According to the Sleep Foundation, chamomile tea acts as a mild sedative, largely due to a key flavonoid. Apigenin is the specific compound in chamomile that makes you sleepy by binding to receptors in the brain to induce a state of relaxation and drowsiness.

Research suggests nearly 50% of Americans are magnesium deficient, an essential mineral that plays a crucial role in managing stress and promoting relaxation by influencing GABA receptors. This dynamic relationship is fundamental to understanding how the body achieves a state of calm and balance.
