The dangers of melatonin
Write the 31/03/2023 by Santarome Bio
Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the pineal gland, also called the “epiphysis”, located in the brain. Regulated by the light-dark cycle, its soporific action is its inhibitory effect on the biological clock. The secretion of this hormone is very low during the day and especially high during the night.
Melatonin can be taken in different forms, particularly in supplement form. However, like any supplement or medication, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional before considering taking melatonin.
Food supplements based on melatonin are very effective in treating sleep disorders, synchronizing circadian rhythms and reducing the effects of jet lag or even treating disorders of adaptation to light. They improve the quality of your sleep and your mood in the long term.
Santarome Bio tablets based on melatonin are a 100% natural solution for easy and quick falling asleep, reduced nighttime awakenings and optimal relaxation! Santarome Bio food supplements are also a good alternative for parents of young children, who can thus enjoy restful sleep.
Side effects of melatonin
Melatonin is much more than a simple regulator of the biological clock. It also has other physiological properties allowing it to modulate mood, strengthen the immune system, influence sexual behavior or even regulate body temperature. However, melatonin can also cause unwanted side effects.
According to a recent study by the National Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health Safety ( ANSES ), 90 cases of side effects have been reported after the use of food supplements containing melatonin. The most frequently reported symptoms are dizziness, nightmares, headaches, hormonal changes, nausea and even abdominal pain. These reactions demonstrate that the consumption of melatonin-based products must be taken with caution and closely monitored by consumers.
