so say im attempting to reach the highest quality sleep of possible, lets say the room is already ideal temp and i didnt eat for 2.5 hours before bed just to get factors other than supps out of the way. rn I am taking 400mg l theanine, 600mg ashwaghanda and 400mg magnesium glycinate roughly 30 mins before bed. not exactly satisfied with results (i want GIGA sleep)
is cbd oil/tinctures cope? or would i be better off introducing something like mk677 before bed because of the gh response (dont say its cope ill get ipam eventually)

Tinctures and CBD are technically not cope in the sense that they could really relax you and let you sleep, but they will more than likely reduce sleep quality. That aside, yeah you can use Mk-677, it's truly better than nothing.

If you actually do this and stick to it, you wil have better sleep that like 99% of the human population, you're good bro. If you want a few extra tips:

• Not only avoid foods, but also liquids 2 hours before bed as well.
• Journaling, meditation or breathwork can help improve sleep quality, but avoiding stressors and stopping working at the very least 3-4 hours before your desired bed time can have a similar effect, just don't do cognitively taxing activities that will keep up restless.
• Valerian root and lavander may also aid in sleep.
• Your circadian rhythm is also very important, so sleep and wake up around the same time, and get sunlight early in the morning.

Okay let me, reword my statement: avoid big amounts of liquids 2 hours before bed. You can drink a glass of water or something if you're thirsty, but drinking too much liquid increases the chances of you waking up in the middle of the night, this decreases sleep quality, you want continuous uninterrupted sleep.

Also, yes, lavander mimics estrogen in the body, if you actually look at the research the effect is almost biologically irrelevant, but if you want to you can avoid it. Although it is true that lavender extract improves sleep quality.

That aside, another one I forgot is glycine, which also promotes relaxation and sleep. If you want to be almost fully optimal when it comes to your sleep do magnesium, l-theanine, ashwagandha and glycine, that's the perfect squad, any other addition will give you marginal results.
