Melatonin is the hormone that our brains produce to prepare for sleep. As we age, we naturally make less melatonin. Other factors such as time changes, jet lag, excess stress, and light exposure at night may also contribute to insufficient production of melatonin. Supplementing 20 minutes before bedtime can reset your sleep-wake cycle and help you to fall - and stay - asleep. Health First Melatonin Supreme contains USP grade, MelaPure™ melatonin, which is produced in Italy under strict manufacturing standards in a patented process. It is guaranteed not to contain any serotonin, which is commonly found in melatonin supplements. The formula is free from common allergens and timed to gradually release 3 mg of melatonin into the blood stream over a 6-to-8-hour period to support healthy sleep.
