What Sleep Doctors Are Recommending to Naturally Improve Sleep Quality In 2026
New research and clinical insight reveal a critical, overlooked factor in deep sleep, recovery, and nighttime relaxation—nitric oxide.

The Sleep (Morning Energy) Crisis No One Is Talking About
Getting high-quality, restorative sleep has never been harder.
Millions of adults either:
1) fall asleep exhausted yet wake up unrefreshed or
2) can't fall asleep and wake up groggy with no energy
While stress, screens, and poor routines are often blamed, sleep doctors are increasingly recognizing a deeper physiological issue: impaired nighttime circulation and nervous system relaxation.
Traditional sleep aids often focus on sedation. But sleep quality is not about being “knocked out.” It’s about the body’s ability to shift into a relaxed, parasympathetic state where true recovery occurs.
This is where nitric oxide enters the conversation.
What Is Nitric Oxide—and Why Does It Matter for Sleep?
Nitric oxide is a naturally produced molecule in our bodies that helps regulate blood flow, oxygen delivery, and nervous system balance. During healthy sleep, nitric oxide supports:
Relaxation of blood vessels
Improved oxygen delivery to tissues
Reduced nighttime cardiovascular strain
Activation of parasympathetic “rest and recover” signaling
When nitric oxide production is impaired, the body struggles to fully downshift at night—even if you’re tired.
Why Traditional Sleep Aids Entirely Miss the Mark
Sedation is not the same as restoration
Many sleep products rely on melatonin or heavy sedatives. While these may help with sleep timing in specific cases (like travel or shift work), they do not address the underlying physiological systems responsible for deep, restorative sleep.
Sleep Habits is different.
Sleep doctors are increasingly focusing on:
Circulation
Oxygen delivery
Nervous system balance
Recovery signaling
This shift has opened the door to nitric oxide–focused sleep support.

After reviewing thousands of sleep tests, one pattern is clear: sedation is not the same as restorative sleep.
While many sleep medications induce unconsciousness, they often suppress deep sleep—the stage most essential for brain repair, learning, and daytime energy.
We formulated Restore+ to address the root cause of poor sleep and low morning energy

How Restore+ Works
If you deliver smooth blood flow overnight, you deliver more oxygen to your brain and body, so that you wake up feeling refreshed.
SleepHabits Restore was developed to support nitric oxide pathways while also addressing relaxation, recovery, and nighttime nervous system balance—all without melatonin.
Relax
Nutrients that support nervous system calm, relaxation, and healthy sleep onset.
Supports the body’s shift into parasympathetic “rest and recover” mode for deeper, more consistent sleep.
Recover
Supports overnight neurological, muscular, and cellular recovery processes.
Provides nutrients involved in neurotransmitter balance, muscle relaxation, and antioxidant activity during deep sleep.
Energize
Supports endogenous nitric oxide production and healthy circulation.
Includes plant-derived nitrate sources that help support oxygen delivery and natural morning energy without stimulants.
These systems are designed to work synergistically to support sleep quality, overnight recovery, and next-day function.
Sleep quality isn’t just about hours slept. It’s about how well the body relaxes, repairs, and prepares for the next day. Restore+ was built to support all three.

Mom, Entrepreneur
I’ve had trouble sleeping due to racing thoughts and stress. With Restore I can slowly ease into relaxation and start to signal to my body that it is time for bed. I've never sleep as consistent and deep as I am now.
I care about the quality of products I put in my body and I can confidently say everything in this is the best you’ll find on the market.
