Roughly 50–70 million Americans are affected by poor sleep. In fact, according to some studies, up to 30% of adults in the United States report that they sleep for less than 6 hours each night.

Poor sleep can deplete your energy, lower your productivity, and increase the risk of diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes

Melatonin is a hormone that tells your body when it’s time to head to bed. It is a natural hormone and is synthesized mainly by the pineal gland located in the brain. Your body likely produces enough melatonin for its general needs. However, evidence suggests that melatonin promotes sleep and is safe for short-term use. Melatonin can be used to treat delayed sleep phase and circadian rhythm sleep disorders in the blind and provide some insomnia relief.

Melatonin levels rise about two hours before sleep or scheduled bedtime. You should create optimal conditions for it to do its job by keeping the lights low before bed. Stop using your computer, smartphone or tablet—the blue and green light from these devices can neutralize melatonin’s effects. If you watch television, be sure you’re at least six feet away from the screen. Turn off bright overhead lights too. You can help program your body to produce melatonin for sleep at the right time of day by getting exposure to daylight during the morning and afternoon. Take a walk outside or sit beside a window with light coming in.

Even sound sleepers have trouble falling asleep or staying asleep once in a while. You may want to try melatonin for sleep if you have difficulty for more than a night or two. Research shows that a supplement may help people with insomnia fall asleep slightly faster and may have bigger benefits for those with delayed sleep phase syndrome—falling asleep very late and waking up late the next day.

Melatonin can also reduce symptoms of season depression and even provide relief from acid reflux. Here are a few other benefits:

• support eye health
• reduce symptoms of season depression
• provide relief from acid reflux
• treat stomach ulcers and heartburn
• ease tinnitus symptoms
• raise growth hormone levels in men

If you’d like to try melatonin, start with a lower dose supplement.

For instance, start with 0.5 mg (500 micrograms) or 1 mg 30 minutes before going to bed. If that doesn’t seem to help you fall asleep, try increasing your dose to 3–5 mg.
