Melatonin is a hormone involved in the regulation of the sleep-wake rhythm, which is secreted mainly from the pineal gland of the brain. The amount of light affects melatonin secretion. It is secreted the most at night and in winter. Excretion is individual and age also affects it. In small children, melatonin is secreted in abundance, but with age, melatonin secretion decreases, as well as as a result of, among other things, stress and heavy alcohol consumption.
The Melatosell® product can nutritionally replace the body's own reduced melatonin secretion. Melatonin helps shorten the time to fall asleep, as it prepares the body for sleep by lowering the body's temperature and level of alertness. Melatonin does not affect the structure of sleep and does not cause morning fatigue.
The melatonin preparation can also be used for the problem of falling asleep due to the time difference. In this case, it is taken several days after arriving at the destination. Melatonin restores the body's own internal circadian rhythm.
Melatosell® tablets can be sucked, so they work quickly. The absorption of melatonin is enhanced by taking the tablets on an empty stomach.
