Insomnia is a fairly common condition, but it does not usually last for long.

Melatonin is a hormone that occurs naturally in the body and is associated with the control of the body’s sleep pattern. As we grow older the amount of naturally occurring melatonin in the body reduces. Taking melatonin adds to the body’s natural supply and helps to promote and improve the quality of sleep.
