Will it help you sleep...Yes!
Got this last year after the attempt to grow it yielded only a couple of plants and them no where near six feet tall. Made a tea with a snap ball Tea Infuser. Didn't notice much of anything and forgot about it. But, this spring wild lettuce is popping up all over the garden. So, I watched several videos about it's use yesterday. Motivated I decided to give it another try. I grabbed a big pinch of dried leaves, much more than what was in the teaspoon infuser, maybe three tablespoons. Dropped them into an insulated Starbucks tumbler, poured in 8 oz. boiling water, put the lid on and let it steep for an hour or so. As I am want to do, I proceded to the study to check email, etc. about a half an hour before bedtime which is ten o'clock for me, taking the strained tea with me. I sipped it slowly for a number of minutes noting the slightly bitter taste. I woke up at 10:15 to the realization, whoa, this stuff actually works! I bid my lovely former fiancee a good night and retired for the evening. I don't sleep all that well at seventy-two and usually have to visit the bathroom one to three times a night to make water. Last night I didn't get up at all. I did wake up a few times, but went back to sleep. Got up this morning without the usual early morning aches and pains feeling rested. Bottom line...this stuff works as advertized. Use responsibly; don't drink and drive.
