How to better use the melatonin prepared by your body to improve sleep

Melatonin is often called the sleep hormone. The production of melatonin is influenced by light exposure; darkness stimulates its release, while light inhibits it. Melatonin helps coordinate the timing of various bodily functions. For instance, A 2017 study shows that melatonin helps synchronise both the central clock in the brain and peripheral clocks in organs like the adrenal gland, pancreas, liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, fat, and gut.
