Theratonin® Melatonin Supplement

Melatonin is a hormone and antioxidant secreted by the pineal gland in the brain. Melatonin regulates sleep-wake cycles, also known as circadian rhythm. Studies show that melatonin may help people fall asleep faster and support healthy sleep quality.*

Theratonin is independently tested and certified by NSF® International for content accuracy and purity. That means that what’s on the supplement facts label matches what’s in the product – nothing more, nothing less. You can sleep peacefully knowing that each tablet of Theratonin provides an accurate, reliable dose of melatonin.

That’s important because multiple recent studies have found that melatonin supplements are commonly mislabeled. One recent study tested 30 melatonin supplements and discovered that over 71% of the melatonin supplements didn’t contain the dose of melatonin listed on their supplement facts panel. The actual melatonin content of these supplements ranged from 83% below to 478% above the labeled dose. Plus, 26% of the tested melatonin supplements were contaminated with serotonin, a potent neurotransmitter.

Anyone seeking sleep support may benefit from Theratonin.*

Women undergoing fertility treatments with ovarian stimulation may also benefit from Theratonin to support healthy egg quality.* Women taking Theratonin while trying to conceive should also take a preconception prenatal supplement, like TheraNatal® Core or OvaVite®.

If you’re taking Theratonin for female fertility, take for at least 6 weeks prior to egg retrieval. Stop taking Theratonin after embryo transfer.

If you’re taking Theratonin to support sleep, doses of up to 8 mg of melatonin have been used safely for up to 6 months. Consult with your healthcare provider to find out how long you should take Theratonin.

Take Theratonin 30-60 minutes before bed. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery for at least 4-5 hours after taking Theratonin.

Because melatonin is a neurohormone involved in sleep regulation, melatonin may cause dizziness in some individuals.
