Melatonin, a naturally occurring indolamine, is crucial for regulating biological rhythms, including the sleep/wake cycle, and is synthesized primarily in the pineal gland. It supports antioxidant activity, cardiovascular health, and immune function.
Melatonin secretion is inhibited by light and stimulated by darkness. Supplemental melatonin has shown to benefit sleep patterns in individuals with irregular schedules, such as shift workers and travelers across time zones.
Research indicates that doses between 0.5 mg to 5 mg at bedtime effectively support sleep, with higher doses showing greater efficacy, although doses above 5 mg do not enhance benefits further.
Its antioxidant properties extend to supporting cellular health by scavenging free radicals, enhancing glutathione production, and promoting antioxidant enzyme activity.
Melatonin also supports cardiovascular health by maintaining blood pressure and aiding in inflammatory balance.*
Additionally, melatonin aids immune system function by supporting cytokine balance and immune cell activity.
