Thyrotonin

Melatonin is the body’s own sleep aid. It is a hormone that triggers sleep onset. Melatonin supplements may work because they contain the same molecule the body produces. However, the amounts found in supplements are so great that they may reduce how much the body makes on its own. 

Many studies show that micro-dose melatonin is more effective and safer. In small amounts, melatonin is able to work with the body’s own melatonin without reducing it. 

This issue becomes more pronounced in adults over 40. In fact, older adults may show the strongest response to melatonin doses in the range of 100 – 200 mcg.⁸  Yet most commercial melatonin products range in potency from 1 – 5 mg. 

Melatonin is also made by the thyroid gland. Low doses of it may improve thyroid function whereas mega-doses may worsen autoimmune thyroid disease.

Thyrotonin is a micro-dose immediate release melatonin supplement. It contains the most effective doses to improve sleep onset. You can learn more and buy it here
