New Roots Herbal Liquid Melatonin
New Roots Herbal Liquid Melatonin
Liquid Melatonin is a fast-acting therapeutic alternative to tablet form. It helps restore a healthy circadian rhythm (sleep/wake cycle), critical for immune-system performance and great health in general.*
Melatonin is a hormone produced and secreted by the pineal gland, a pine cone–shaped gland measuring less than a centimetre in length, located deep within the brain. The primary function of melatonin is the maintenance of a healthy circadian rhythm; in other words, your sleep/wake cycle.* Light stops the release of melatonin, which poses a health concern for those who travel frequently and suffer from jet lag, or to shift-workers that lack this precious hormone to get their critical deep sleep to stay healthy.* Melatonin production also decreases with age, which can also contribute to chronic adult insomnia.*
Melatonin is safe, well-tolerated, and a side effect–free alternative to sleeping pills which won’t lead to dependency and addiction.* It can shorten the amount of time it takes to fall asleep, as well as improve sleep duration and quality.* Lack of sleep affects many aspects of daily life, including mental alertness, energy, and stamina.* Lack of sleep makes people more susceptible to accidents and mood swings.* Melatonin deficiency can also be linked to coronary heart disease and compromised immune function.* New Roots Herbal’s Liquid Melatonin is a convenient, fast-acting alternative to tablets and capsules. It has a natural mint flavour, and the dose can be easily calibrated to suit individual therapeutic needs.
Directions of Use:
Adults: Take 5–50 drops daily or as directed by your health-care practitioner. Sensitivity to melatonin is different from person to person. Take once a day, at or before bedtime.
