Gabriel investigates WHY you can't sleep rather than prescribing sleep aids.
Gabriel investigates WHY you can't sleep rather than prescribing sleep aids. Testing identifies: cortisol rhythm (is cortisol high at night?), neurotransmitter function, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar patterns, sleep apnea screening. Protocol: 1) Reset circadian rhythm (light exposure management), 2) Optimize sleep environment (dark, cool, EMF-reduced), 3) Address HPA axis dysfunction (lower nighttime cortisol), 4) Stabilize blood sugar, 5) Neurotransmitter support (GABA, serotonin → melatonin pathway), 6) Nervous system regulation. Sleep is non-negotiable for health—must address root cause.
Standard Treatment
Sleep medications (Ambien, Lunesta, benzodiazepines), OTC sleep aids (diphenhydramine/Benadryl, doxylamine), melatonin (but wrong dose/timing), antidepressants for sleep (trazodone, mirtazapine), sleep hygiene advice (often inadequate).
The Problem
Sleep medications create dependency, don't produce natural sleep architecture, cognitive impairment, next-day grogginess, tolerance, difficult to discontinue, increased mortality risk with long-term use, doesn't address root cause (cortisol dysregulation, nutrient deficiencies, blood sugar, circadian disruption), sleep hygiene advice alone often insufficient if underlying biochemical/hormonal imbalances not addressed.
