Melatonin: More Than a Sleep Aid

Melatonin is an incredible supplement for insomnia and sleep disorders of all kinds. But that’s not all it helps with. This hormone helps your neurotransmitters and glial cells, which can benefit someone living with Mental health struggles such as depression, anxiety, bi polar, depersonalization, OCD, plus unexplained deep sadness, feelings of being lost, foggy brain, forgetfulness, panic attacks, nervousness, mild fatigue and more. Melatonin can also stop the brain from shrinking and atrophying and can help reduce tumors and cysts and help prevent them from growing in the first place.

Melatonin is a natural anti-inflammatory that strengthens the immune system, including the liver’s personalized immune system. If the liver is sluggish and stagnant and loses its ability to create melatonin, taking supplemental melatonin can reignite the liver’s capacity to start up again. That’s right: while medical research and science associate melatonin production with the brain, it’s also one of the liver’s hormone functions to create and secrete it.

Melatonin can also act as a powerful antioxidant when taken at the same time as you eat foods that are high in antioxidants such as wild blueberries, raspberries, leafy greens, apples, sweet potato or cherries just to name a few. This combination of Melatonin and antioxidant rich foods can help stop oxidation of toxic heavy metals in the brain and helps protect the brain from Alzheimer’s, dementia, and brain tumors. The nutrients in these foods also bind onto the melatonin and make it more easily accepted by the brain and body and enhancing its medicinal sleep effects and ability to help with stress relief.

With the levels of stress so many are under and chronic illness growing exponentially with neurological problems being at the forefront, we are truly lucky there are safeguards such as melatonin at our fingertips.
