Introduction & Summary
Welcome to The Sleep Study with INDI Rest.
This study explores whether a natural sleep aid can help improve sleep quality over 28 days. Many people struggle with sleep at some point in their lives, and poor sleep impacts health, mood, and productivity.
If you choose to join, you will be helping us understand the real-world effects of INDI Rest, while also gaining insight into your own sleep patterns.
Please note: The study costs £15. This covers the cost of the product and the tools we provide to measure your sleep changes.
Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this study is to measure changes in sleep quality when participants use INDI Rest as directed. INDI Rest contains natural ingredients designed to promote deeper, more restful sleep without grogginess the next day.
We aim to:

- Share overall findings publicly while giving you your own results
