplessness is plain old daytime anxiety, the kind that leads to the tyranny of the scattered mind. Anxiety is like a persistent itch that you just can't scratch.

While most athletes spend a lot of their time getting jacked up by stimulants, very few give any thought to the restful yin to the energy yang.

Obviously, rest is crucial. A calm mind is crucial. We all know it. Now it's time we applied the inestimable creativity of Biotest researchers to addressing it.
