A dietary supplement to support normal sleep.*
Each serving contains 3 mg of the highest quality synthetic Melatonin in
a liposomal delivery system.
Recommended for:
• Sleep support*
• Antioxidant and Immune system support*
• Balanced circadian rhythms important for recovery from jet lag and
rotating shift work*
• Mood balance*
What is Melatonin?
• Melatonin is the principle hormone produced and secreted by the
brain’s pineal gland and is responsible for maintaining circadian
rhythm (the body’s biological clock), regulating the endocrine (hor-
mone) system and supporting the immune system.
• The level of melatonin produced by the body is heavily influenced
by sunlight. At night, the secretion of melatonin is much higher than
during the day. When this process is interrupted, certain symptoms
can occur such as disruptions in the sleep/wake cycle, headaches,
mental and physical fatigue and irritability.
Why is Melatonin important?
• Low levels of melatonin could result in poor sleep patterns, low
mood, delayed sleep phase syndrome, insomnia associated with
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, irritability, learning disorders,
poor concentration, seasonal affective disorder, menstrual distur-
bances and headaches.*
Sleep Quality
• Melatonin plays an important role in when we fall asleep and when
we wake up. Darkness stimulates the release of melatonin and light
suppresses its activity. Normal melatonin cycles are disrupted when
we are exposed to excessive light in the evening or too little light
during the daytime.
• Melatonin supports sleep onset and quality of sleep and increased
Rapid Eye Movement time, deep sleep and dreaming.* These chang-
es demonstrate better quality sleep, which produces greater mental,
physical and emotional rejuvenation.*
Melatonin can decrease the amount of time required to fall asleep,
increase the number of sleeping hours and support daytime alertness.*
Jet Lag and Rotating Shift Work
• Jet lag and rotating shift work can interfere with the body’s natural
circadian rhythm. Melatonin supports quality sleep and balanced
circadian rhythms in people with disrupted circadian rhythms (such
as those suffering from jet lag or poor vision or those who work the
night shift) and those with low melatonin levels (such as some elder-
ly).*
Menopause Support
• Melatonin is also one of the hormones that controls the timing and
release of female reproductive hormones. It helps determine when
menstruation begins, the frequency and duration of menstrual cy-
cles, and when menopause begins. It’s a powerful regulator of sex
hormone production and can effect mood, immunity, reproduction
and bone health.*
Melatonin supplements may benefit menopausal women by supporting
and sustaining sleep and by supporting osteoblasts that support bone
health.*
Immune and Antioxidant Support
• Melatonin has strong antioxidant properties and helps support
immune system strength.* As an antioxidant it is 6 to 10 times more
potent than vitamin E and is one of the few antioxidants that can
enter the mitochondria to protect it from free radical damage.*
Mood Support
• Some people experience a depressed mood when the low sunlight
levels (winter) are not sufficient for their pineal glands to decrease
melatonin production to its normal low daytime level. Melatonin
supplementation can support mood balance seasonally or in times
of low mood.*
Liposomal Delivery System
• A Liposomal liquid delivery system allows for flexible, convenient
dosing of Melatonin in order to address individual requirements.
• Liposomal technology helps to maintain the health benefits of
Melatonin by protecting it from the degradative environment of the
stomach. This is especially beneficial for patients who have had
gastric bypass or general gastro-intestinal dysfunction.*
• Liposomal encapsulation of ingredients represents a new delivery
system that appears to offer important advantages over existing
methods of delivery.
