Dr. Feb's Analysis

Scientific Mechanism

The primary active ingredient, Melatonin, functions as a neurohormone produced by the pineal gland. At a cellular level, it binds to MT1 and MT2 receptors in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the brain. This binding inhibits neuronal firing, effectively signaling the body that it is time to rest. By modulating the circadian rhythm, Melatonin reduces sleep onset latency, helping children transition from wakefulness to sleep more efficiently than placebo.

Key Benefits

Key benefits include:

  • Promotes faster sleep onset (reduced time to fall asleep)
  • Supports regulation of the body's natural sleep-wake cycle
  • Provides a low-dose (1 mg) option suitable for pediatric sensitivity
  • Utilizes a palatable milk chocolate delivery system

Usage & Safety

Dosage: The standard serving is 1 piece (3.5g), containing 1 mg of Melatonin. Do not exceed this dosage unless directed by a healthcare provider. Timing: Administer 30 to 60 minutes before the desired bedtime. Safety: Consult a pediatrician if the child is taking other medications or has existing medical conditions. This product contains Milk, Soy, and may contain Peanut, Tree Nuts, and Wheat. Keep out of reach of children to prevent accidental overconsumption.
