Melatonin 10 mg, 60 capsules Swanson

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a natural hormone produced in the brain by the pineal gland. Its main function is to regulate the body's sleep-wake cycle. When the sun sets and darkness falls, melatonin production increases, signaling the body that it's time to prepare for sleep. In the morning, when light returns, melatonin production decreases, helping us to wake up and be alert.

Melatonin is also available as a dietary supplement and functions in the same way as the body's self-produced hormone. It is often used to support a good night's sleep, especially for people who have difficulty falling asleep or experience disturbed sleep.

How does Melatonin work?

The primary characteristic of melatonin is to regulate the circadian rhythm. People who have difficulty falling asleep or suffer from restless sleep often have low levels of melatonin. By taking a melatonin supplement, levels can be increased, thereby improving sleep quality.

Furthermore, melatonin production decreases with age, especially after the age of 40, which can be one of the reasons why older people often have more difficulty falling asleep. By supplementing with melatonin, this can be compensated for, supporting a more relaxed and restorative sleep.

Why is Melatonin important?

Melatonin has more functions than just affecting sleep. It can also:
✔ Regulate body temperature, blood pressure, and hormone balance
✔ Contribute to relaxation and reduced stress
✔ Act as a powerful antioxidant that protects eye health and can reduce the risk of eye diseases
✔ Reduce symptoms of acid reflux and promote stomach lining health, especially in cases of irritation caused by the H. pylori bacterium
✔ Alleviate tinnitus and thus improve sleep quality

When should you take Melatonin?

Melatonin can be a good option for people who experience:
🔹 Difficulty falling asleep
🔹 Irregular sleep rhythm
🔹 Restless and shallow sleep
🔹 Insomnia
🔹 Difficulty concentrating due to poor sleep
