Melatonin

What’s Melatonin ？

Melatonin is a hormone made by the pineal gland, a small gland in the brain. After melatonin is synthesized and stored in the pineal gland, sympathetic excitation innervates the pineal cells to release melatonin. Melatonin is commonly found in animals and has both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and can react with hydroxyl radicals and peroxyl radicals.

The function of Melatonin

One, Slowing Down Aging

Melatonin has an enzymatic reaction that promotes the production of free radicals in our body, which we all know are closely related to aging in our body and can directly affect our skin. Melatonin can protect against the damage caused by eugenol, and it has a resistance and inhibitory effect on the oxidation caused by exogenous substances. Generally, the aging of the skin is caused by the oxidation rate being too fast, and melatonin has a very strong effect in this regard.

Two, Fighting against Cancer

There have been studies showing that melatonin can play a role in fighting against cancer because it inhibits the DNA mutations caused by some carcinogens, and people with breast cancer are usually related to their circadian rhythm. Melatonin is closely related to breast cancer patients, and it can act on bone marrow T-cells to promote the production of endogenous granulocytes in our bodies, which is very effective in preventing and treating tumors and can be used as an auxiliary treatment for cancer.

Three, Improve Sleep

Melatonin can reduce the number of times we wake up during sleep, because sleep is divided into deep sleep and light sleep. Melatonin can help us reduce the time in the light sleep period and extend the duration of deep sleep. Deep sleep is the most beneficial state for us humans, and it also has the highest quality of sleep. This substance can also help us adjust our body’s time difference.
