Now Foods Melatonin 3mg, 60 Capsules

Melatonin plays an active role in the functions of the human body. It is produced in the pineal gland of the brain and is gradually released into the blood. It is a hormone that coordinates the body's circadian (daily) rhythm, i.e. sleep/wake cycles. This rhythm is essentially our biological 24-hour clock

Melatonin is called a "dark" hormone because its synthesis and release are stimulated by darkness. Therefore, exposure to bright light at night or in low light during the day, disrupts the regulation of melatonin production, resulting in fatigue and abnormal functioning of the body. The most typical example is the inability to adjust to previous sleep / wake rhythms after a transatlantic voyage. It has been calculated that for every time difference, it takes one day for the body to return to its normal state.

Melatonin also plays an active role in the vitality and frequency of dreams. Higher levels of melatonin in the blood occur before the nighttime sleep phase, with the direct consequence of increasing melatonin during the night and decreasing it during the day. 

NOW Melatonin 3 mg can help with insomnia and various sleep disorders, as well as transatlantic travel (jet lag effect).
