Tuesday, December 12, 2006 - We've all been there. The worry, the beads of sweat on the brow. I overslept again and I'm going to be in big trouble at work. That stupid alarm clock didn't work once again. But what if a simple pill could solve that problem forever?
It's called "Wake Up on Time" -- and it promises two pills taken at bedtime will wake you up in the morning before your alarm clock does.
The supplement contains mostly B-vitamins and it also has herbs, including guarana seeds.
Researchers are split on the pills, saying the time-release effect is good in principle, but there still needs to be better trials. NBC news staffers gave them a try and were also split on how well they work.
