Blog Post
To follow-up with a post on a new kind of detox, I thought I'd mention a few more ways to get back into sleep if you have insomnia issues. When I've been in a cycle of illness or stress, there are times I struggle with sleep. I get overstimulated, or my sleep cycles get off, or I think too much about whatever is stressing me out, and I have trouble falling or staying asleep. When this occurs, I've learned that there are many remedies that work great for getting back into the sleep routine.
First, I take the time to be sure that I'm organized for the next day. Nothing stresses me out like knowing I'm unprepared for the next day. I make sure the kids have all they need and anticipate my day, getting as prepared as I can for the next day (right down to laying out clothes, backpacks, and breakfast fixings.)
Second, I make sure I'm getting to bed early enough. I like to read a good fiction or other relaxing book or magazine at least 1 hour before bed (no TV or computer as the light and noise is stimulating). I have a small snack or smoothie to make sure I'm not hungry and maybe turn on some restful music. I dim the lights to only a reading lamp./p>
Third, while reading or listening to music, I get a melatonin lozenge and suck on it (it tastes like a peppermint candy). Not only is melatonin (NuMedica Melatonin) a great antioxidant, it also is a naturally occurring hormone that is produced by the pineal gland. This hormone peaks at night, and studies show that it is associated with the regulation of the sleep/wake cycle. It is a great natural way to combat insomnia. Magnesium (NuMedica Magnesium Citrate Extra Strength) is another great supplement for better sleep!
So get your week started off right- be rested!

Reseller Order Policy Change
Effective December 1, 2023
SupplementRelief.com has been an Authorized Reseller (Team Member) of FirstFitness Nutrition (FFN) since April of 2020, selling FFN products directly from our website to our customers, handling the payment processing, order fulfillment, and customer service.
Effective December 1, 2023 FirstFitness Nutrition REQUIRES ALL Authorized Resellers, who have formerly sold FFN products DIRECTLY from their OWN website, to refer the PRODUCT PURCHASE to the Reseller's FFN Team Member website.
You may continue placing orders on SupplementRelief.com through December 31, 2023 for the remaining products we have in stock.
SupplementRelief.com's FFN Team Member website is:
supplementrelief.firstfitness.com
On the top right of every page you will see our Team Member name to confirm you are on the correct FFN Team Member website:
Your FFN Team Member: SUPPLEMENTRELIEF.COM
Please BOOKMARK this new website supplementrelief.firstfitness.com for future shopping. You may begin using the Team Member website immediately.
You may also place your order directly over the phone by calling either SupplementRelief.com at 888.424.0032 or FirstFitness Nutrition's Customer Support line at 800.621.4348. Please let them know that your FFN Team Member is SUPPLEMENTRELIEF.COM.
You may continue to use this website (supplementrelief.com) for FFN product descriptions and other Wellness content from our Blog, Education, or Recipes, but on December 1, 2023:
- The "Add to Cart" button will change to a "Purchase on FFN Team Member Website" button, and your browser will automatically open a new page on our FFN Team Member Website to purchase the product. You can stay on the new site and shop for ALL other FirstFitness Nutrition products without returning to this website.
- If you formerly had a LOGIN ACCOUNT on SupplementRelief.com, it WILL NOT WORK on the FFN Team Member website. You will be given an option to create a new account on the FFN Team Member Website. You WILL NOT NEED your SupplementRelief.com account on this website anymore, unless you want to see your Order History for orders you placed on SupplementRelief.com in the past.
How Does This Affect Future FFN Purchases?
This means that as of December 1, 2023:
- You may purchase FFN products only from an FFN Team Member website.
- ALL ORDERS will now be PROCESSED and SHIPPED directly by FirstFitness Nutrition. The company name on your credit card statement will no longer say SUPPLEMENTRELIEF but will now say FIRST FITNESS.
- You may optionally create a new account on our FFN Team Member website, or you can shop as a Guest— both options work fine. Setting up a new account on the FFN website is recommended to make placing future orders easier, as FirstFitness will already have your information to process your order once you log on to our Team Member website.
