Thorne Melaton-5 60c

Thorne Melaton-5 Supports sleep, maintain normal circadian rhythms, and individuals with age related decrease in melatonin. Melatonin, the primary hormone of the pineal gland, is a powerful "chronobiotic" that helps maintain the body's normal circadian rhythms. Individuals who have difficulty sleeping or who have altered circadian rhythms because of jet lag or night shift work, melatonin supplementation promotes the resynchronization of this cycle. Supplementation also benefits those whose difficulty sleeping is caused by the aging related decrease in the body's ability to synthesize melatonin from the amino acid tryptophan. Melatonin exerts its sleep-promoting efficacy by decreasing the amount of time needed to fall asleep, by promoting the ability to stay asleep, and by enhancing the depth of sleep. Adequate melatonin levels have been reported to be a positive factor in cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, GI, antioxidant activity, and bone health.

Recommended use: Take 1 capsule at bedtime or as recommended by a health professional.
