Melatonin Test

Test your melatonin levels over a say to understand your circadian rhythm cycle and get to the root cause of any sleep disorders.

The Melatonin Test is a convenient, non-invasive saliva test that analyses the circadian secretion patterns of melatonin over a complete light-dark cycle. This Melatonin test can reveal abnormal levels of melatonin that relate to various physical and psychological symptoms as well as premature acceleration of the body’s ageing process.

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a hormone that controls the daily circadian rhythm and is best known for its role in helping to initiate sleep.

It is synthesised within the pineal gland from tryptophan during the night. With its unique ability to pass through all blood barriers in the body, melatonin acts as the central hub of physiological function.

Its role is to:

• Orchestrate the complex interactions between the mind, body and environment

• Influence most of the autonomic, hormonal and behavioural functions of the human organism

• Advance sleep time and duration

• Modulate annual and circadian biorhythms (hence its ability to reduce symptoms of jet lag)

• Regulate body temperature

• Regulate cardiovascular function

• Regulate immune function, with a possible role in fighting cancer

• Act as an antioxidant

• Regulate female reproductive hormones

Melatonin’s synthesis and secretion can be strongly influenced by day length, artificial illumination, electromagnetic energy, exercise, seasonal changes, impairment in methionine metabolism and ageing. Since synthesis and secretion are easily disrupted, accurate assessment of levels and circadian rhythm is critical.
