Melatonin ~ Melatonin is produced naturally in our bodies, and is considered nature's miracle sleep aid. Melatonin provides wonderful sleep without harmful side effects or addiction from synthetic drugs. As we age, the ability to synthesize melatonin decreases, allowing sleep patterns to change. Melatonin also relieves anxiety, improves mood, and increases daytime energy.

DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) ~ DHEA also called the Mother Hormone, is produced by the adrenal glands in the adrenal cortex, testes and ovaries. It is the most abundant steroid in the bloodstream and is present at even higher levels in brain tissue. DHEA is a metabolic intermediate in the pathway for the synthesis of testosterone and estrogen. Kidney functions may be favorably influenced by daily intake of DHEA. DHEA Supplementation may help to prevent a negative nitrogen balance and the loss of lean body mass frequently associated with the aging process.
