Melatonin Protocol
Uses melatonin, a hormone best known for regulating sleep, for its powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory properties, often at higher-than-sleep doses.
Overview
While melatonin regulates sleep, it's also a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant that's been around for over 3 billion years, originally developing in ancient bacteria. Your body makes melatonin not just in your brain, but in massive amounts throughout your gastrointestinal tissues - your gut actually contains 10-100 times more melatonin than your blood, and produces at least 400 times more than your pineal gland. This uncommonly effective antioxidant works inside nearly every cell, especially in the mitochondria where your cells make energy. Your gut is a major extrapineal source of melatonin production, adding significantly to your blood levels during the day. The melatonin you buy as a supplement is chemically identical to what your body makes naturally.
Key Benefits
Works as an immune buffer - boosting your immune system when it's weak or calming it down when it's overactive. Preserves mitochondrial integrity by neutralising harmful molecules that damage your cellular powerhouses and helps your cells produce energy more efficiently. Provides direct antioxidant protection by directly fighting free radicals and boosting your body's own antioxidant systems. Regulates your sleep-wake cycle and supports immune function as you age. Use pharmaceutical-grade melatonin at the right dose for your needs and timing to get maximum benefits while avoiding side effects.
