Features & Benefits

Although melatonin is not a vitamin or herb it is currently giving Vitamin C a run for its money in popularity. It is a neurohormone which is created in the brain and released via the pineal gland and is responsible for regulating the sleep and waking times. Melatonin is suppressed by light and stimulated by darkness. Clinical studies have shown that taking 3 milligrams of melatonin before bedtime on the first day of travel and for several days afterward improves alertness and reduces daytime fatigue.
