Description: Melatonin

Health claims

Melatonin contributes to the alleviation of subjective feelings of jet lag.

Melatonin contributes to the reduction of time taken to fall asleep.

Melatonin production is highest during adolescence and decreases with age. Therefore, taking melatonin improves sleep quality and helps regulate our biological clock.

Melatonin naturally regulates sleep and has none of the side effects of conventional sleeping pills.

Melatonin relieves tension, relaxes the muscles, is naturally sleep inducing, promotes healthy sleep, diminishes grogginess after sleep and reduces night-time awakenings.

In addition, melatonin helps the body to adapt to changes in its biological clock, which helps to avoid jet-lag in travellers.

Sublingual melatonin acts effectively when rapidly absorbed through the buccal mucosa.

Detailed information

Insomnia is lack of sleep or decreased sleep quality. It is a fairly common disorder that may be due to various causes, such as stress, pathological factors, lifestyle, and it negatively affects the individual’s ability to function during the day. To help regulate the sleep cycle and promote rest, melatonin offers an alternative to traditional sleeping pills.

Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland from tryptophan and it is regulated by the light-dark cycle. This hormone has several functions: it helps to regulate circadian rhythm and sleep and waking processes, it acts as a neurotransmitter, and also has immunomodulatory and antioxidant properties.

Melatonin’s primary role in the body is regulating day and night cycles, or sleep-wake cycles. Darkness causes the body to produce more melatonin, signalling to the body to prepare for sleep. Conversely, light decreases melatonin production, making the body prepare for waking1.

Melatonin has a chronoregulatory function, to adjust the sleep phase and resynchronise the biological clock2: studies to investigate the effect of melatonin on sleep and circadian rhythm have found a clear link between melatonin and circadian rhythm. Melatonin therefore helps to induce sleep in people whose circadian rhythm is disrupted, and can be used in case of insomnia associated with jet lag and for shift workers3-4.

In addition to its effect on circadian rhythm and the sleep cycle, melatonin has an immunomodulatory and antioxidant function. Its immunomodulatory activity has been demonstrated in in vivo and in vitro studies, where it was seen to act in innate response specifically on the immune system5. Through its antioxidant activity, melatonin stimulates the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione reductase6-7.

Im travling on an 8 hour flight, if I take this tablet 30 minutes before would i definetly fall asleep?
It is more effective if you take melatonin for a while. But indeed there are people who notice its effect from day one.
I am a coach Driver can I drive with this ?
its effect is to help you fall asleep. Melatonin can cause drowsiness, so it should be used with caution if the effects of drowsiness may be associated with a safety risk.
Is melatonin addictive?
No, melatonin capsules are not addictive.
What is the difference between sublingual melatonin and melatonin? Thanks Suz.
The difference is the directions: 2 capsules per day with half a glass of water, half an hour before bedtime or 2 tablets a day to be melted under the tongue, 20 minutes before bedtime. Sublingual melatonin has a more direct effect.
Is this product licensed for use in France or other European countries? Thank you.
Yes it is.

Ingredients of Melatonine: Melatonin (synthetic origin, purity 99% min.), Maltodextrin, vegetable-based capsule: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.
Do you have to take this capsules on a daily basis , or does it help if you was to have it on that one night that you are having trouble sleeping ?
Melatonin capsules should be taken daily, about two hours before going to sleep.
Will it help my insomnia?
Melatonin in capsules promotes the onset of sleep by taking 2 capsules before going to bed. Another recommendation for insomnia is Melissa + Valerian, which promotes the duration of sleep.
Can the melatonin sublingual be used for children? My son is 7 and has sleep problems.
No, is for adult use only.
Does melatonin have side effects?
No, melatonin in the recommended dose does not have any side effects.

Melatonin is a hormone that helps regulate the sleep-wake cycle. It is generally considered safe for most people when taken at the appropriate dosage and for a short duration. However, if you suffer from heart palpitations or any heart-related issues, it's crucial to be cautious and consult with a doctor before taking melatonin or any new supplement.
