Sometimes poor bedtime habits‚ stress‚ and constant travel can reduce the healthy production of melatonin by the pineal gland behind your brain. Melatonin is a hormone synthesized from tryptophan and is essential for the regulation of a healthy sleep/wake cycle.
Douglas Labs’ Melatonin P.R. Tablets provide 3 mg of melatonin in each serving. The body begins to produce melatonin at night time or in the dark. Any kind of disruption related to light exposure around bedtime could inhibit this production and affect your sleep cycle. This is because melatonin is responsible for calming your body in preparation for sleep. Our melatonin production also slowly decreases with age so it’s important to supplement it as best as we can.

I keep a tube on hand at all times for emergencies. So helpful to lessen inflamation and bruising from sprains and contusions. Once I sprained my ankle and applied the ointment to the area that hurt the next day I realized that I missed an area because it looked so much worse than the major spot. Have also given to a neighbor that had suffered a sprain a week earlier, she was completely amazed at the impressive results!
This product has helped me tend to inflammation when I cannot take NASAIDS / Advil to tend to many issues. I take it daily, and then will increase my dose when I need extra support. This supplement has been very helpful.
