The sublingual spray provides optimal efficacy, enabling the melatonin to be absorbed faster and better than with oral administration, as the active principles go straight into the bloodstream without being digested. It also allows a timed release effect , with its effects lasting several hours, particularly helpful for those who tend to wake in the night or early hours.
1) Review your lifestyle, taking care to avoid frequent changes to your sleep routine, excessive alcohol consumption and smoking, as well as the use of electronic devices in bed (mobile phones, laptops, tablets …) Establish a calming ritual before going to sleep such as listening to soft music (2), reading, or doing yoga or breathing exercises.
2) Restrict intense visual, physical, auditory or mental stimulation in the two hours before bed.
3) Eat dinner at least two hours before going to bed, prioritising foods rich in tryptophan, an amino acid involved in melatonin production which encourages drowsiness. The best sources are seeds, wholegrain rice, dairy products, eggs, pulses, chocolate and brewer’s yeast.
Toxicology researchers investigating a range of different doses (from 1mg to 300mg), have found no particular adverse effects associated with moderate treatment durations (3).
Note: melatonin is less effective at inducing sleep in those who are stressed, who brood over the day’s events, or who are suffering from pain of various kinds. Where this kind of common issue is responsible for sleep problems, it is better to turn to other supplements such as Natural Sleep Formula.
If you’re suffering from a serious disease, you should only use melatonin under medical supervision. Care should also be taken if you’re taking certain drugs: fluvoxamine, anticoagulants and beta-blockers.
It is also essential to avoid driving, or using any potentially dangerous machinery, in the five hours after you take the supplement.
Each spray delivers around 1mg of melatonin combined with 1.5mg of vitamin B6. The dose can be easily adapted, depending on your size/build, and especially on how you feel when you wake up: if, after taking it, you find it difficult to wake up in the morning, the dose is a little too high. If, on the other hand, you are still not getting sufficient sleep, you can increase the dose.
It’s best to use the spray half an hour before going to bed. Melatonin receptors are generally more sensitive around 7.00-8.00pm (1).
