Is melatonin really that amazing?

What is melatonin?Melatonin is an amine hormone naturally secreted by the body,mainly by the pineal gland,and has a wide range of effects on the reproductive system,the endocrine system,the immune system,the central nervous system and many metabolic processes.The secretion of melatonin has a distinct circadian rhythm.When the body secretes melatonin at night,during the day bright due to light is inhibited secretion,this secretion characteristics help the body to adjust the sleep state and sleep time.

Is melatonin really that amazing?As we age,the secretion of melatonin in the body gradually decreases,and the decline of melatonin in the body of elderly sleep disorder patients is more obvious,so more and more elderly people are experiencing painful sleep problems.In that case,a little exogenous melatonin supplementation should also promote sleep,right?Not necessarily.However,here are three things you can try.

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommends trying melatonin for the following three conditions that can cause trouble sleeping.

1.Jet lag

Time difference is the difference in time between two places,for example,Beijing time is 8:30 pm,but New York time is 8:30 am.

When we come from Beijing to New York,the body’s biological clock does not adapt to the black and white reversal,daytime lethargy,slow thinking,and at night may be the spirit of sleep,and may even have no appetite for food,the whole body is not energetic.

2.shift work

Some studies have shown that melatonin may be helpful in improving the quality and duration of sleep after a night shift.

The American Academy of Sleep Medicine also recommends that you can take melatonin to improve the night shift after the problem of poor sleep during the day;so if you change from day shift to night shift,after the shift can not sleep or sleep,you can try melatonin.

3.sleep phase shift syndrome

This term is too professional,paraphrase it.It is generally after 2:00 am to fall asleep,some people may have to stay up until dawn to fall asleep,even if the day sleepy do not want,basically it is difficult to sleep early children.

Once you fall asleep,the length of sleep and normal people is about the same,but sleep so late in the morning is certainly difficult to get up,so seriously affect work and life.
