melatonin 5htp for quality sleep

Melatonin and 5HTP are two neurotransmitters your body produces that are vital to good quality sleep. If you are found wanting in either, you can develop insomnia. Instead of taking sleep aids, supplement your way back to healthy sleep with proper nutritional support!

Melatonin

The pineal hormone melatonin is a simple product of tryptophan and serotonin. In the pineal gland, melatonin is combined and released when the retina observes an absence of light. It won’t be made when there is bright light. Chronic exposure to electromagnetic fields may reduce melatonin production. Melatonin only helps you fall asleep when the room is dark.
Melatonin also functions as an antioxidant. It searches and destroys the harmful hydroxyl radical. Like other “anti-aging” hormones, melatonin is produced in large amounts in early life, but reduces steadily with age. That is why many people have more trouble falling asleep later in life. Using a melatonin supplement at bedtime will not only help you get to sleep more easily, but can slow down your aging process!

Dosage: For sleep disturbances, take one 3mg capsule daily, 30-60 minutes before bedtime. Discontinue use when sleep patterns become more normal.

5 Hydroxy-Tryptophan (5 HTP)

5 HTP is what helps to raise serotonin levels in the brain. When combined with vitamin B6, 5HTP can be converted into serotonin when the brain needs it.

Serotonin is best known for its help in maintaining a positive mood and sense of well being. Low serotonin levels can cause depression, and other nervous system conditions. Rather than use anti-depressants that hinder the re-uptake of serotonin, take a more holistic approach. Supplement your body with its, 5HTP.

Another crucial function of serotonin is to maintain our sleep during the night. Often when someone wakes during the night or can’t stay asleep, it is due to low serotonin levels. In these cases, just supplement with 5HTP at bedtime to safely and effectively improve insomnia.

Dosage: For depression, take one 100mg capsule two to three times daily.
For insomnia, take one or two 100mg capsules, 30-60 minutes before bedtime.
