It is a derivative of tryptophan. It occurs in our body as a hormone produced by the pineal gland. In smaller amounts, melatonin is produced by the digestive system, leukocytes and bone marrow. It is called the sleep hormone because it plays an important role in regulating sleep time as well as wakefulness throughout the day. It is responsible for the feeling of drowsiness, lowering the temperature and blood pressure during the night.
A significant problem is the sudden change of time zone syndrome, the so-called Jet-lag. The symptoms are caused by a disturbance in the biological clock. The proper functioning of the biological clock depends on the production of melatonin and cortisol. Melatonin helps in shortening the time needed to fall asleep and in relieving the subjective feeling of the sudden change of time zone syndrome. Melatonin additionally helps to reduce oxidative stress.
