I don't care how much it costs, if I can order it on Amazon or pick it up at Costco or at a vitamin store I'm there!

I actually mean the oppositeπŸ˜† I'd rather sleep at 10pm and wake up at 5am like a normal person, I try to be productive when I wake up early, do laundry, clean, etc. It's the fact that due to peri I can't workout yet until I'm on HRT, it's like I'm drained and sleeping 8 hours. When I'm in shape and training consistently I only need 6 hours. Any suggestions?

I'll warn you now. It smells like horse shit. I used to take one capsule a night helped me relax to fall asleep

I appreciate the heads up! Good looking out! I'll be sure to see if there's a more "pleasant" version on Amazon πŸ˜†

Warning, a lot of stuff on Amazon is fake. I would never buy anything like that on Amazon.

I have heard of sellers putting up fake shops on Amazon, i'll be sure to shop carefully and check out some vitamin stores
