Pure Encapsulations Melatonin .5 mg

$11.80

Description

Melatonin is produced by the pineal gland, the organ which regulates the body’s wake/sleep/wake cycle. Melatonin is activated by darkness and depressed by light.* Melatonin nutritionally augments the functioning of the pineal gland, supporting the body’s natural sleep cycle.* In one study, melatonin supported sleep onset when taken in the evening and did not cause morning drowsiness. A double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel design study suggested that melatonin supplementation enhanced sleep onset and sleep quality in subjects. One double blind placebo-controlled study involving an international flight crew suggested that melatonin supported healthy sleep and recovery patterns in these individuals.*

Each capsule of Pure Encapsulations Melatonin contains 0.5 mg per capsule (60 capsules per bottle).
