Many people experience frequent or occasional sleeplessness. It can have many causes, including difficulty falling asleep, restless sleep, or waking too early. Melatonin is a natural sleep hormone that can help you sleep well and awaken refreshed.
Melatonin is produced in the pineal gland inside the brain each day when darkness falls. It is part of the “internal clock” that prepares the body for sleep. But this clock can get out of phase due to shift work, jetlag, stress, depression, or when melatonin production declines with age.
Research shows that taking a melatonin supplement an hour before bed can reset the internal clock, allowing you to return to a restful pattern of regular sleep. Unlike pharmaceutical sleeping pills, which can disrupt the critical REM stage of sleep, melatonin works with the body’s natural hormones to support REM sleep.
Non-habit forming and effective Melatonin Timed Release from Webber Naturals provides just the right amount of melatonin throughout the night to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and awaken more refreshed, with no next-day grogginess.
