Short sleep and gut health study
This study looks at how a dietary ingredient might affect sleep and digestion in people who naturally get only 4 to 5.5 hours of sleep per night. If you're a healthy adult who feels fine on short sleep, this trial could help show whether the ingredient supports your sleep and gut health.
