Have you been having trouble sleeping? You probably have noticed fatigue and decreasing productivity during the day. You need 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep every night, which leaves you refreshed and powered up. However, it may be challenging to get enough quality sleep because of one reason or another. Luckily you can turn to melatonin* and other related ingredients and sort your sleeping problems*.
What is Melatonin?
Melatonin is a hormone that’s made by the pineal gland, which is located in your brain. It alerts your body when it’s time for you to sleep and wake up. You could call it the sleep hormone.
The melatonin levels start rising in the evening after sunset when your body makes more and drop in the morning as the sun rises. The amount made by your body depends on the amount of light and body clock.
When you have trouble falling asleep and staying asleep (insomnia), you can take melatonin supplements*. The melatonin supplement can help you:
