What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a hormone that plays a crucial part in regulating the body's circadian rhythm, helping to encourage optimal sleep and a calm mood. An organic compound, it is created by the pineal gland of the brain. This hormone has the ability to cross the blood-brain barrier and enter the circulatory system. It helps to optimize the body's circadian rhythm, which drives various biological processes, most notably sleep. Melatonin production is signaled by light; when it starts to grow dark in the evening, levels of the hormone increase, peaking before bedtime. When it gets light in the morning, melatonin levels decrease. Due to this property, melatonin is essential to a consistent sleep cycle and particularly effective in the case of jet leg, where the body's circadian rhythm has been thrown off.

Melatonin helps encourage a relaxed mood, a quality linked to its support of healthy rest. Additionally, studies show that melatonin features antioxidant activity, allowing it to fight harmful oxidative stress in the body and promote healthy aging. Because it is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, the antioxidant hormone supports brain health and protects brain cells from free radicals and toxins. It may also encourage cognitive wellness and memory in seniors. Research has indicated that melatonin levels decline naturally during the aging process, while circadian rhythm disturbances escalate. This may suggest the hormone holds greater importance for older individuals. More recent early research has suggested that it may influence blood pressure, as well.

Melatonin Supplements:

Aging and many prescription and over-the-counter drugs are known to diminish melatonin levels in the body. Since there's no proven way to prompt the pineal gland to produce more of the hormone, taking 1 to 5 mg in supplement form is recommended to enjoy the benefits of more restful sleep, antioxidant protection and optimal brain function. Supplement products are available in capsule, tablet or liquid form.

Melatonin Directions for Use:

Consult your physician before beginning any regular supplementation program. Although there is no set dosage, capsules or tablets often supply between 1 and 5 mg for sleep support. Recommended dosage may depend on the issue at hand. Melatonin is usually suggested for use in the short term, generally no more than one to three months.
