Melo-Moringa
Most of us were intrigued when melatonin became known as a “natural sleep aid” for insomnia. Yet, many tablet and liquid forms gave mixed results.
Recent studies suggest that high-dose, pure powder melatonin (in a veggie capsule) can offer more reliable support for healthy sleep patterns.*
As we age, melatonin production declines, which can contribute to insomnia. Evening exposure to LED and fluorescent lights may further disrupt natural melatonin signals. When you travel across time zones, jet lag can occur.
Pure melatonin powder—taken at the right time—helps re-establish healthy sleep patterns, reduce time to fall asleep, and promote restorative rest.*
Here are some of the main benefits of Melo-Moringa:
- Supports normal immune function (immunomodulation)*
- Supports healthy immune defenses against common seasonal challenges*
- Supports normal cardiovascular function and healthy blood pressure*
- Supports normal oxidative balance and healthy cellular aging*
- Supports normal neural function, since melatonin crosses into the central nervous system*
- Supports women’s wellness during menopause*
- Helps maintain cellular resilience to environmental stressors*
- Supports healthy eye function*
Melatonin & the Brain:
Few substances cross the blood–brain barrier, but melatonin can—supporting normal brain signaling.*
At recommended doses, melatonin does not appear to disrupt other hormonal pathways.*
Is High Dose Melatonin Dangerous?
A Medscape report found that even 800 mg/kg body weight was non-fatal, and humans given 1–6.5 g/day for 30–45 days showed no harmful effects when monitored under clinical conditions.*
Some side-effect reports stem from low-quality tablets or liquids with additives. Pure melatonin powder formulations may minimize unwanted effects.*
Precautions
- Consult your healthcare professional before use—especially if pregnant, nursing, on medication, or managing health conditions.
- Not recommended for infants or those with known melatonin sensitivity.
- Possible mild, temporary effects: headache, dizziness, daytime sleepiness; usually dose-related.*
- Drug interactions: Melatonin may affect certain medications; please check with your provider.
