Now Foods Melatonin 5mg Sustained Release 120 Tablets - 3554

Melatonin 5mg sustained release tablets work like a gentle nighttime bouncer for your brain (you know, the kind that doesn't throw you out, just helps you find the exit to Dreamland).* This isn't your regular melatonin that hits you like a brick and then disappears faster than Tracy Morgan at a salad bar.

Why Sustained Release Makes All the Difference

Regular melatonin is like that friend who shows up to the party early and leaves before the good stuff happens. Sustained release melatonin supports your natural sleep cycle by releasing gradually throughout the night, helping maintain restful sleep patterns.* It's like having a sleep assistant that actually knows what they're doing (which is more than I can say for most assistants).

Each tablet contains 5mg of melatonin in a special sustained release formula that may support your body's natural sleep-wake cycle.* I used to think sustained release was just fancy talk for "costs more money," but turns out it actually means something. Who knew?

What This Sleep Support Does*

• Supports natural sleep patterns and restful sleep*
• May help maintain healthy circadian rhythms*
• Promotes relaxation and helps ease occasional sleeplessness*
• Supports the body's natural production of melatonin*
• Helps maintain sleep quality throughout the night*

Now Foods has been making supplements since before I knew what melatonin was (I thought it was something you put on toast). With 120 tablets per bottle, you're looking at four months of sleep support, assuming you don't accidentally take them during your morning coffee routine like I did once.* That was a confusing Tuesday.

The Science Behind Better Sleep

Melatonin is naturally produced by your pineal gland, which sounds like a made-up body part but is actually real. This hormone helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle, and sometimes your body needs a little extra support maintaining healthy melatonin levels.* The sustained release formula helps maintain consistent levels throughout the night, supporting deeper, more restful sleep.*

Take one tablet 30-60 minutes before bedtime, preferably on an empty stomach (though let's be honest, if you're like me, "empty stomach" is more of a suggestion than a rule). Start with the lowest effective dose and adjust as needed, because everyone's sleep needs are different, like fingerprints but less useful for solving crimes.

This melatonin supplement supports your natural sleep cycle without the grogginess that comes with other sleep aids.* It's like getting a good night's sleep without having to explain to anyone why you're wearing pajamas at 2 PM the next day.
