Zero-Hassle Returns SHOP SAVE BLOG   It's 3am and you're staring at the ceiling, in the middle of another sleepless night.   You've tossed, turned, fluffed the pillows, and still nothing…   And you're pretty sure it's not because of the usual suspects, either – Like too much caffeine, doomscrolling, or your dog hogging the bed.   The real culprit? It might be lurking where you least expect it…   The connection between your gut and sleep Most people are surprised to learn that the gut produces a whopping 90% of your body's serotonin –   This important hormone gets converted into melatonin to control your sleep-wake cycle.    And if your gut's out of whack? Your body can't produce enough serotonin to support restful sleep.   And that's not all.    Your gut also helps regulate cortisol - the stress hormone - which can disrupt sleep when it spikes.   In short:    A healthy gut creates and regulates the hormones you need to fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up feeling refreshed.   So if you're ready to hack your way to deeper, better sleep…   Here are 5 weirdly effective sleep hacks for your gut: 1. Eat Dinner Mindfully   When you rush through meals, you're more likely to overeat and disrupt digestion.    Slowing down and savoring each bite helps you process food better…   And better digestion at night helps prepare your body for restful sleep.   2. Night Fiber   When you feed your gut bacteria fiber at night, they produce compounds that help you relax.    Try a small bowl of chia pudding or a handful of chickpeas about 2 hours before bed.   3. The 4-7-8 Sleep Breath    This breathing pattern triggers your gut's "rest and digest" mode, naturally lowering stress hormones that keep you awake.    Try it 30 minutes before bed: Inhale 4 seconds, hold 7, exhale 8. Repeat 4 times.   4. Dessert Detox   Sugary late-night snacks can spike cortisol and disrupt your gut's delicate microbial balance, keeping you wide awake.   5. Pickle Your Stress   Instead of sugar, add a bite of fermented vegetables like pickles to your evening routine to kick off serotonin production.   And if you've tried everything but still not sleeping? A unique probiotic called B. Longum 1714™ might help.    This strain is clinically proven to promote restful sleep by balancing your body's stress response.    In a recent study, EEG scans confirmed that B. Longum 1714™ also encourages theta brain waves –    The exact brain wave linked to deep, restorative sleep.   For an easy way to incorporate B. Longum 1714™ into your routine, try Just Calm.    It delivers 3x more B. Longum 1714™ than any other retail product, so you can wake up feeling refreshed and ready.   >> Discover more about Just Calm here With gratitude, Tina Anderson Just Thrive | Founder   PS: Sleepless nights leaving you dragging?
