One area of interest has been using melatonin alone, or in combination with phototherapy, to address circadian rhythm disruptions. Some evidence suggests that melatonin levels may be lower in elderly individuals with insomnia compared to age-matched individuals without insomnia, and supplementation in such cases appears modestly beneficial. Another circadian rhythm disruption occurs in shift workers, who often find it difficult to adjust to working at night and resting during the day; the role of melatonin in easing this adjustment is uncertain and often less beneficial than phototherapy. In various species including humans, melatonin administration has been shown to decrease motor activity, induce fatigue, and lower body temperature, particularly at higher doses. This effect on body temperature may contribute to melatonin’s influence on rest–wake cycles, as observed in cases of jet lag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere Does It Come From?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pineal gland, or epiphysis, synthesizes and secretes melatonin, a structurally simple hormone that communicates information about environmental lighting to various parts of the body. Ultimately, melatonin has the ability to align biological rhythms and has important effects on the reproductive function of many animals. The pineal gland is a small organ shaped like a pinecone (hence its name). It is located on the midline and attached to the posterior end of the roof of the third ventricle in the brain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTravelling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother condition involving circadian rhythm disruption is jet lag; in this case, it has repeatedly been demonstrated that taking melatonin close to the target bedtime of the destination can alleviate symptoms—melatonin shows the greatest benefit when jet lag is predicted to be most severe (e.g. crossing many time zones). Travellers now have the option of taking melatonin to counteract the effects that flying has on achieving restorative rest. Using melatonin during travel aims to align bedtime with the normal scheduled hours of the destination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRest \u0026amp; Relaxation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShift Work Adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJet Lag Relief\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpiration date: 10\/2029\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSupplement Facts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol\u003e\n\u003ccol\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach tablet contains:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMelatonin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDicalcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, silicon dioxide, vegetable magnesium stearate, and vegetable stearic acid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContains no:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gluten, soy, wheat, corn, eggs, dairy, yeast, citrus, preservatives, artificial flavour or colour, starch, or sugar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDirections \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirections\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdults:\u003c\/strong\u003e Take ½–2 tablets daily or as directed by your health-care practitioner.
