Get Your Drank On

Slow your roll

Slow your roll


Anyone who has seen my GMail or Facebook status messages lately knows that I’ve been having an awful time with insomnia. This isn’t necessarily new as I’ve been battling with it off an on over the past seven or eight months. I’ve been very reluctant to turn to the Simply Sleep I have in the medicine cabinet for fear of reliance or addiction – that’s the last thing I need. Imagine my surprise when Jamie sent me an IM with a link to the new antithesis to the energy drink craze, Drank. Here’s what they’re keeping under their lid:

“Drank” contains a combination of Valerian Root, Rose Hips, and Melatonin designed to “slow your roll” after a hectic day. A calming beverage, Drank is formulated to relax the body, mind, and soul. “Drank” is the perfect lifestyle beverage for those who can appreciate extreme relaxation. So grab a Drank and “Slow Your Roll”!

Ingredients and Benefits

Melatonin: This brain hormone naturally controls the human sleep cycle. Melatonin, therefore, tells our bodies when it is time for sleep and when it is time to wake up. “Drank” contains a safe dose of Melatonin which relaxes those who drink it and helps them improve both the duration and quality of their sleep. Melatonin extracts aid the body in resetting its natural ‘clock’ and are even strong enough to prevent the effects of jet-lag. “Drank” enhances the positive effects of melatonin with flair and flavor which all are sure to enjoy.

Valerian Root: Valerian Root benefits anyone who may suffer from anxiety; restlessness; insomnia; mental strain; lack of concentration; excitability; stress; chronic headaches or migraines; nervous stomach cramps; bladder control issues; chronic pain, menopause; and the discomfort, and emotional distress which may occur with menstruation. “Drank” contains a healthy dose measured to compliment the effects of the melatonin and enhance relaxation. Valerian Root has been used around the world for centuries as a safe sedative without the morning ‘grogginess’ and possibility of addiction that man-made sedatives generally contain. “Drank” takes this old age remedy and puts it in the mix with melatonin to “slow your roll” after a long day.

Rose Hips: Another age-old remedy for what ails the body, Rose-Hips, is an excellent source of vitamin-C, contains biologically valuable bioflavinoids and is a great source of anti-oxidants. Rose-Hips have traditionally been used to treat diarrhea, nervousness, exhaustion, stress, urinary problems. Rose- Hips is commonly consumed by itself in tea (a drink) or is used as a topical oil. “Drank” adds Rose-Hips to the Melatonin and Valerian root to create extreme relaxation in a safe and  healthy way.

Wow! Now I can relax and be a part of the cool hip-hop culture? Thanks Drank!

    Hi Bryn, welcome to the site. I hope you find something you enjoy reading/discussing.

    I never would have expected Drank to be so herbal and stuff. I would buy it. Except it probably has a lot of sugar. I would buy Diet Drank.

    Jared – I’ll try adding another pill the next time.

    Dave – you’re mispronouncing analgesic.

    Matt – thanks for the suggestion, I’ll take that under advisement.

    I recommend drinking heavily. Wine more so than beer. 4 glasses of wine, 1 melatonin, 3 xanax and 2 tylenol PMs.

    you can also try crushing them up and snorting them, or sticking them up your butt

    The pills work. You’re just not taking enough.

    try rubbing one out just before going to bed it does wonders

    Perhaps you missed the part where I explained that the pills don’t always work. There have been many nights since that original post when my mind and body have shrugged it off laughing at the vain attempt.

    Wait, you already have sleep medicine, refuse to use it and then complain about insomnia? Ok…. just checking.
