Restful sleep is an important natural element that helps to keep us fit and healthy. The effects of shift work, travel, and stress can all throw your body clock out of sync. Melatonin with
added vitamin B6 can help to restore your body's normal bio-rhythms.
Melatonin is an endogenous hormone produced by the pineal gland, which plays a central role in regulating your body's bio-rhythms. A melatonin supplement can be used to help reset this beneficial process . The natural melatonin hormone is only released after dark and has a sleep-promoting effect . The level of melatonin in your blood rises slowly and tends to peak in the middle of the night (usually between the hours of 2 to 4 a.m.). As the early hours of the morning approach, the body's melatonin levels drop again because light inhibits melatonin production.
Sleep studies have shown that melatonin has a positive influence on the regulation of the body's sleep-wake cycle . This includes a capacity to address issues such as insomnia, and problems falling asleep and staying asleep. In addition, melatonin can also promote the release of antioxidant enzymes by activating certain receptors . This action counteracts premature aging and helps to maintain your general health.
Insomnia can cause severe performance impairment in your daily life. So naturally, many sufferers would like to find a product which offers them positive support. While prescription drugs often have severe side effects of their own, dietary supplements which include
melatonin act gently and are well tolerated.
Vitamin B6 plays a key role in building up and converting your body's proteins. It is also an important coenzyme for amino acid metabolism. Vitamin B6 is included in our formula to help promote overall relaxation. This vitamin helps regulate hormone levels that affect mood and
sleep by helping the body produce serotonin (which regulates mood), melatonin (which promotes sleep), and norepinephrine (which helps the body cope with stress) .
Melatonin intake is usually well-tolerated and has no apparent short- or long-term side effects . Nevertheless, taking any food supplement can potentially cause undesirable effects because everyone reacts differently to hormones and other vital substances. This is especially
likely in situations where specific dosage recommendations are not followed. In addition, interactions between melatonin and other drugs are also possible. Furthermore, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should always consult the doctor responsible for your treatment before you start taking this preparation.
Studies suggest there is a link between melatonin production and working night shifts . The time difference involved means your body's metabolic processes can change, causing your inner clock to get out of sync. This phenomenon is also known as "social jet lag".
Your body's natural sleep-wake cycle is also negatively affected by the classic jet lag symptoms associated with long flights. In each case, your body's own melatonin production is inhibited, which is why using a dietary supplement can often be a sensible option.
As we age, our body's metabolic activity decreases, so there is less natural melatonin available. A dietary supplement can be used to compensate for this deficiency. It can also be used during times of increased demand and/or when you experience frequent interruptions to your sleep. For example, if you often have to get up at night because your child needs attention, you may benefit from taking melatonin to get you back to sleep faster.
