Melatonin 10 mg, 60 capsules Swanson

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a natural hormone produced in the brain by the pineal gland. It plays a crucial role in regulating the body's sleep-wake cycle. When darkness falls, melatonin production increases – a signal to the body that it is time to sleep. When it gets light again, levels drop, and we wake up more naturally and refreshed.

Melatonin is also available as a dietary supplement and works in the same way as the body's own production. It is particularly useful for those who have difficulty falling asleep, suffer from insomnia, or have a disrupted circadian rhythm – e.g. due to jet lag or shift work.

How Does Melatonin Work?

Melatonin helps synchronize the circadian rhythm. People with sleep problems often have lower natural melatonin levels. By taking a supplement, you can support the body's natural ability to fall asleep and sleep more deeply.

After the age of 40, the body's melatonin production naturally declines, which can explain why many older people have sleep problems. A melatonin supplement can help restore balance and promote a more restful and restorative sleep.
