New study urges research, caution when giving kids melatonin
Показать описание
Parents are routinely giving their children, preteens and sometimes even preschoolers the dietary supplement melatonin to help them sleep, shows new research from the University of Colorado Boulder.
The study was published in JAMA Pediatrics Nov. 13 and reveals nearly one in five school-aged children take melatonin for sleep. The body produces melatonin naturally in the pineal gland and it regulates your circadian rhythm, signaling you when it is time to sleep.
