Alpha Prime Supps Hyber-Nite: Sleep, Recover, Rebuild

Instead of reaching for another energy drink, a cup of coffee, or a high-stimulant pre-workout, have you considered trying a sleep-aid, such as Alpha Prime Supps Hyber-Nite? If you truly want to perform at your best, then prioritizing rest and recovery is paramount. Unfortunately, with our fast-paced, busy lifestyles, sleep deprivation is a major problem. Not only can a lack of sleep negatively affect physical performance, but it can also leave a lasting impact on your health.

Improve your sleep, performance, and health with Alpha Prime Supps Hyber-Nite!

A systematic review published in the journal Nature and Science of Sleep found that habitual short sleep duration is associated with several health issues, such as:

• Obesity
• Type 2 diabetes
• Hypertension
• Cardiovascular disease
• Depression
• All-cause mortality^[1]

The study also notes that the following factors are likely to be a cause of insufficient sleep:

• Exposure to artificial light at night (i.e. blue light emitted from cell phones, laptops, and televisions)
• Lack of physical activity
• Caffeine consumption
• Poor sleep hygiene
• Work demands
• Social commitments
• Family dynamics^[1]

Both the National Sleep Foundation and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommend that adults (18 to 60) sleep anywhere from 7 to 9 hours per night.^[1] To some people that may be no problem, but to others, it might seem like a near-impossible task. Fortunately, there are several things you can do to improve your sleep quality and duration, such as supplementing with a sleep-aid.

Hyber-Nite: Fall Asleep Faster and Stay Asleep Longer

Alpha Prime Supps understands how important sleep is for recovery, performance, and overall health, which is why they released a sleep aid as part of their new product line. Hyber-Nite was formulated with key vitamins and minerals to promote the production of serotonin and melatonin in the brain, such as vitamin B6, zinc, and magnesium. Serotonin and melatonin are two key hormones that assist in inducing sleep.

In Hyber-Nite, Alpha Prime Supps included four additional ingredients that may help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer— GABA, L-theanine, 5-HTP, and melatonin. Overall, Hyber-Nite is a simple, yet effective, sleep aid and it may help you boost your health and performance.

Hyber-Nite Ingredient Breakdown

For optimal results, Alpha Prime recommends taking four capsules of Hyber-Nite approximately 30 minutes before going to sleep. As always, talk to a qualified healthcare professional before taking Hyber-Nite to ensure that you have no contraindications.

Here’s what one serving (four capsules) of Hyber-Nite contains:

• Vitamins & Minerals

  • Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine HCL) – 50mg (2941% DV)

    

    Boost your sleep quality with Alpha Prime Supps Hyber-Nite!

    Typically, B vitamins are included in energy-boosting supplements, such as pre-workouts, nootropics, gaming supplements, and energy drinks because they assist in metabolizing carbohydrates and fatty acids. However, vitamin B6, in particular, is arguably more suited for a sleep-aid because of its involvement in serotonin and melatonin production.

    Although there hasn’t been much research done directly on vitamin B6 supplementation and its impact on sleep, insufficient vitamin B6 intake has been linked to depression and insomnia. Insomnia is a common sleep disorder characterized by persistent problems falling asleep and/or staying asleep. Some studies have found that the combination of vitamin B6, magnesium, and melatonin may have a synergistic effect on sleep quality.^[2,3]

    A recent randomized controlled study published in the Open Access Macedonian Journal of Medical Sciences found that a magnesium-melatonin-vitamin-B complex was effective at treating insomnia, regardless of the cause.^[2] Another study published in the journal Complementary Therapies in Medicine found that a combination of melatonin, vitamin B6, and some medicinal plants may be beneficial for mild-moderate insomnia.^[3]

  • Zinc Methionine – 30mg (55% DV)

    Zinc is the second most abundant trace mineral in the body and it plays a vital role in several physiological processes, such as:

    • Immune system function
    • Protein synthesis
    • DNA synthesis
    • Growth and development
    • Cell division^[4]

    Zinc is primarily found in dairy products, seafood, grains, nuts, red meat, and poultry. It’s important to note that certain foods, such as whole-grain bread, cereal, and legumes, can inhibit zinc absorption because they contain high levels of phytates (an anti-nutrient). Insufficient intake of zinc can severely impair your immune system and quality of sleep.^[4]

    A systematic review published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences found that zinc plays a major role in enzymatic activity and also cell signaling throughout the central nervous system (CNS).^[4] In addition to being a cofactor, zinc is a modulator of the CNS and several studies have shown that supplementing with zinc can improve sleep quality in humans and mice.^[4]

    The mechanism of action in which zinc induces sleep is still under investigation, but researchers theorize that the mineral primarily interacts with glutamatergic receptors in the brain and may affect G protein-coupled receptor 39 (GPR39).^[4] Either way, zinc is a vital nutrient and has plenty of evidence to support its use in a sleep aid.

  • Magnesium Bisglycinate – 90mg (21% DV)

    

    How to take Hyber-Nite for maximal results!

    Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body and, similar to zinc, it’s also an important cofactor for several enzymatic reactions in energy metabolism and neurotransmitter synthesis.^[5] The majority of magnesium is stored in bone. As you age, magnesium levels tend to decline due to a loss in bone density. Therefore, supplementation becomes even more important.^[5]

    A randomized clinical trial published in the Journal of Research in Medical Sciences found that magnesium supplementation can improve both subjective and objective measures of insomnia in the elderly.^[5] More research is needed, but it’s likely that magnesium improves sleep quality by serving as a natural antagonist of the N-Methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor and agonist of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA).^[5]

    As we mentioned in the vitamin B6 section, the combination of magnesium, melatonin, and vitamin B was effective at treating insomnia.^[2] So we appreciate that Alpha Prime Supps uses magnesium bisglycinate because it’s one of the most highly bioavailable forms of magnesium.

  • Sleep & Relaxation Blend – 1705mg

  • GABA (?-Aminobuytric Acid) – 1000mg

    

    Alpha Prime Supps Non-Stim supports a healthy metabolism and blood glucose levels!

    Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is a neurotransmitter that may help you fall asleep faster due to its depressive effect on the nervous system. Gamma-aminobutyric acid is highly concentrated in the CNS and is involved in several aspects of the sleep cycle.^[6,7]

    Studies show that supplementing with GABA leads to:

    • Relaxation
    • Decreases beta waves (contributes to waking consciousness and reasoning)
    • Increases alpha waves (responsible for deep relaxation).^[8]

    GABA has been shown to decrease pain, alleviate mental stress, and may improve brain function, including memory and learning capability.^[8-10] Although GABA is quite powerful on its own, a randomized placebo-controlled trial found that when GABA is taken alongside 5-HTP, it enhances sleep quality, reduces sleep latency, and increases the duration of sleep. In other words, combining 5-HTP and GABA may help users fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. Alpha Prime Supps formulated Hyber-Nite with GABA and 5-HTP.

  • L-Theanine – 500mg

    L-theanine is an amino acid derivative of glutamine and glutamate. It’s actually used in a variety of sports nutrition supplements, from pre-workouts to sleep aids. It wouldn’t be strange for you to wonder how an ingredient can help you perform better in the gym and also help you feel relaxed at night. Well, L-theanine has the unique ability to induce calmness and relaxation without drowsiness.^[11,12]

    

    Alpha Prime Supps is now live!

    In terms of pre-workouts and nootropics, it’s rare to see L-theanine without caffeine because studies show that combining them increases mental focus, alertness, accuracy, and processing speed to a greater extent than either compound on its own.^[11,12] Other studies suggest that L-theanine boosts dopamine levels, which may improve memory, thinking, and learning.^[12]

    In the absence of caffeine, L-theanine can promote relaxation and rest. Research shows that L-theanine works by increasing the production of GABA, serotonin, and dopamine in the brain.^[13] Moreover, a study conducted by researchers from Korea University found that combining L-theanine and GABA has a positive, synergistic effect on sleep quality and duration compared to either compound in isolation.^[13]

  • 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) – 200mg

    5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is a naturally occurring amino acid that’s a precursor to serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that’s predominantly responsible for regulating mood, sleep, appetite, digestion, and memory. 5-HTP serves as a source of tryptophan, which can be used to synthesize serotonin. Low levels of serotonin have been associated with increased anxiety, depression, poor sleep quality, weight gain, and other health conditions.^[14]

    

    Stay asleep longer and fall asleep faster.

    Serotonin is the main precursor to melatonin, a hormone that’s released by the pineal gland in the brain and regulates the sleep-wake cycle. Therefore, it’s no surprise that sufficient amounts of tryptophan, serotonin, and melatonin results in improved sleep quality. Research shows that supplementing with 5-HTP can suppress appetite, improve mood, and enhance sleep quality.^[8]

    More research is needed to determine the effectiveness of 5-HTP in isolation for improving sleep. However, there’s a fair amount of evidence to show when 5-HTP is taken with other compounds, such as GABA, it significantly boosts sleep quality and duration. It also decreases the time it takes to fall asleep.^[8] Moreover, there’s some evidence suggesting that 5-HTP can reduce the frequency of panic attacks and sleep terrors.^[15-17]

  • Melatonin – 5mg

    Melatonin is a hormone that’s naturally produced by the pineal gland and released in response to darkness. During the day, the pineal gland doesn’t actively secrete melatonin, but as soon as the sun goes down, it begins to let your body know it’s time for sleep by releasing melatonin into circulation. That’s one reason you feel drowsy at night.

    Melatonin is crucial for regulating the sleep-wake cycle. It’s important to note, however, that artificial light (among other things) can interfere with melatonin secretion. That’s why staring at your phone, laptop, or television just before bedtime can interfere with your ability to fall asleep. As soon as your body senses bright light, it no longer feels the need to go to sleep, mainly because melatonin secretion is inhibited.

    Research shows that melatonin supplementation significantly improves sleep quality, reduces the time it takes to fall asleep, and decreases the frequency that users wake up throughout the night.^[18-20] Thus, melatonin on its own is considered an effective treatment for insomnia sufferers.^[18-20]
