$4.95

Melatonin is a hormone that your body produces and secretes at night. When it is taken as a dietary supplement, it is to allow your body to become tired and combat the lack of sleep. It has been shown to be incredibly useful for people suffering from jet lag, among other things. Melatonin, also known as N-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine, is a hormone that is produced naturally in the pineal gland. This gland is found in the brain. As melatonin is released, it correlates with the body’s day and night cycle. This hormone is produced in much greater levels at night.

It is quite possible that Melatonin plays a necessary role in both sleeping patterns and immune system deficiencies. Melatonin is able to regulate the body’s internal clock. This is possible because light will slow the production of Melatonin and darkness will stimulate production, which will make you tired.

Research from numerous sources shows that Melatonin helps people to sleep and reduces the number of times a person might wake up in the middle of the night. It also improves the quality of the sleep that a person receives. Additionally, Melatonin is useful in combating jet lag. In fact, it allows for much faster recovery from that stage where a person is out of it, after being on a plane for so long.

Melatonin also has the ability to allow for positive psychological benefits, as it can raise a person’s mood. On the opposite hand, lack of Melatonin might mean fatigue, hostility, and anxiety problems. It is also possible that Melatonin has anti-aging potential, though this is still being tested.
