Life Extension Melatonin EU 1 mg 60 capsules

Life Extension Melatonin EU 1 mg

60 capsules

Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in the evening and at night. According to an approved EU health claim, a 1mg dose of supplemental melatonin contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep (when taken shortly before bed). The low 1mg dose is generally well-tolerated and suitable for occasional use – when travelling across time zones, working shifts, or during occasional periods of difficulty falling asleep. Made in the EU, gluten-free, non-GMO.

Life Extension Melatonin EU 1 mg

Deep within the brain, in a tiny gland called the pineal gland, melatonin production begins every evening as the surrounding light naturally fades. Its level in the blood rises in the evening, peaks at night, and falls again in the morning. This rhythm acts as an internal clock, telling the body it's time to rest, slow down, and sleep. The modern lifestyle – blue light from screens, shift work, travelling across time zones, an irregular routine – often disrupts this rhythm. Furthermore, in older adults, the natural production of melatonin gradually declines with age.
