Layne Norton’s evidence-based supplement company ventures into the sleep aid market with Sleep, a cutting-edge formula supported by science.
Outwork Nutrition, a reputable dietary supplement brand committed to evidence-based formulations, is proud to announce the launch of Sleep. This aptly named natural sleep aid is designed to help users fall asleep faster, enhance sleep quality, and support mood. In line with Outwork Nutrition’s commitment to research-driven products, Sleep is formulated using clinically dosed, evidence-based ingredients proven to be effective in healthy adult populations.
Sleep features melatonin, a well-known supplemental hormone associated with improved sleep quality, and L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes relaxation. The star ingredient, however, is affron®, a natural saffron extract derived from the Crocus sativus flower. Affron® has been shown to enhance sleep in healthy adults experiencing sleep disturbances. Unlike other sleep supplement ingredients lacking robust data, several studies provide evidence that affron® is linked to better sleep quality and mood outcomes in healthy populations.
High-quality sleep is vital for overall health, especially for athletes and those engaged in physical training. Despite its importance, many adults consistently fail to get enough sleep. This is particularly concerning for elite athletes, as one study published in the International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance revealed that only 3% of participants met their sleep needs, potentially compromising their training, recovery, and performance.
Sleep, as formulated by Outwork Nutrition, may help address this issue. Layne Norton, PhD, the company’s founder, explains: “Quality sleep might be the single greatest natural performance enhancer and recovery boost there is. Our new product isn’t a cure-all for sleep issues, but there is good evidence it may help with both sleep duration and quality.” Norton emphasizes the importance of good sleep habits, adding that “in conjunction with those, this product can be beneficial for improving sleep and making your training more productive.”
