Abstract

Sleep and melatonin are closely connected. Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced by the body, and it plays a crucial role in controlling sleep patterns. Its primary function is to maintain and synchronize the body's biological clock, influencing various biological and physiological processes. Additionally, melatonin contributes significantly to enhancing sleep quality. Among its essential roles are promoting cell renewal, bolstering the immune system, and regulating both sleep cycles and body temperature.
