Many people in America suffer from inadequate or insufficient sleep. For the adrenals to produce enough hormones to get you through your day, you need a minimum of 5 hours of uninterrupted deep sleep. This can be a challenge to most people, given that studies are indicating that few people actually achieve “deep dreamless sleep.”
Some baseline points to achieving deep sleep: Don’t eat for at least 3-4 hours before bed. No Caffeine of any kind past 2:00pm. Food in the system tells the body to be active, particularly the liver. So the body cannot drop into rest when stimulated in this way. If you have late night hunger, this is easily remediated by making a point of eating more food for breakfast and lunch. Have at least an hour of relaxation from stimulation (exciting TV or computer work) before bed.
To help we are proudly offering a Melatonin Special this month: But 3 get one free.
Understand how to use melatonin and it will benefit you greatly. Melatonin is not a knockout drug. It is a naturally occurring hormone that communicates to the body: time to sleep. If taken 30 minutes before bed, then the melatonin hormone will have time to communicate to the body and be far more effective. Melatonin is intended for establishing a normal sleep pattern. So, training your body into a rhythm is what it’s about. The body loves regularity over chaos.
Because Quantum Melatonin is pure and the highest quality available there is no morning hangover for the majority of users, sleep becomes deeper slowly and restfulness grows. Check out many more things about melatonin you may not have known.

What is Melatonin?
Melatonin is a natural hormone produced by the pineal gland located in the center of the brain. Its secretion is inhibited by light and stimulated by darkness. Therefore, melatonin production peaks at night. Research shows that the body’s natural production of melatonin decreases with age. Melatonin has received substantial publicity for its ability to promote natural sleep patterns, stimulate the immune system, decrease jet lag and its role as a powerful antioxidant.
Better Sleep. The use of melatonin to promote restful sleep is well documented. Studies of low dose, oral melatonin in healthy adult volunteers showed that time to sleep onset, stage-2 sleep, and REM sleep was decreased without affecting the percentage of time in REM sleep or alertness after waking. In addition, evidence also indicates improved sleep benefits for children as well.
Jet Lag and Travel Fatigue.
Research shows the benefit of melatonin in minimizing the desynchronization of the body’s internal “time clock” due to air travel over time zones (jet lag). Typical symptoms of jet lag can include loss of appetite, irritability, gastrointestinal concerns, disorientation, difficulties concentrating, feeling mentally “off” and sleep disorders. Even world-class athletes, who sometimes travel over time zones to compete in athletic events such as the Olympics, have been studied to determine if melatonin can benefit them. Many top athletes take melatonin regularly to reduce the tiring symptoms associated with jet lag and travel.
Is All Melatonin the Same?
Did you ever read about a wonderful nutrient, then get some from a health food store, but after taking if for a few weeks, you couldn't notice any difference? This little drama will be repeated over and over again in the coming years, since research has shown that 80% of health food store supplements do NOT meet label claims. This means that what the label says is not what is in the product (either shorted or missing).
U.S.-Made Melatonin Is "Junk" Says Chemist
The researchers who demonstrated the many incredible benefits of melatonin were supplied with high-grade, nontoxic melatonin (with no harmful solvents) made from a state-of the- art laboratory in Europe. Unfortunately, U.S.-made melatonin is "junk" according the head European chemist of the laboratory. After testing many companies, he stated that U.S. made melatonin shows characteristic peaks on HPLC graphs which reflect the impurities from toxic solvents and chemicals which were used in making the melatonin (solvents are cheap and easy to use).
Solvent-Tainted, "Junk" Melatonin
For those using impure, solvent-tainted melatonin, not only is it doubtful that they will receive the benefits of melatonin, but it may be harmful. If a melatonin product contains solvents, then it can elicit negative reactions, such as nausea, anxiety, feeling shaky, insomnia, liver toxicity, kidney damage, etc.
We know many people who used U.S.-made melatonin, but stopped after experiencing peculiar side effects.
We know of only one European source that manufactures pure, solvent-free melatonin.
It's much more expensive, but it really works. Other European sources we researched were also contaminated with solvent residues.
The New "Nanized" Melatonin
The very best source of melatonin is made using special probiotic fermentation to yield the world's first "natural-source" melatonin. It is called "nanized" melatonin. "Nano" means very, very small. "Nanized" melatonin is made via a proprietary process whereby the ingredients are "nanized" or pre-digested by natural probiotic bacteria into very, very small particles which makes it extremely bioavailable.
Use only natural-source, solvent-free melatonin - the one that was used in the research studies which delivered superior results. Don't take chances with your health; avoid solvent based melatonin. These residues are cumulative in the body and associated with increased risk of cancer and other degenerative diseases.
