About this item

  • For occasional sleeplessness – Melatonin is a hormone that your body releases, mostly at night, to make falling asleep easier. At 500 mcg of melatonin per vegetarian capsule, this is one of our low-dose melatonin formulas for gentle sleep support.
  • Inhibits oxidative stress – Melatonin is also a powerful antioxidant: it can quench oxidizing free radical compounds. Fighting oxidative stress in this manner promotes cellular health, DNA health and restful sleep.
  • Promotes immune response – A strong dose of melatonin can support a healthy immune response. This is because melatonin can encourage specialized immune cells called T-helper cells, which rally other parts of the immune system when challenged.
  • Ingredients matter – We use only the finest raw ingredients with the purity and potency you deserve. The majority of our products are non-GMO, gluten-free and manufactured in the USA—and a Certificate of Analysis is available for every one.    
  • Live your healthiest life – We believe the answers to a healthier life are within reach, and that scientific research is the key to getting us there. That’s why so many of our formulas feature specific ingredients and amounts based on scientific studies.

What Is Melatonin?
