Melatonin
An all natural sleep aid.

MelatoninScientific reports show that Melatonin can clearly help bring on sleep. Many of the reports on Melatonin herald the use of the hormone, as a god send for people who experience trouble sleeping. It cited a number of clinical studies in which “researchers found that as little as a tenth of a milligram makes dozing off easier, no matter what time of day.” People also use Melatonin for other reasons than just to restore sleep. Travelers and air crews are using Melatonin because it is believed to help ward off jet lag by helping to reset the body’s sleep clock. Traveling across time zones disrupts the body’s circadian cycle, this is the rhythms associated with the 24-hour cycle of the earth’s rotation. Research has shown that groups taking Melatonin “reported significantly less jet lag and sleep disturbances.”

It is a fact, that when darkness is registered by the eyes Melatonin is secreted by the pineal gland, which is a pea-size structure at the center of the brain. All creatures, even single-celled organisms, have internal clocks that manage a variety of natural rhythms, and Melatonin is believed to be responsible for regulating sleep rhythms. Studies that were conducted by Drs. Walter Pierpaoli and William Regelson reported in their book, The Melatonin Miracle, switched the pineal glands of young mice with those of older ones. According to Newsweek, the results showed the young mice “grew decrepit and died in late middle age, but the older ones surpassed their life expectancies by an average of 30%,”. The theory is that mice, like most animals including humans, produce high levels of Melatonin early in life, but that production steadily declines as we get older. By supplementing a diet with Melatonin, it is supposed that the effects of aging can be delayed also for people.
