Melatonin
This natural hormone is your body’s natural sleep signal, telling you when it’s time to rest.
Melatonin is produced from the amino acid tryptophan. It plays a central role in regulating your circadian rhythm, your body's internal clock, making it essential for restorative sleep.
Beyond its well-known role in sleep, research shows that melatonin promotes immune function and cognitive performance. And in 1993, researchers found that melatonin is also a very powerful antioxidant that quenches free radicals, protecting cellular DNA from oxidative damage. In other words, an important ally for overall health and healthy aging!
