Melatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland in the brain, helps regulate the body's circadian rhythm, the internal clock that controls when we fall asleep and wake up. Our brain begins producing melatonin about one hour before bed. Melatonin levels increase gradually during sleep and peak one-to-two hours before we wake up, then they rapidly fall.
In some adults, a higher dose of melatonin may push this process into fast-forward, causing them to wake up early and making it difficult to fall back asleep. For these individuals, Carlson offers Melatonin with 300 mcg of melatonin in a single natural strawberry-lemon flavored chewable tablet, which is a great starting level. Increase your dose as necessary by taking more than one tablet.
Melatonin 300 mcg chewable tablets are also a safe dose for kids who are having trouble sleeping.

I use these when I travel to Europe and have trouble falling asleep because of the jet lag. The amount of melatonin is just right to help me fall asleep when I am supposed to fall asleep but feel fresh in the morning. It used to take me about 5 days to get used to a different time zone and with these melatonin tablets I am witching to the new time zone in about 2 days.
Great product! Carlson melatonin helps me get to sleep and wake up not feeling groggy. I have recommended it to other family members who also have tried it with the same results.
