Thanks for the info., but my problem is worse than that I guess. I drink Chamomille tea, tried catnip and chamomile, take MG at bedtime and take sleeping pills (ie: ambien 10 mg. or now the new Lumestra, which I don't think is as effective as Ambien. I will go to sleep immediately, but in 4 hours I am wide awake.

Also, I have tried the 5-HTP, which is supposed to help increase Serotonin (it's a precursor to Serotonin) and therefore help the gut digestion and sleeplessness. It didn't seem to make any difference.

Then I am exhausted all day and wide awake again at night. You might have something with the low protein eating at night. .......and another thought, since I've been on Heather's diet for the last two months, I eaten a lot more sugar than I would normally have eaten before. I wonder about the sugar?
