Sustained-Release Support for Sleep Maintenance and Continuity
Pure Encapsulations Melatonin-SR is a professional-grade, extended-release formula designed specifically for individuals who have difficulty staying asleep throughout the night. While standard melatonin (immediate-release) is excellent for helping you fall asleep, it has a short half-life and often clears the system within 1–2 hours. Melatonin-SR utilizes a patented MicroActive® delivery system to release melatonin gradually over a 6-hour period, mimicking the body's natural nocturnal hormone curve.
This "SR" (Sustained Release) version is ideal for those who experience the "2 AM wake-up call"—a common issue where the initial dose of melatonin wears off, leaving the body alert in the middle of the night. By providing a steady stream of melatonin, this formula helps maintain a deeper, more consistent sleep cycle and supports the body’s circadian rhythm from dusk until dawn.
Key Benefits
-
Stay-Asleep Support: Specifically targets sleep maintenance by releasing melatonin slowly, helping to prevent middle-of-the-night awakenings.
-
MicroActive® Technology: Features a specialized delivery system that ensures a consistent release and high bioavailability, ensuring the hormone is absorbed efficiently over several hours.
-
Circadian Rhythm Alignment: Closely mimics the natural 6-to-8-hour production cycle of the pineal gland, supporting the body's internal biological clock.
-
Metabolic & Antioxidant Support: Emerging research in 2026 suggests that sustained-release melatonin may support healthy glucose metabolism by ensuring a more restful, rhythmic night, which helps manage cortisol levels.
