About Melatonin 10mg
Melatonin 10mg is a higher-dose melatonin supplement used to regulate sleep-wake cycles in insomnia, jet lag, shift work disorder, and delayed sleep phase syndrome. Melatonin is a natural hormone produced by the pineal gland that signals the brain to prepare for sleep.
Benefits of Melatonin 10mg
- Sleep Onset: Reduces time taken to fall asleep significantly.
- Circadian Reset: Helps re-synchronise the internal clock after jet lag or shift changes.
- Non-Addictive: Does not cause physical dependence or withdrawal.
How Melatonin 10mg Works
Melatonin binds to MT1 and MT2 receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, suppressing the wake-promoting signals and shifting the circadian rhythm earlier. Exogenous melatonin at 10mg provides strong sleep-onset signalling, particularly useful for severe circadian misalignment.
