When counting sheep isn’t doing the job, some people turn to over-the-counter or prescription medications to help them fall and stay asleep. The problem is, many of these medications can have side effects, such as next-day grogginess, or they may become addictive. Enter Dreamerz Foods, a San Francisco-based health foods company, with its own line of ingestible sleep aids they say are effective, non-habit forming and have no side effects.

Dreamerz are dietary supplements to be taken before bedtime to induce sleep and include Dreamerz Chocolate Pillows, a snack-sized bar that comes in milk or dark chocolate; Dreamerz Soothing Dairy, a beverage that can be warmed or served cold and comes in chocolate and vanilla flavors; and Dreamerz Herbal Fruit-Flavored Mix that combines with water and comes in three flavors: Peaches & Dreams, Rock-A-Bye Berry and Pomegranate Pillows.

According to the company, their products contain scientifically tested, safe and effective ingredients, including melatonin, a natural hormone that induces sleep; lactium, a milk-based protein; and PharmaGABA, a protein amino acid. They claim the combination of these ingredients helps people relax, stay asleep throughout the night and awaken refreshed.
