Sleep | Sleep Extra Strength

Melatonin is a hormone that is primarily responsible for regulating the body's circadian rhythms, which are the natural cycles that control sleep-wake patterns. The production and release of melatonin are influenced by light exposure; its levels naturally increase in response to darkness, signaling the body that it is time to prepare for sleep, and decrease with exposure to light, signaling it is time to wake up. This function makes melatonin critical for promoting regular sleep patterns and overall sleep quality. Melatonin works by binding to specific receptors in the brain that help reduce nerve activity.

Beyond melatonin, we include other helpful ingredients in our sleep and our sleep immune products:

• Valerian Root – an herb that has been used for centuries as a traditional sleep aid, it is thought to influence GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter in the brain that helps to promote relaxation and reduce feelings of occasional stress.
• Lemon Balm - also known as Melissa officinalis, Lemon Balm has been traditionally used to promote relaxation.
• L-Theanine - an amino acid found naturally in tea leaves, particularly in green tea, L-Theanine is known for its ability to promote relaxation.
• Sambucus nigra Elderberry Extract – this herb has been traditionally used for immune support for centuries. In addition to immune support, Sambucus nigra elderberry has powerful antioxidant properties.
