Melatonin

Circadian Rhythm Sleep profile This peptide is a hormone that your brain produces in response to darkness. It helps with the timing of your circadian rhythms 24 hour internal clock and with sleep. Being exposed to light at night can block melatonin production. Research suggests that melatonin plays other important roles in the body beyond sleep. However, these effects are not fully understood. This peptide’s dietary supplements can be made from animals or microorganisms, but most often they’re made synthetically. We only offer melatonin in raw format as a sleep aid. This peptide is often called the sleep hormone. It’s one of the most popular sleep aids and a common natural remedy to treat issues like insomnia. Multiple studies have demonstrated that melatonin can support better sleep. One study in 50 people with insomnia showed that taking melatonin two hours before bed helped people fall asleep faster and enhanced overall sleep quality. Another large analysis of 19 studies in children and adults with sleep disorders found that melatonin reduced the amount of time it took to fall asleep, increased total sleep time and improved sleep quality.
