Many adults experience frequent or occasional sleep disturbances, including difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too early. Melatonin is the most popular natural sleep aid because it is non-habit-forming and effective.
Melatonin is the body’s own natural sleep hormone, produced in the brain’s pineal gland each evening when darkness falls. It is part of the “biological clock” that produces the circadian rhythm and prepares the body for sleep. But the natural rhythm of this clock can be disrupted, resulting in difficulty sleeping.
Research shows that taking a melatonin supplement 30–90 minutes before bedtime helps reset the body’s sleep-wake cycle, an aspect of the circadian rhythm. Melatonin helps reduce the time it takes to fall asleep (sleep onset latency aspect of sleep quality) in people who fall asleep slowly. It also helps increase the total sleep time (aspect of sleep quality) in people experiencing sleep restriction or altered sleep schedule (e.g., shift work or jet lag).
Natural Factors Melatonin 5 mg is made from non-animal sources. The convenient sublingual tablets ensure efficient, reliable absorption. Sleep is very important. If you have a serious sleep disorder, consult a health care practitioner.
Contains no artificial colours, preservatives, or sweeteners; no starch, sugar, wheat, gluten, yeast, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, salt, tree nuts, or genetically modified genes or proteins or GMOs. Suitable for vegetarians.
