WHY SHOULD WE TAKE MELATONINE PLUS?

A large number of people suffer from sleeping problems. The current rhythm of life and other factors negatively influence the duration and quality of sleep:

• Stress produced by work, worries, exams.
• Lack of regularity in the hours of eating and resting.
• Insufficient rest time.
• Light or noise during rest hours.
• Changes in work schedules or time zones (jet lag).
• Copious dinners, alcohol.

The body follows a circadian rhythm of wakefulness-sleep. The sleep and wake states are mediated by changes in interconnections of neuronal systems that are modulated by various neurotransmitters.

Serotonin is one of these neuromodulators. It is produced from tryptophan, an essential amino acid, and is the precursor of melatonin.

Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland during the hours of darkness. It is therefore essential to modify unhealthy lifestyle habits and, when deemed necessary, the diet can be supplemented with some nutrients and substances.

Vitamins C, B2, B3, B6 and B12, melatonin and Whitania somnifera have proved useful in facilitating sleep conciliation. Melatonin Plus contains these substances in optimal daily amounts.
