🌙 Do you rely on melatonin for better sleep? 🌙

Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland in the brain. It is best known for regulating your sleep-wake cycle, also called the circadian rhythm.

Darkness triggers melatonin production, which prepares your body for sleep. When this process is disrupted, your sleep can suffer, and your reproductive hormones and inflammation levels may become unbalanced. Some common reasons melatonin might be out of sync include:

- Night shifts
- Screen time before bed
- Jet lag
- Aging

Melatonin helps you wind down by blocking signals that keep you awake. Many people use melatonin supplements to help with sleep troubles. But is it safe to take melatonin every night?

😴 The good news is that high-quality supplements do not seem to interfere with your body’s natural melatonin production. It is still wise to consult a holistic provider to find the right dosage and timing to get the most benefit for your sleep.
