Why take melatonin?
Melatonin is a hormone that the body produces on its own: its levels increase with the onset of darkness and signal the body to begin a night's rest. In some situations, this mechanism goes awry - when changing time zones, irregular schedules, prolonged exposure to screens in the evening or simply due to chronic stress.
Melatonin supplements are often chosen as a support in the following cases: it is difficult to fall asleep on time, nighttime sleep is superficial or shorter than normal, the body takes a long time to adapt after a flight with a change in time zone. It is not a sleeping pill in the classical sense - melatonin does not suppress the nervous system, but acts through natural circadian rhythm receptors.
How to take melatonin 5 mg
Manufacturer's recommendation: one tablet 20-30 minutes before bedtime. The tablet is not divided - the whole form ensures uniform release of the substance. Melatonin can cause drowsiness, so it is recommended to take it just before bedtime, not during the day.
A dosage of 5 mg is suitable for adults. If you are new to melatonin, consult your doctor about the optimal dosage, as individual sensitivity to the substance varies.
Who is this format suitable for?
Tablets are convenient for those who prefer a fixed dose without measuring drops or powder. 120 tablets per package is a four-month supply when taken daily, making the format cost-effective.
The gelatin-free and animal-free capsule shell is suitable for vegetarians. The product is manufactured in the USA by Puritan's Pride, a brand that has specialized in dietary supplements since the 1960s.
