> May I ask what you did to improve your deep sleep?

I think Steve Gibson (of the Security Now podcast, and absolutely not a doctor), had a "healthy sleep formula" of taking a time release melatonin and a time-release niacinamide supplement, and he claimed his Zeo would register more deep when he took it. I got the impression he thought his own sleep was poor and was trying to fix it, and just talked about his personal project on his podcast.

I tried it, and anecdotally I did feel like I slept deeper.

My experience with taking things before bed has been negative because you have to take them with liquids, or else they're one of those combo supplements with a bunch of metabolites left over, and either way you end up waking early because you have to pee now.
