> You need more than just vitamin E for good sleep architecture. The following is a vitamin cocktail I use for sleep and it works well.

> This seems to work well for me. You can't depend on just one vitamin for sleep, but rather, a cocktail which you have to take every night to get better sleep. Yes, vitamin E is very important, but so are the others equally. Try it if you like, and let me know how it turns out for you.

> Laoyes, I do take a variety of supplements in addition to E in the evening. I think I posted them in the original message. however, the melatonin has the opposite effect on me, it keeps me awake all night! LOL. I haven't heard of Selenium as a sleep aid. I know CA/Mg are important for sleep. B1, B2, aren't they better with the whole complex of B's?
