Melatonin

Melatonin is a natural hormone made by the pineal gland, a small gland in the brain. It helps to control your sleep and wake cycles. During the day time it is inactive but during darkness the pineal is turned on that is why it is called "DRACULA OF HORMONES" and begins to produce melatonin actively. Then, the melatonin is released into the blood. This occurs around 9 p.m. As a result, it rises sharply and feels less alert. Levels of melatonin remain high throughout night before the light of a new day.
