Melatonin 1 mg capsules
The causes of difficulties to fall asleep can be manifold: daily stress, pressure to perform and a hectic pace are some of them. Melatonin is a naturally occurring messenger substance that plays an important role in the human body in controlling the day-night rhythm. It helps to reduce the time it takes to fall asleep and is also helpful in cases of jet lag. Especially during long-haul flights, the day-night rhythm is disturbed, which can lead to general exhaustion, insomnia at night and early awakening. For frequent travellers and shift workers, but also for older people, melatonin supplementation can be beneficial, as the body's own melatonin production decreases with advancing age.
