How to sleep better naturally: weighted blankets and dietary advice
Partager
Lack of sleep impacts your energy, mood, and health
To get back to peaceful nights, two natural solutions perfectly complement each other: using a weighted blanket and a sleep-friendly diet.
Why does a weighted blanket help you sleep better?
Also known as a weighted comforter, a weighted blanket exerts gentle, even pressure on the body. This effect, known as Deep Touch Pressure, stimulates the production of serotonin and melatonin (well-being and sleep hormones), while reducing cortisol (the stress hormone).
The main benefits:
- Faster falling asleep
- Reduction of night awakenings
- Feeling of comfort and security
- Overall improvement in sleep quality

Good eating habits to promote sleep
An adapted diet plays an essential role in preparing the body for nocturnal rest.
Key tips:
- Opt for a light and balanced dinner: vegetables, whole grains, lean protein
- Consume foods rich in tryptophan: bananas, walnuts, almonds, brown rice
- Reduce caffeine and alcohol in the evening: they disrupt deep sleep phases
- Avoid fast sugars before sleeping: they stimulate the body instead of soothing it
Sleep supplement: natural support
To optimize your nights, a sleep supplement can be effective support.
The product Sommeil Profond, developed by Osez Votre Santé, combines plant extracts and natural active ingredients known for:
- Promoting falling asleep
- Reducing night awakenings
- Improving the quality of restorative sleep
Combined with a weighted blanket, it offers a comprehensive and natural approach to finding serene nights and waking up in great shape.
Pro tip – Lisa Leber, dietitian in Montpellier:
“To optimize your nights, remember to create a ritual: light dinner, avoid screens one hour before bed, and wrap yourself in your weighted blanket. Add 3 sprays of a natural supplement like Sommeil Profond to improve your sleep quality.”
