Honey contains glucose which informs the brain to end the production of hypocretin. Hypocretin is the chemical in our brains that triggers alertness or arousal. Without the production of this chemical, we begin to feel tired and drowsy. Yes, it's a sedative.

Honey contains small amounts of tryptophan, an amino acid that can help promote relaxation and improve sleep. While it may have a mild sedative effect for some people, it is not as potent as other sedatives and should not be relied on as a primary treatment for sleep issues.
