1. Adjust the circadian rhythm
Melatonin is a hormone in the body that induces natural sleep. It overcomes sleep disorders and improves sleep quality by regulating people's natural sleep. The biggest difference between it and other sleeping pills is that melatonin is not addictive and has no obvious side effects. Take 1-2 tablets (about 1.5-3mg of melatonin) before going to bed at night, usually within 20 to 30 minutes, melatonin will automatically lose its efficacy, and there will be no fatigue or sleepiness after waking up in the morning. But the feeling of coming.
2. Delay aging
The pineal gland of the elderly gradually shrinks, and the secretion of melatonin decreases accordingly. The amount of melatonin required by various organs in the body is insufficient, leading to aging and diseases.
3. Regulatory effects on the central nervous system
As an endogenous neuroendocrine hormone, melatonin has a direct and indirect physiological regulation effect on the central nervous system, has a therapeutic effect on sleep disorders, depression and mental illness, and has a protective effect on nerve cells. For example, melatonin has a calming effect, can also treat depression and psychosis, can protect nerves, can relieve pain, regulate the hormones released by the hypothalamus, and so on.
4. Regulating the immune system
Neuroendocrine and immune systems are interrelated. The immune system and its products can change the function of neuroendocrine. The neuroendocrine signal also affects the internal sputum immunity function. In the past ten years, the regulation of melatonin on the immune system has attracted widespread attention. Studies at home and abroad have shown that it not only affects the growth and development of immune organs, but also regulates body and cellular immunity, as well as cytokines. For example, melatonin can regulate cellular immunity and humoral immunity, as well as the activity of a variety of cytokines.
