10 Reasons Why You'll Stop Waking Up To Pee After Trying This Viral Bedtime Combo

Here's why thousands of people are mixing this into a Sprite Zero before bed and sleeping straight through the night...

Why It Works, Straight From Pratik

New York GiantsDirector of Performance NutritionAssistant Strength & Conditioning CoachRegistered DietitianCSCS Certified

He spent four seasons with the New York Giants as their Director of Performance Nutrition and Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach, building the recovery, hydration and sleep protocols for a roster that included Saquon Barkley, Eli Manning and Odell Beckham Jr.

“I spent over a decade as a high-performance coach in elite sport, including the NFL. That meant analyzing biomarkers, studying sleep physiology, and yes... mixing powders and formulating blends to help guys recover, hydrate, and actually sleep after late-night games, cross-country travel, and insane stress loads. So when I talk about ingredients that work, it's not theory.”

Why he adds Sprite Zero

Because cutting fluids before bed isn't the answer. He wanted hydration that doesn't send you to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and Sprite Zero checks every box:

  • Sodium citrate + potassium citrate help regulate fluid balance without spiking you into a diuretic response
  • Carbonation helps slow gastric emptying, helping fluid stay in your system longer
  • No caffeine, so it hydrates without stimulating you, which is a big issue for a lot of people (PM caffeine intake)

Result = you don't wake up to pee, which is one of the biggest sleep disruptors I see in both athletes and adults.

And honestly? It tastes really good with Sprite Zero. We know a soda before bed sounds a little crazy. But this comes from years of practice with elite athletes, not theory.

Why he uses PreSleep

Because hydration alone won't take you into deep sleep. PreSleep puts the three sleep ingredients he says actually do something into one drink, what he calls a “DELICIOUS Elite Sleep formula”:

  • Magnesium Glycinate calms the nervous system, helps lower sleep latency (how fast you fall asleep), and supports muscle relaxation after training or long workdays
  • L-Theanine lowers sympathetic nervous system activity, smooths out mental chatter, and balances out stimulatory brain waves so you glide into deep sleep
  • Glycine lowers core body temperature (huge for deep sleep), improves sleep architecture (especially slow-wave sleep), and helps you feel more restored in the morning

“When you combine elite hydration with a targeted sleep formula, you get what I call FXNL RECOVERY: you fall asleep faster, stay asleep longer, and wake up actually feeling human.”

Team and player names reflect Pratik's coaching career. They do not imply any endorsement of PreSleep by the New York Giants, the NFL, or any player.

It's what an NFL performance coach drinks every single night

Pratik doesn't just recommend this combo. After years of building recovery and sleep formulas for NFL players, it's the one he uses himself. In his own words: “Each night that I choose to drink a Sprite Zero before bed I do not wakeup to pee.” And on the nights he adds 1.5 scoops of PreSleep, he sleeps like a zombie.

It went viral because it actually worked

Pratik wasn't selling anything. He just posted his bedtime routine. It was seen 9.9 million times, saved by 10,000 people who wanted to try it that night, and then people started posting their own results.

Deep sleep keeps you from waking up to pee

In deep sleep, your brain ignores a half-full bladder. In light sleep, that same signal is enough to pull you awake, and stress keeps you light all night. Shallow sleep even makes your body produce more urine (68% more overnight in one study). And since deep sleep shrinks after 40, getting it back matters more every year.

You can stop cutting off water after dinner

No more rationing sips after 6pm and still waking up at 3AM with a dry mouth. Pratik's approach flips it: hydrate smart before bed, sleep deeper, and let the bathroom trips fade on their own.

It helps you get into deep sleep faster

Glycine lowers your core temperature, and in studies it helped people reach deep sleep faster. That matters, because researchers studying night bathroom trips found the #1 dividing line was whether your first unbroken stretch of sleep lasted past 3 hours. Get deep sooner, and a half-full bladder doesn't pull you back up.

Even if you do get up, you fall right back asleep

The worst part was never the trip. It was lying there wide awake for two hours after. When your nervous system is already calm, you're back in bed and back asleep. As one customer put it: “If I wake up to pee, I can fall asleep more easily.”

It kicks in within 30 minutes and lasts all night

Drink it 1 to 2 hours before bed. Feel calm and sleepy by the time you're brushing your teeth. Stay asleep until your alarm goes off.

You wake up clear-headed, not groggy

No melatonin. No sleeping pill hangover. No foggy head or stinging eyes at 7AM. Just the feeling of a full night of sleep, because you actually got one.

