Question 1

Q: How quickly does Sleepy Time work?

Accepted Answer

A: Sleepy Time will relax you so it’s easier to fall asleep. It does not make you fall asleep, but it does encourage your body to become relaxed and more able to fall asleep naturally. If you are using this to encourage sleep in your children, please understand that this will not "knock them out." It will simply encourage relaxation in their bodies to promote restful sleep. The more consistently this tincture is taken, the more support it will offer you.

Question 2

Q: Does Sleepy Time contain melatonin?

Accepted Answer

A: No, Sleepy Time DOES NOT contain melatonin. We suggest reading our guide The Secret to A Good Night’s Sleep for more information on why we do not recommend using synthetic melatonin for sleep. If you are using this to encourage sleep in your children, please understand that this will not "knock them out." It will simply encourage relaxation in their body to promote a restful sleep.

Question 3

Q: I gave Sleepy Time to my child and now they are really hyper, what’s happening?

Accepted Answer

A: Approximately 10% of the population finds catnip to cause their systems to be excited rather than calmed (it is often the same group that finds caffeine to be relaxing instead of energizing). If you are worried that this might be you or your children, give a few drops in the morning and see how they respond. If they are not overly excited, they are probably not reactive to catnip, and it will be calming for them.

Question 4

Q: Wait? Catnip? Isn’t that for cats?

Accepted Answer

A: Nope! Catnip isn't just for cats! That silly reaction is due to a genetic sensitivity to catnip that produces an exciting response (in most cats). In humans, catnip has the complete opposite effect (usually). Catnip is calming and soothing for most humans. About 10% of the human population has a genetic disposition that makes catnip "exciting" instead of calming, though. These are generally the same people who find caffeine has no effect on them or makes them sleepy.

Question 5

Q: How do I take this? Can I mix this with juice or a smoothie?

Accepted Answer

A: All of our tinctures can be taken sublingually (under the tongue), orally, or in juice, water, smoothies, applesauce, etc. -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal. If giving multiples, they can be mixed together in a cup -- except for Digest-Support, which must be taken alone with as little water as possible 20 minutes before a meal. Be sure not to let the dropper touch the mouth as this can cause contamination. When taking yourself, drop from above your mouth under your tongue. When giving to someone else, ask them to open their mouth and lean their head back so you can drop it in.

Question 6

Q: There is sediment at the bottom of my tincture bottle or discoloration of the dropper; what is it?

Accepted Answer

A: Since our products are made from herbs, sometimes herbal sediment isn’t completely strained. Chances are, if you notice any sediment at the bottom of the bottle or discoloration at the tip of the dropper, it’s from the herbs. As long as the and doesn’t smell rancid, it’s still safe to use.

Question 7

Q: Plants don't seem 'strong enough' to replace the remedies I'm used to.  Does this really work?

Accepted Answer

A: Yes! Plants and what is provided in nature are a lot more effective than you may know! There are lots of studies about what they can do in our bodies. In the Ingredients tab, you can click on each ingredient to learn more about it and read some of the studies. Give this a try and see for yourself how well it works -- and don't forget to read the reviews!

Question 8

Q: I feel I could use some more support; can this be taken with other Earthley products?

Accepted Answer

A: Yes, all Earthley Wellness products are safe to take together, except Digest Support. That should be taken 30 minutes before meals with as little water as possible for best results.

Question 9

Q: When do products expire? What are the shelf life of your items?

Accepted Answer

A: In order to be FDA compliant, we are no longer able to put a Best By or Expiration Date on our products. We do, however, have our Lot Number on all products, which can be found as a 7-digit number either printed on the label or a sticker placed on the container. This will tell the day the product was finished. An example would be the lot number #2124005. 🟩 The first two numbers will indicate the year it was made. So for the above lot, the first two numbers are 21 and so it was made in the year 2021. 🟩 The next three numbers will indicate the day of the year it was made using the Julian Calendar. So the "240" day of the year would end up being the 12th of August. 🟩 The last two numbers will show the batch number made that day. So "05" would be the 5th batch made that day. 🟩 This would mean that the product was finished on August 12, 2021 and was the 5th product made that day. Shelf Life For Products: Because our products are 100% natural with no artificial preservatives, they do expire. The expiration dates are very loose estimates and products usually last much longer. You can extend the shelf life by keeping your products in the refrigerator, although it is not required. Products are safe to use past the expiration date, as long as they do not smell rancid (oil-based) or have visible mold (this is very rare unless contamination has occurred -- usually from mouth contact on the dropper).
