A home remedy for deep REM sleep is: Chop up 3 slightly aged bananas about 2 inches apart. discard the hard ends. Using a large sauce pot, boil the contents, skin and all. for 20 minutes. Strain the mixture with the fluid going into a large pitcher. Use only 1 cup before sleep. It is an acquired taste, so use a few drops from a small bottle of lemon from extract for taste. Give it a few days to see how you feel the next day. My mixture lasts 5-7 days refrigerated.(cold or heat for comfort.)
