Why Liposomal Melatonin?
This comprehensive formulation provides sleep supporting liposomal melatonin in a high-potency liposomal delivery system. Sleep disorders affect millions of Americans. Low levels of melatonin may be a common underlying culprit for patients with severe sleep disruptions. Providing a higher dose of melatonin in a bioavailable format may have the best effects on restoring sleep patterns. The Importance of Circadian Rhythms, our daily clock is a cycle of behavioral, physical, and mental changes that follow a 24-hour pattern. The circadian rhythm governs our eating and sleeping patterns and is a critical factor in maintaining homeostasis. Disruptions in circadian rhythm occur when there is a mismatch between the external environment and the internal clock. This disruption is linked closely to sleep disorders. New research is indicating that circadian rhythm dysfunction can cause even more severe conditions. Observations of cancer cells have suggested that an altered circadian clock can cause abnormal cellular metabolism and proliferation. The circadian clock is also necessary for controlling heart patterns and the functional organization of the cardiovascular system. Altered circadian patterns can disrupt this delicate system increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease and myocardial function. Establishing healthy sleep patterns is one of the most important ways to maintain circadian rhythm and health. Glymphatic system support and more.
What is Melatonin?
Melatonin is a potent antioxidant, and its ability to maintain healthy circadian rhythms affects cardiovascular and metabolic health. Liposomal Melatonin provides high-dose bioavailable delivery for patients with severe sleep disruption. It also includes glycine to promote relaxation and more restorative sleep. Recent research has shown that melatonin supports immune function and may help the brain detox while at sleep through the glymphatic system. (lymphatic system of the brain).Melatonin is a pleiotropic signaling molecule and hormone, primarily released during the night. While its main role is thought to be induction of sleep, melatonin has many other crucial functions in the body such as an antioxidant, detoxification agent, and controller of the circadian clock. Melatonin has both lipid and water-soluble properties, making it one of the only antioxidants that is known to protect all parts of a cell. Melatonin abnormalities have been strongly linked to mood and behavior disorders, including depression, bipolar disorder, and even psychosis. Several studies have indicated an inverse relationship between melatonin levels and growth of estrogen-receptor positive tumors. Melatonin levels decrease naturally with age, but can also be disrupted by excessive exposure to bright lights, poor diet or nutrient absorption and disruption of the pineal gland by electromagnetic fields.
What is Glycine?
Glycine is a non-essential amino acid with many roles throughout the body. Glycine acts on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors which are believed to be responsible for lowering core body temperature and reducing muscle activity during rapid eye movement sleep. Glycine may promote more restorative and restful sleep and diminish restless or racing thoughts at bedtime.
This is the paramount transport system for delicate nutrients. Liposomes are microscopic vesicles made up of phospholipids, the same structures that make up our cell membranes. These small, bubble-like complexes work to encapsulate nano-particle sized nutrients, supporting their intact delivery directly to target cells. The unique structure of the liposome allows the encapsulated nutrient to bypass the digestive tract, allowing for mega-doses of nutrients even at moderate intake. See the blog on Liposomal.
