If you are having trouble sleeping, melatonin may prove to be a useful supplement.

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a hormone. Its main role in the body is regulating your sleep-wake cycle or day and night cycle. Darkness makes the body produce greater quantities of melatonin, which helps you to fall asleep faster. Light decreases the production of melatonin and alerts the body to get ready for wakefulness. Some people who have difficulty sleeping have low levels of melatonin.

About Puritans Pride Melatonin Sleep Aid

Research suggests that melatonin supplements by mouth can help with sleep disorders including jet lag, insomnia, delayed sleep phase and shift-work disorder (where people’s daily work schedule alters). Puritans Pride Melatonin Sleep Aid can be a great choice if you want to improve your quality of sleep and mood.

Melatonin may also be taken by mouth for insomnia linked with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); insomnia linked with traumatic brain injury (TBI); rapid eye movement sleep behaviour disorder (RBD); and sleep difficulties in children with developmental disorders. It is also taken by mouth to aid sleep after stopping the use of benzodiazepine drugs and to minimise the side-effects of stopping smoking. Melatonin can help blind people to fix a day and night cycle.

Blood Pressure Effects

When taken at bedtime, melatonin may provide blood pressure support in maintaining blood pressure within a normal range. This can help support good-quality sleep and a relaxed mood.

How to Aid Melatonin Production

Melatonin levels increase about two hours before you go to bed. Create the best environment for it to work by maintaining low lights before bed. Finish using your smartphone, computer or tablet—the green and blue light from these items can neutralise the effects of melatonin. If you are watching television, make sure you are six feet or more away from the screen. In addition, turn off overhead lights which are bright. Meanwhile, you can programme your body to make melatonin for sleep at the correct time of day via exposure to daylight in the morning and afternoon. Take a walk outdoors or sit next to a sunny window. Ensure that you relax before bed, keeping the lights down and always sleep in a dark, cool, comfortable bedroom.
