Product Description
Melatonin is a metabolic hormone made in the pineal gland, retina, and intestines. Melatonin is released into the blood stream by the pineal gland (which resides in the brain) to set your bodys biological clock and initiate sleep. Darkness stimulates the pineal gland and causes it to produce more melatonin. Day light stops your bodys production of melatonin. Melatonin helps to promote healthy sleep patterns.* Melatonin also protects cells from free radical damage, and directs the release of growth and sex hormones.* Vitamin B6 plays an important role in brain chemistry and nervous system function.* *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

I’ve tried other melatonin products , but this works best for me. Just be sure to let it completely melt in your mouth and be ready to go to sleep. It works fast!

I’d complained that I was getting to sleep easily but wasn’t staying asleep and a friend recommended Melatonin. I tried this combo (got it at the natural foods dept of my local Fred Meyer store) and was pleasantly surprised at how it worked.
The instructions say take 1 at bedtime. These aren’t supposed to make me sleepy – they’re supposed to keep me asleep. And they work. I’ve been sleeping a bit longer, deeper. Don’t feel groggy in the morning at all.
Nice product!
Schiff Melatonin Plus 3 mg Melatonin with 25 mg Theanine – For Stress Relief and a Sounder Sleep – 300 Tablets
This is my personal favorite Melatonin. It seems to work for me better than any other melatonin product that I’ve tried. Must be the L-Theanine that it has. I let it melt in my mouth for faster results. You have to be really ready to go asleep, say like in 30 minutes or less. It doesn’t leave you groggy in the mourning if you take it this way. Just a quicker more restful sleep. It’s available at Sam’s Club, also. It , also helps to take with 100mg of 5-HTP.
