Allnutrition Melatonin - 120 Caps

Allnutrition Melatonin is melatonin in easy-to-swallow capsules. A busy schedule, daily stress, and anxiety can make it difficult to relax in the evening before bed.

Key features:
- Reduces the time needed to fall asleep.
- Reduces jet lag.

Melatonin is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing jet lag or those who work irregular hours. The supplement helps alleviate the symptoms of jet lag by adjusting the body's internal clock to new time zones. For shift workers, melatonin can help regulate sleep patterns disrupted by varying work schedules. By promoting a more consistent sleep-wake cycle, this supplement can improve overall sleep quality and daytime alertness.

Melatonin itself is a natural hormone produced by the pineal gland, a small gland located in the brain. Its production increases in darkness, signalling the body that it is time to sleep. In the presence of light, especially daylight, melatonin production decreases, signalling wakefulness. Taking melatonin shortly before bedtime helps reduce the time needed to fall asleep. Additionally, even small dosages can help alleviate the experience of jet lag.

Melatonin also has functions in controlling blood pressure and regulating seasonal rhythmicity, including reproduction, fattening, moulting, and hibernation. It acts as an antioxidant, protecting against oxidative stress.

In humans, melatonin primarily acts through two types of melatonin receptors, which are part of the G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) family. It also functions as a high-capacity antioxidant, combating cellular oxidative stress by neutralising free radicals and promoting the expression of antioxidant enzymes. Melatonin's concentration in the mitochondrial matrix is significantly higher than in blood plasma, emphasising its role in maintaining mitochondrial integrity.

Melatonin's interaction with the immune system includes potential anti-inflammatory effects and augmentation of cytokine production, which may help mitigate acquired immunodeficiencies. It is also posited to regulate weight gain by inhibiting leptin, a hormone that signals satiety and reduces food intake. Melatonin, by modulating leptin's actions, may restore leptin sensitivity during the daytime, counteracting leptin resistance.
