What is melatonin?

Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain that plays a crucial role in regulating the sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin levels typically rise in the evening as it gets dark, promoting feelings of relaxation and sleepiness, and then decrease in the morning when it's time to wake up.

Melatonin acts as an antioxidant by neutralizing free radicals, preventing them from damaging our cells. This allows our bodies to focus on repairing and regenerating tissues, including muscles, skin, and bones. When we get enough restful sleep, our bodies have more time to repair and rejuvenate, promoting overall health and well-being.

How will this test help me?

Melatonin testing shows imbalances that can be fixed with lifestyle changes and/or supplements. Results offer insight on:

Low Melatonin at Night

A pattern of low nighttime levels can be corrected with nutrients that help your body make melatonin and by creating healthy habits that will optimize melatonin levels.

High Melatonin During the Day

Too much daytime production can be corrected with bright light, such as sunshine, or a light box like those prescribed for seasonal affective disorder.
