DEVELOPED BY A NUTRITIONIST AND FORMER INSOMNIAC: Sleep Minerals II is a recipe of calming nutrients, proven effective by science. It was formulated by nutritionist Jobee Knight when this blend of vitamins and minerals resolved her sleeplessness. She now provides it worldwide to help others sleep well.
UNIQUE MIXTURE OF INGREDIENTS: The ingredients in Sleep Minerals II are mixed with healthy rice bran oil, which forms a creamy paste inside the softgel. This allows it to be assimilated well into the body and makes it soothing and calming.

TRUSTED PURITY: Made in compliance with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and has an ‘A’ rating from the National Products Association (NPA).
IT ALSO MEETS AND EXCEEDS: The Food and Drug Administration’s cGMP program, which refers to the Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations enforced by the FDA.
INGREDIENTS: Two softgels contain 667 mg. of calcium, 333 mg. of magnesium, 400 int’l units of vitamin D3 and 25 mg. of zinc.
OTHER INGREDIENTS: Rice bran oil, softgel capsule (gelatin, glycerin, water and zinc), sunflower lecithin and beeswax. No wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish, or sesame. Kosher. Made in the USA.
ALSO GOOD FOR: bone health, joint support, muscle cramps, restless legs and menopause.
SUGGESTED USE: Take one softgel 30 to 45 minutes before bed with some food. Increase to two if needed. Reduce dose if groggy in the morning or there are loose bowels.
NOTE: If you are taking any medication in the evening, its best to take it at least an hour or two apart from the Sleep Minerals.
Science
RESEARCH STUDIES ON THE INGREDIENTS:
Calcium: is directly related to our cycles of sleep. In one study published in the “European Neurology Journal,” researchers found that calcium levels in the body are higher during some of the deepest levels of sleep, such as the rapid eye movement (REM) phase. This study concluded that disturbances in sleep are related to a calcium deficiency.
Magnesium: One of the main symptoms of magnesium deficiency is chronic insomnia. Sleep in magnesium deficiency is usually agitated with frequent nighttime awakenings. On the other hand, a high magnesium diet has been found to be associated with deeper, less interrupted sleep. This was proven in a study done at the Human Nutrition Research Center titled “Effects of trace element nutrition on sleep patterns in adult women.”
Note that a balanced ratio of calcium to magnesium is important to overall health and these two minerals should be taken together for best results. The best calcium and magnesium ratio is twice as much calcium as magnesium, per the Research Division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Vitamin D: The results of a clinical trial on vitamin D supplementation were published in a recent issue of the journal “Medical Hypothesis.” The researchers followed 1500 patients who had sleep disorders over a 2-year period. A consistent level of vitamin D was maintained in their blood over many months. This produced normal sleep in most of the participants. The study discovered high concentrations of vitamin D “receiving sites” or “receptors” in those areas of the brain that are related to the onset and maintenance of sleep.
Zinc: Research published in the “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” demonstrates that zinc can help individuals fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up feeling refreshed. Zinc is a vital mineral for sleep regulation and it is also the most important mineral for immune function. The amount of zinc present in the body is a factor that can determine the quality and quantity of sleep. Zinc aids in the manufacture of chemical messengers in the brain such as melatonin.
Rice Bran Oil: This is the “carrier oil” for the minerals in Sleep Minerals II. Research studies have found that this oil reduces blood pressure and cholesterol, remedies menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, strengthens the immune system and protects the retina of the eye. Rice bran oil can help calcium to be absorbed better into the body. In a review article from “Progress in Lipid Research” (a lipid is a natural fat or oil), the authors write that healthy oils increase mineral utilization by enhancing the effects of vitamin D – a vitamin that works alongside calcium and magnesium.
DOCTOR & NUTRITIONIST COMMENTS
James F. Balch, M.D., discusses some natural insomnia remedies in his book “Prescription for Nutritional Healing”. He says: “A lack of the nutrients calcium and magnesium will cause you to wake up after a few hours and then not be able to return to sleep.”
William Sears, M.D. writes: “Calcium helps the brain use the amino acid tryptophan to manufacture the sleep-inducing substance melatonin. This explains why dairy products, which contain both tryptophan and calcium, are one of the top sleep-inducing foods.”
The well-known nutritionist Adelle Davis writes about the roles of calcium in her book “Let’s Eat Right to Keep Fit.” She suggests a natural sleep remedy for insomnia and says: “A calcium deficiency often shows itself by insomnia, another form of an inability to relax. The harm done by sleeping tablets, to say nothing of the thousands of dollars spent on them, could largely be avoided if the calcium intake were adequate.”
Reviews
***** Doctor P. P. of Houston, Texas says: “I had developed sleeping problems and took two different sleeping medications over the course of several weeks. When I discontinued them the insomnia came back even worse. I literally got about 20 hours of sleep in 6 weeks time. Sleep Minerals II was just what I needed. I’ve been taking it for a couple weeks and getting many hours of sleep a night. As a doctor I would definitely avoid prescribing sleeping drugs — I would recommend Sleep Minerals II.”
