Melatonin, Melatonin Chewables, Zahler, Orange Flavor, 5 mg, 120 Chewables

Melatonin is popularly called the sleep hormone. Produced by the pineal gland, it regulates our internal clock (sleep - wakefulness), preventing it from getting out of rhythm. In order to help the body produce melatonin on its own and in the required quantities, you need to follow the rules that we love to break. First, go to bed before 12 o'clock at night, turning off all light sources, and most importantly, get enough sleep. You can replenish the reserves of this hormone from food: rice, raisins, nuts, parsley, corn, tomatoes, radishes, figs, carrots - they are ready to help with this with pleasure. But scientists are increasingly inclined to the opinion that the absorption of Melatonin from food is extremely low. But when consuming caffeine and drugs containing caffeine, tobacco, alcohol, antidepressants and some anti-inflammatory drugs, the production of Melatonin is significantly reduced. Its production also decreases with age. This results in sleep disturbance, frequent awakenings, and as a consequence – insomnia.

Today, doctors increasingly recommend that patients with sleep disorders, instead of sleeping pills, primarily replenish the lack of Melatonin with biologically active supplements.

Also, in addition to sleep regulation, other medicinal, scientifically proven properties of this hormone are known. Melatonin produces an anti-stress effect (elevates mood and mental state), controls blood pressure, deactivates aging processes, strengthens the immune system, and eliminates some types of headaches.