It gets better every week

Week one: the 2AM bathroom trips start thinning out. Month one: long, unbroken stretches of sleep feel normal again. Month three: you forget what stumbling to the bathroom in the dark even feels like.

Normally wake up around 2-3am to pee, tried this today and managed sleep all the way to 5:45am when I normally wake up at 5am for work.

Guys... I think this worked. Only a 1 night trial so far but first night in a long time I didn't wake up to pee. Will report back after night 2.

I had no idea how Sprite Zero could reduce waking up to pee. Presleep helps me fall asleep faster, but I was waking up 3 times per night to pee due to drinking a glass of water right before bed. Day 4 of mixing with Sprite Zero instead and I've only had to get up once to pee in the last 4 nights. Plus blue raspberry tastes fantastic with Sprite Zero!
Zeke George@jegeorge117
Extremely anecdotal but I typically wake up to pee probably 80% of nights. I've tried Sprite Zero before bed 3 times this week and it's kept me from waking up all 3 times.

As a professional athlete sleep is crucial for my performance... there's absolutely zero morning grogginess or afternoon crash that I've experienced with others. Not only does it make me sleep, but I've experienced way less waking up throughout the night.

Pre Sleep is the best on market by far and I am someone who has tried Numo and all sorts of different magnesium blends. Theres something about pre sleep that it's best the first one of these sleep aids that actually keeps me asleep for the full 7-8 hours and waking up a different level of refreshed than I've ever been from any other supplement. I can't recommend this more, the best!

Bought this product because an influencer I follow had a Black Friday deal. No supplement alone is a game changer. Quality sleep, however, absolutely is a game changer. If you're doing to right things before bedtime, Pre-Sleep will help you get into deep sleep and stay asleep through the night

I can finally fall asleep and stay asleep! And no more crazy dreams or groggy mornings that came with melatonin. Only wish this was a pill or gummy instead of mixing with 8oz of liquid before bed. But I am so happy to be able to sleep!

PreSleep has helped me fall asleep within 30 minutes every night I've taken it - something that has never happened for me before. I feel more rested in the morning and I'm able to wake up early morning ready to go - again something that didn't happen in the past. Highly recommend, love the ingredients and how simple it is to take.

What an amazing product. I take Presleep about an hour before I go to bed and fall right to sleep. I sleep deeper than I have in years. I wake up feeling refreshed and energetic with no grogginess. A real game changer!

I have had sleep issues since I was a child. I have participated in several sleep studies and tried many sleep remedies. I was labeled a chronic insomniac with unknown underlying cause and marked "un-treatable." PreSleep has, amazingly, helped me sleep.

I've tried all types of sleep aids, the only thing to ever work is Benadryl and it still makes waking up hard... Presleep is the first thing I've found that gets me to sleep quick & doesn't leave me super groggy and brain dead in the morning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Won't drinking something before bed make me pee more?
That's the fear that keeps people cutting liquids. Pratik's approach is the opposite: hydrate smart with Sprite Zero (electrolytes, zero caffeine) and add PreSleep to sleep deeper, so a little signal doesn't wake you. Mix one scoop with 12oz of Sprite Zero or cold water and drink it 1 to 2 hours before bed.
Do I need the Sprite Zero?
No. PreSleep works mixed with plain cold water. Pratik mixes it with Sprite Zero for bedtime hydration, and because it tastes so good with Blue Raz.
How fast will I notice a difference?
Many people feel calm and sleepy within about 30 minutes. The bigger change, fewer bathroom trips, tends to build over the first few weeks as your sleep gets deeper.
Does it have melatonin or anything habit-forming?
No. Just three naturally occurring ingredients: Glycine, L-Theanine, and Magnesium Glycinate. No melatonin, nothing habit-forming, and no morning fog.
What if I have a medical condition?
Waking up to pee a lot can have medical causes, like prostate or bladder issues, sleep apnea, diabetes, or certain medications. If it's new, sudden, or comes with pain, talk to your doctor. If you take prescription medications, check with your doctor before starting any supplement.
What if it doesn't work for me?
You're covered by our 60-night money back guarantee. If you're still waking up to pee, email us for a full refund. No returns, no hoops.

The NFL Coach Behind The Viral Trend

Pratik Patel
Former NFL Coach

“For my athletes, sleep quality is non-negotiable. I'm picky about what I recommend, and I use PreSleep myself. The magnesium glycinate + L-theanine + glycine combo helps you fall asleep faster. It's simple, clean, and it actually fits the routines I build for players and any individual looking to take their health seriously.”
