Math Problem
 
I saw a commercial on television today for a product called Relaxium. They say that it will help you fall asleep. And, it will make you fall asleep 140 percent faster if you use the product. Can someone please tell me what that means? If you normally fall asleep in 30 minutes, how long will it take to fall asleep when using the product? It seems to me that, if you fall asleep in no time, that would be 100 percent faster than 30 minutes. So, how can you fall asleep any faster than that?

I fall asleep in no time. 140% of 0 is still 0 last I heard.

It takes some amount of time to fall asleep.

I fall asleep pretty quickly but no idea how long it takes, just wake up and know i fell asleep.

Unless you do some sort of scientific study how in the world can this be measured?

I'm guessing the product makes you fall asleep 12 minutes before you plan to start to fall asleep. And therefore you were not quite ready to go to sleep . Hoping you are safe. ie not driving

Lol you might fall asleep 15 min before you want to. You may be sleep walking to get to the bed! Sorry it’s just funny! Take care of those final good things 30 minutes early before normal time 🤗 So if I would’ve taken the pill, you would have been spared this post!!! Goodnight

I find that, generally, those pills do not work. My advice is, drink a glass of wine before bedtime.

I tried the trial offer.

I tried the trial offer for one week (it didn't work for me). They charged my credit card $125 before I used the 30 day trial. Thank goodness my bank denied the charge.

Relaxium sounds like it may do more than just put you asleep.

I assume they are trying to say 100% faster would be twice as fast and additional 40% even more, so for you asleep in about 10 minutes. But it’s so poorly presented it makes me wonder what went into the product. Just up your melatonin. Benadryl would be option 2 and Xanax for extreme sleep issues.

If you take a Relaxium pill, you will “sleep walk” to your bed.

Ashwagandha, Magnesium Citrate, 5HTP, GABA, and Passionflower to help you maintain mental balance These are the ingredients in the medication. Mag citrate is a laxative and the rest are botanicals. Unsure that any will help but your stools should be regular and if you are FOS then maybe you will sleep better.

Wish these companies had to prove their stuff works before making outlandish claims.

Don't depend on responses from this site (albeit legitimate), but Google the product name and check public responses there. Personally, when I need to drift off at night, I take a Non-Aspirin PM night time sleep aid. Give it a go (after you Google it, of course!).

If it takes you 30 minutes to fall asleep normally this product will then enable you to fall asleep in 43 minutes less time. In other words you'll be asleep before you even take the product. In fact you'll be asleep so fast you won't even need to take the product after you've taken the product. Or maybe you need to take the product before you start your timer to see how long it takes you to fall asleep, but you'd be asleep before you could even set the timer. Geezzzz I don't know. Just take it if you want to sleep faster. I'm getting sleepy....
