Melatonin is a potent free radical scavenger naturally produced in the pineal gland and the GI tract, where it is essential for the maintenance of a healthy gastrointestinal lining. It is involved in many of the regulatory processes of the body, including the regulation of glandular secretory functions related to the maintenance of normal sleep/wake cycles and aspects of immune system function.
Melatonin’s main job in the body is to regulate night and day cycles or sleep-wake cycles. Darkness causes the body to produce more melatonin, which signals the body to prepare for sleep. Light decreases melatonin production and signals the body to prepare for being awake. Some people who have trouble sleeping have low levels of melatonin.
Melatonin is most commonly used for insomnia and improving sleep in different conditions. For example, it is used for jet lag*, for adjusting sleep-wake cycles in people whose daily work schedule changes (shift-work disorder), and for helping people establish a day and night cycle.
