WHAT IS MELATONIN?
Melatonin is a pineal hormone naturally synthesized by the body in a coordinated way by various cells and tissues. Its release is limited to night signals (or darkness) only and secretion is blocked in the daytime. It acts in different ways and shows immediate, perspective and chronobiotic effects.
MELATONIN FUNCTIONS/USES
Melatonin supplements are effective against various disorders highlighted below:
- Insomnia: Melatonin is available in various dosage forms without prescription for sleep inducing effects and to treat insomnia.
- Jet leg: Jet leg is characterized by sleep disturbance and tiredness after traveling. Melatonin helps prevent jet leg symptoms.
- Delayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD): DSWPD is delayed sleep compared to the normal sleeping time and ultimately late awakening. American Academy of Sleep Medicine and randomized control trials concluded that melatonin shows improvements against DSWPD.
- Sleep Disorders in children : Children are badly affected by sleeping disorders especially those who are already suffering from ADHD (attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder) and ASD (autism spectrum disorder).
- Anxiety: Disturbance in sleep quality is directly linked to stress and anxiety.
Many research-based studies indicate that Melatonin supplements regulate normal sleep cycle and prevent all these sleep-associated disorders
