Melatonin is the body’s hormone designed to regulate our circadian rhythm, the cycle that dictates when we should be awake and when we should be asleep. Even though melatonin is naturally produced in the pineal gland and found in certain founds such as cherries and walnuts, it is most commonly known as a natural health product for improved sleep.
There are many circumstances where melatonin can improve sleep parameters. Clinical trials have found that melatonin supplementation can improve total sleep time and restfulness in individuals with general sleeplessness. For people that commonly travel across time zones, melatonin can be a great way to speed up jet lag recovery and align the sleep-wake cycle to the new destination. Finally, shift workers can greatly benefit from melatonin supplementation during the harsh transition between day and night shifts.
The most interesting quality of melatonin is that it doesn’t just work on our brains or for sleep. Melatonin has some surprising benefits for digestion. For example, research has found that melatonin protects the esophageal lining from acid reflux by increasing local mucous production. This is important because acid reflux into the esophagus can create the burning sensation and cause damage to the tissue. Not only can melatonin reduce heartburn symptoms but clinical trials have also shown that it can improve gastritis and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome such as pain, abdominal distension and urgency.
Outside of digestive and sleep applications, various clinical trials have shown that melatonin can reduce symptoms of itchiness and discomfort in eczema sufferers, reduce migraine frequency, improve tinnitus and decrease endometriosis pain. Clearly, there is more to melatonin than a good night’s rest.
