The 2002 Canadian Community Health Survey revealed that approximately 1 in 7 adults have difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. Insomnia affects one in three seniors and is 40% more common in women. Changes in sleep patterns are largely a reflection of our circadian rhythms, which are guided by the pineal hormone, melatonin. Melatonin is known to decrease with age, accounting for some of the sleep changes observed throughout life. In addition, jet lag and shift work can significantly disrupt circadian rhythms and therefore melatonin secretion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMelatonin has been found to be clinically beneficial in inducing sleep or adjusting sleep cycles, reducing sleep onset latency, and improving perceived sleep quality, without impairing daytime psychomotor performance. In fact, melatonin supplementation and light therapy are considered standard medical treatment for cases of jet lag, shift work, age-related insomnia, delayed sleep phase disorder, advanced sleep phase disorder, and 24-hour sleep-wake disorder. Chronic sleep disturbances are a risk factor for premature aging, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, and certain cancers, demonstrating how important it is to maintain normal melatonin levels for improved sleep quality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unytii - Suppléments et Produits Naturels","offers":[{"title":"180 Comprimés Sublinguals","offer_id":45076188889141,"sku":"80036635","price":45.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/4865\/3365\/files\/jx1k1qs4f1kyhof0dsuz_91755f52-9f90-4761-adad-d6a15b0bd125.webp?v=1783668928","url":"https:\/\/www.ocanova.ca\/products\/melatonin-10-mg","provider":"Ocanova Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
