L-theanine 100mg-400mg, test to optimize

Melatonin 1mg-3mg, test to optimize (less is usually more optimal, but everyone's biology is different)

Avoid alcohol whenever possible from a sleep perspective.

Cannabis. Huge help, but not for everyone

I have friends for which it does the opposite

THC, CBD does nothing for me
