Melatonin 3mg Gradual Release

1 Capsule before Bedtime | 60 Day Supply

A natural hormone synthesized from the amino acid tryptophan by the pineal gland, melatonin acts as a powerful regulator of sleep and the body’s daily rhythmic cycles. Melatonin is also an important antioxidant, acting as an effective scavenger of free radicals. Many factors can cause a decrease in natural melatonin levels, including aging—with some older adults making very small amounts or none at all— insufficient exposure to natural light, and certain medications. As melatonin is naturally activated by darkness and depressed by light, irregular schedules can disrupt its production. Supplementation with melatonin has proven to be beneficial for the elderly, those with shift work hours or suffering from jet lag, and people who have difficulty falling asleep.

Take 1 vegetable capsule 1/2 hour to 1 hour before bedtime as a dietary supplement or as directed by a qualified health care professional.

Why it’s good for you

  • Regulates Sleep Cycles

    Melatonin is a hormone that your body produces naturally, which plays a crucial role in regulating your sleep-wake cycle. Supplementing with melatonin can help synchronize your internal clock, especially useful if you have irregular sleep patterns.

  • Gradual Release for Sustained Efficacy

    The gradual release formula ensures a steady supply of melatonin throughout the night. This mimics the body’s natural melatonin release, helping you stay asleep longer and improving sleep quality.

  • Enhances Overall Sleep Quality

    Melatonin not only helps you fall asleep faster but also improves the overall quality of your sleep. Better sleep quality means you wake up feeling refreshed and more alert during the day.