***** Suzanne G. of Tucson, Arizona says: “I am now taking two Sleep Mineral II capsules each night. I have had insomnia for most of my life and the longer I take Sleep Minerals, the better I sleep. The best thing is that I can now get back to sleep if I wake up in the night. It has given me such a sense of peace to know that I now can be well rested during the day. I also find my brain less foggy from lack of sleep. I have tried many products on the market and this is the one that is gold. Thank you so much for producing a quality product!”
***** Tammy M. of Meridian, Idaho says: “I was plagued with insomnia for five years and desperate for a breakthrough. Nothing has helped me more than Sleep Minerals — I’m so sold on them I could go door to door promoting them. I’m 60 years old and have never slept so soundly.”
***** Richard P. of Parkville, Maryland says: “The Sleep Minerals are making quite a difference. I was regularly waking up at around 3:00 a.m. and after a few days use my sleep improved quite a lot. I wake up once a night to go to the bathroom, but the great thing is, I then fall back asleep and sleep several more hours. This has been a great improvement.
***** Wendy R. of Honolulu, Hawaii says: “My friends know that I’ve had chronic insomnia for a long time. Surprisingly, I received the Sleep Minerals II and began taking it and found this thing really works. In the past if I ever got a good night’s sleep I’d say ‘I slept like a baby’, but that’s the wrong comparison. Those little guys get up every two hours. I am actually beginning to sleep like an adult — a much-rested adult.”
***** Valerie H. of Santa Clarita, California says: “I had such severe menopause insomnia that it took me hours to fall asleep even though I was extremely tired. My legs also had crawling and tingling feelings at night. I got the Sleep Minerals and after about a week, it started to work really well. I fall asleep now within 20 minutes and no more restless legs.”
***** L.R.C. of Massachusetts says: “I had become dependent on sleeping drugs and couldn’t sleep without them. Now I take the Sleep Minerals before bed and I can sleep through the whole night without drugs. I’m also able to easily fall back to sleep if I do have to get up. Another benefit is this helps alleviate my chronic fatigue and aches and pains.”
***** K. C. of Homer, New York says: “I am writing to you a true believer of Sleep Minerals II. I never write product reviews…. good or bad. I had originally ordered your sleep minerals product and thought I would give it a try. Well I had given it to the entire family. We ran out of it and I really thought it wasn’t working. I quickly realized within a couple nights that without them the entire household was not falling asleep as easily as they were before! So I immediately ordered more. I will not let that happen again.”
***** Sadie D. from the Netherlands says: “I am ever so grateful that I discovered Sleep Minerals II after suffering with premenopause and now the real menopause insomnia. I felt like I was slowly losing my mind due to the continual lack of sleep. I can’t express the relief of getting a good night’s sleep and being able to function properly.’”
***** Kimberly B. of Troy, Michigan says: “I have been taking Sleep Minerals II for about a month now. I have tried everything out there and this supplement is amazing. I have suffered with insomnia for 2 1/2 years. I have also had restless leg syndrome my entire life and this is the first relief I’ve ever had…gone for a month now.”
***** Chris M. of the United Kingdom says: “I take one softgel of Sleep Minerals II before bed every night and within 20 minutes I am asleep. The difference in the quality of my sleep and the ease with which I get to sleep using this product is monumental. I have stopped obsessing about sleep or dreading bedtime – I just take a softgel and drift off. If I stop taking them, within a week my sleep starts to lighten in quality, the amount of my sleep diminishes, and my old insomniac patterns reappear.”
***** Deborah E. of Apple Creek, Ohio says: “It is going much, much better. It took about a week for the Sleep Minerals to begin to work with me, but I am sleeping. What glorious words. I am sleeping!”
***** Darleen T. of La Mesa, California says: “I purchased Sleep Minerals for my teenage daughter. When she started on the minerals she hadn’t been sleeping well for the past couple of years. The couple of months before beginning the minerals she wasn’t sleeping more than 4 hours at night and the only way to get more sleep was to lose her entire day by napping and even that rarely worked. She was run down and feeling beyond her years… exhausted. She is only 18. Once she started on the minerals she is now tired at night! That’s new! She can fall into a restful sleep by 10:30pm and sleep all night. Sleep Minerals are a heaven send and have given her a life back!”
***** Tammy B. of Spotsylvania, Virginia says: “I have been using the Sleep Minerals and I do notice a difference. Specifically, my legs don’t seem to be restless anymore and my hip and knee joints don’t ache. I haven’t done anything else differently so I have to give all the credit to this product. I didn’t take the Sleep Minerals one night and the next few nights were extremely miserable for me as I worked to get back on schedule. I usually sleep well and the best part is…. I’m waking up refreshed.”
***** Jill C. of Ellensburg, Washington says: “My husband has been struggling with restless leg syndrome his whole life. He couldn’t sleep more than 3 to 5 hours unless taking an addictive prescribed narcotic which he became tolerant to and the insomnia came back with no answers. The very first night he took Sleep Minerals II he slept through the night, 8 hrs +, with no restless legs. He’s been taking it for a week and every night has had a great night’s sleep. We are thrilled.”
