    One of the major trends in the Sleep Aids market in Ghana is the increasing popularity of herbal and natural sleep aids. Ghanaians are turning to traditional remedies and natural ingredients such as chamomile, valerian root, and lavender to help them sleep better. This trend is driven by a growing awareness of the potential side effects of synthetic sleep aids and a desire for more natural alternatives.Another trend in the market is the rise of sleep tracking devices and apps.
