{"product_id":"melaton-3™","title":"Melaton-3","description":"\u003cp\u003eThorne's Melaton-3 is NSF Certified for Sport®. Melatonin, the primary hormone of the pineal gland, is a powerful \"chronobiotic\" that helps maintain the body's normal circadian rhythms.* In individuals who have difficulty sleeping or who have altered circadian rhythms because of jet lag or night shift work, melatonin supplementation promotes the resynchronization of this cycle.* Supplementation can also benefit those whose difficulty sleeping is caused by the aging-related decrease in the body's ability to synthesize melatonin from the amino acid tryptophan.* Research indicates melatonin exerts its sleep-promoting efficacy by decreasing the amount of time needed to fall asleep, by promoting the ability to stay asleep, and by enhancing the depth of sleep.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMelatonin administration from 0.3 mg to 5.0 mg has been shown to exert a sedative-like effect.* When supplemented prior to the onset of the body's normal melatonin secretion, even a low amount of melatonin can promote sleep.* Melatonin apparently enhances the effect of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) via direct interaction with GABA receptors, thus resulting in relaxation.* Thorne's Melaton-3 supplies 3 mg of melatonin in each capsule, and is used when a higher amount of melatonin is desired. Melatonin also has significant antioxidant activity.* Adequate melatonin levels have been reported to be a positive factor in cardiovascular, neuroendocrine, GI, and bone health.*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause athletes need to know their supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of nearly 300 substances banned by many major athletic organizations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thorne","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53240102584480,"sku":null,"price":9.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/3500\/8160\/files\/Untitleddesign_10.png?v=1770566540","url":"https:\/\/alphanutritionshop.com\/products\/melaton-3%e2%84%a2","provider":"Alpha Nutrition Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