***** S.K. of Indianapolis, Indiana says: “I have been using Sleep Minerals II. I use it religiously every single night. I suffered from YEARS of anxiety-related insomnia. Nothing helped. My doctor couldn’t find a medicinal combination of medications to treat my anxiety well enough to allow me to get some good sleep. On my first night of Sleep Minerals II, I was able to sleep all the way through the night. I’ve been using it for almost two years now. I am absolutely 1000% satisfied with this product and have even recommended it to my friends and family when they discuss their sleep issues with me.”
***** I.C. of Ontario, Canada says: “I have Lupus, which is an autoimmune condition. I’m not allowed to take vitamins like vitamin C or anything that builds up my immune system. If I do, my immune system gets stronger and attacks me. I have diabetes, a thyroid condition, arthritis and other issues. The Sleep Minerals is just subtle enough that it helps me sleep and gives me the minerals I need – especially calcium. I have arthritis throughout my whole body and the minerals help this a lot. In fact, the Sleep Minerals lessens all of my symptoms greatly and has helped me to go into remission.”
***** W.W. of Perth, Australia says: “I have been taking the Sleep Minerals for the past 15 nights and am noticing an improvement in my ability to go back to sleep when waking during the night. I have also been able to start reducing the medication that I have been taking for the past 7 years for sleep. I will definitely keep taking them and hope to keep reducing the prescription meds and continue to feel more rested during the day.”
***** J.H. of Manitoba, Canada says: “Sleep Minerals II has made a huge difference in my life as I was having debilitating leg cramps that used to occur every night. My legs were sore even into the next day. These have now become history. My sleep is also so much better and now I don’t worry constantly about my calcium and magnesium levels. I am 70 years old and look forward to a very healthy old age. I suffered with sleep deprivation for a very long time and I will continue to pass the word on to my friends about how Sleep Minerals II has changed my life.”
***** M. T. of Tasmania, Australia says: “I received the Sleep Minerals II about a week ago and have been taking the softgels about an hour before bed. The last two nights I have slept well. The best side effect I have found, however, is that the night sweats and hot flashes I had constantly throughout the day, have almost completely stopped. And if I do have one, it is 95% less than I previously experienced. So far I’m very happy with the Sleep Minerals.”
***** Alex R. of Ramseur, North Carolina says: “Sleep Minerals II has been a blessing for me. It has given me the opportunity to withdraw from a highly addictive sleep medication over time, and has allowed me to sleep while going through this most difficult ordeal. What’s great about it is it doesn’t lose its effectiveness, which is something that happens with medications. I am most thankful for this product.”
***** J.M. of Florida says: “My restless legs were so bad that after 5:00 p.m. I could hardly sit down for two minutes without my legs moving. After taking the Sleep Minerals II for a while, my restless leg syndrome is greatly diminished and I’ve noticed I’m getting more and more sleep.”
***** Anne and Bob B. of El Dorado Hills, California says: “We find the Sleep Minerals very helpful for my husband’s restless leg syndrome. He does not do well on many medications and the drug the doctor prescribed for this was full of bad side effects. Out of pure desperation, I researched the internet and came up with an article about Sleep Minerals II and decided to try them. They have been wonderful. Bob continues to sleep much better and with very little, if any, movement in his legs.”
***** Anita L. of New Caney, Texas says: “I was having hot flashes every 30 minutes to an hour through the night and was so miserable. After about two weeks of taking the Sleep Minerals, I noticed an incredible difference with my sleep. I have much less interruption from flashes, I’m sleeping much better and I’m a lot more comfortable.”
***** E.H. of Mineral Wells, TX. says: “In the past I have tried a lot of different things for my insomnia and most of it didn’t work at all. Sleep Minerals II has helped me a lot and I don’t ever want to run out of it. Now I at least sleep 4 or 5 hours, sometimes 7.”
***** Marilyn W. of Riverside, California. says: “I decided to try an experiment. I was running out of the Sleep Minerals II so I decided to see if they were really helping me in any way. Now I know they were definitely helping me sleep and were definitely helping me with my hot sweats. I have not slept well lately and the hot sweats are worse than they’ve ever been. I ordered a bottle of Sleep Minerals last night and I can hardly wait to get the new bottle.”
***** Julianne H. of Canada says: “I continue to tell my friends about how Sleep Minerals II has changed my life. I am fully retired now but still remember driving to work and wondering if I would make it there due to sleep deprivation. And the debilitating leg cramps that used to occur every night have now become history. My legs were sore even into the next day. It’s great to be sleeping so much better, no more sore legs, and my calcium levels are being kept constant.”
***** Stephanie K. of Indianapolis, Indiana says: “I’ve been taking Sleep Minerals II for almost a year now. My journey with insomnia started three years ago and I thought I would never get a good night’s sleep again. I was put on a variety of anxiety medications, none of which worked nearly as well as Sleep Minerals II. I am absolutely 1000% satisfied with this product and have even given recommendations to my friends and family when they’ve discussed their sleep issues with me.”
