Melatonin 6
Hour Timed Release
3 mg 60 vegetarian tablets
Item# 01786 |
Melatonin releases from the pineal gland, reaching
its peak at night to help maintain healthy cell health throughout the
body. Secretion of melatonin declines significantly with age, as the
pineal gland becomes calcified. Jet lag, shift work, and poor vision can
disrupt melatonin cycles.
Melatonin keeps our circadian cycle in tune. Not
only does this hormone work to maintain cell health, it appears to
regulate a system of self-repair and regeneration. As melatonin
diminishes with age, our biological functions are impaired. Melatonin
also has strong antioxidant properties. It directly scavenges both
hydroxyl and peroxyl free radicals, and it does so more effectively than
most other antioxidants. It also greatly potentiates the efficiency of
other endogenous and exogenous antioxidants. Melatonin is especially
important for protecting cellular DNA against peroxynitrite damage by
inhibiting peroxynitrite free radical reactions. Some research has found
that melatonin increases the speed of falling asleep and adds to the
quality of sleep in about 60% of people who use it.
