Melatonin

Overview

Melatonin is a hormone that tells your body when it's time to go to sleep. It is produced by the pineal gland in the brain, but it is also found in other areas, such as the eyes, bone marrow, and intestines.


Mechanism

Melatonin regulates your sleep and determines your day and night rhythms. Light from a computer screen, smartphone, or television suppresses melatonin production and slows down your natural need for sleep. An unregulated biological clock reduces mental performance, alertness and has a negative impact on emotions. Taking melatonin right before bedtime supports and improves the start of a natural sleep pattern.


Benefits

Restores your biological clock

Can increase sleep efficiency and duration
