Its chemical precursor is serotonin, a neurotransmitter derived from tryptophan. Serotonin must be acetylated and methylated to form melatonin. Synthesis and production of melatonin is affected by light exposure to the eyes; serum concentrations of melatonin are typically low during the day hours and increase when dark. Since it has important effects in affecting circadian rhythms, melatonin has been reported to have significant effects on sleep-wake cycles and antioxidant function.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 or more tablets per day or as recommended by your health care professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBENEFITS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeficiency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNighttime secretion of melatonin is at its highest during childhood and decreases over time. Research suggests that melatonin supplements support healthy sleep patterns in certain individuals, such as the elderly, individuals with nighttime working hours, or people traveling across time zones. Low levels of melatonin in the body are often associated with sleep disturbances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSleep Support\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMelatonin supports the quality of healthy sleep as it relates to falling asleep, sleep efficiency and awakening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntioxidant Support\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMelatonin has been shown to be a powerful antioxidant inducer. It supports glutathione production, and stimulates intracellular antioxidant enzyme production, including superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase. It has also been found to scavenge free radicals and promote cytokine balance, which helps maintain normal inflammatory balance. Melatonin is also able to pass through the lipid part of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and act as an antioxidant in cells. It has also been found to maintain healthy blood pressure levels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ORTHO MOLECULAR PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46331231043734,"sku":null,"price":34.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/3521\/4486\/files\/melatonin-10-mg-609_286637ea-a32c-448e-b4b6-46f5c0e177b5.tmb-media470.png?v=1775578529","url":"https:\/\/wvuqwn-p7.myshopify.com\/products\/melatonin-10mg","provider":"Granite State Compounding + Wellness Pharmacy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
