If you struggle with dropping off to sleep – especially in hot weather – you might want to try these natural supplements, which shoppers are calling ‘the best sleeping product’
With reports of more people than ever having issues with dropping off to sleep, staying asleep or having high quality sleep, supplements that claim to help with this are becoming more and more popular – and we’ve found a set containing a natural source of melatonin that is only getting five star reviews from happy customers.
Supplements brand Verve – who also make a popular greens powder, which I’ve reviewed here – sells its Eclipse Duo, a set of two different supplement capsules designed to help give a ‘restful and uninterrupted night’s sleep’ and with the brand claiming that results should be noticeable within two weeks.
The most popular way to buy the Eclipse Duo is through the monthly subscription, which costs £40 per month (that’s £1.33 per serving). It’s also available on quarterly subscriptions for £110 (£1.22 per dose), or if you just want to try a month’s supply before committing, this is a one-off payment of £50.

Working together to help you to drop off to sleep and then stay asleep, these capsules contain 15 ingredients to reduce tiredness, promote calmness and improve sleep quality, including Montmorency cherry, which contains a natural source of melatonin, the body’s hormone that regulates sleep cycles.
And these supplements have proven to be so popular with customers struggling with sleep that all the reviews so far are five star ones, including the following:
“After years of troubled sleep a friend suggested I try Verve and within a week I could feel the difference,” one reads. “I’m now sleeping a good 6-7 hours a night uninterrupted, which hasn’t happened in years (especially through the menopause etc).”
Another review calls it ‘the best sleeping product I’ve tried’, saying, “I’ve been taking Verve’s Eclipse Duo for nearly a month and I can’t believe how effective it is. I’ve struggled with my sleep for a while, but now I sleep right through until my alarm and feel ready to tackle the day.”
A third person shared actual data that showed a real improvement in their sleep: “I sleep very badly, usually ranging a Garmin sleep score within the 70s,” they wrote. “The first night of taking Eclipse I woke up with a 92/100 score… Strongly recommend.”
In fact, the only negative comment so far is from someone how finds them so effective that they’re “struggling to get up in the morning!”
Another sleep supplement that comes highly recommended by our colleague Kirsty is Ancient & Brave’s True Magnesium+ Capsules, from £19.20. “Within a week I started to notice the difference,” she says. “There has been a huge improvement in my sleep: I’m not waking as much, my sleep is deep, and I feel rested when I wake up.”
Alternatively if you don’t like swallowing large capsules, try Applied Nutrition x Coleen Rooney’s Sleep Sachets, £25; we’ve tried them and love the raspberry, lavender and vanilla flavour.
