Pharma Nord Bio melatonin complex 290mcgBio-Melatonin Complex is a food supplement containing 0.29 mg of the active substance melatonin per lozenge. It also contains 10 mg of niacin. Melatonin should always be taken before going to sleep.
Using a lozenge prevents the so-called portal vein effect, which occurs with swallowed melatonin tablets. This effect causes 90% of ingested melatonin to leave the body unused. With a lozenge, the melatonin is absorbed through the oral mucous membranes, preventing the portal vein effect. This ensures a 10x better absorption of melatonin. The dosage of 0.29 mg thus provides comparable absorption to 2.9 mg of melatonin.
Bio-Melatonin Complex also contains 10 mg of niacin. In the body's natural production of melatonin, the substance L-tryptophan is used as a raw material. The same substance is also a raw material for the production of niacin. By adding 10 mg of niacin, 600 mg of L-tryptophan is saved for the body's own production of melatonin.
Meets pharmaceutical guidelines for production and EU regulations for food supplements.
