Melatonin 3 mg. 180 Capsules

If you’re experiencing difficulty sleeping or find that you wake in the middle of the night and have difficulty going back to sleep, you may be suffering from a melatonin deficiency. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland that regulates the body’s rhythms to promote daily processes like sleep. Under normal circumstances, melatonin levels will rise in the mid- to late evening hours and stay high through the night, usually tapering off in the early morning.

Age is believed to be one factor affecting how much melatonin the body makes; production typically decreases as you get older. The amount of exposure you get to light is another factor that determines melatonin production; the change in melatonin production resulting from the decrease in daylight hours during the winter months can contribute to symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD).
