The pineal gland in the brain produces melatonin at night during sleep. Seratonin is produced during the day, These two hormones maintain the Circadian Rhythms or our '24 hr' clock.

If the body clock is upset, as in jet lag, sleeping is difficult.

How does the circadian rhythm affect the production of melatonin in the body?

The circadian rhythm, which is the body's internal clock, regulates the production of melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that helps control sleep-wake cycles.

Does melatonin make you sleep?

Melatonin helps somewhat, but for more severe sleep issues, it really doesn't cut it. As you age, melatonin production diminishes, so supplementing does help. I have read that taking it consistently can alter your brain's own ability to produce melatonin, but that has been proven in some studies, debunked in others. This contains some melatonin but also several other sleep inducing ingredients. h t t p s: //bit. ly/ 2KlhRCQ. Copy and paste the link and take out the spaces. It works really well.
