Question by Ash: Can taking sleep aids at night slow down your weight loss progress?
When I cannot sleep due to aches and pains I take sleep aids. I’m trying to lose 41 pounds (I have lost 21 pounds so far) and I wonder if you take sleep aids if it throws off your metabolism.

Answer by submetropolis
it could depending on the sleep pill. Some make you retain water or lower your metabolism.
You might try velarian root (natural herb) for a few days instead of sleeping pills. Velarian root doesn’t knock you out like sleeping pills its a slow drowsey so if you go to bed at 10 then you need to take them around 8ish.
