Manufacturer’s Claim
This is a review of Mason Natural Melatonin. This product aids jet lag fatigue and promotes a restful night’s sleep.
Formula
- Vitamin B6 – 1mg
- Calcium – 54mg
- Melatonin – 5 mg
Vitamin B6 helps to regulate the body’s levels of an amino acid (tryptophan) which is necessary for maintaining restful sleep. Calcium has a calming effect on the nervous system and acts as a natural relaxant. Melatonin regulates the body’s sleep-wake cycles.
Other ingredients included in this formula are silica, vegetable magnesium stearate, croscarmellose sodium, stearic acid and microcrystalline cellulose.
We found that the following key ingredients which effectively eliminates jet lag are missing in this formula: GABA, Magnesium, L-theanine, Ashwagandha, Chamomile and L-ornithine. These ingredients should not be left out of a jet lag formula as it promotes healthy sleep patterns and relieves stress.
We have also found that jet lag products should offer both a day and nighttime formula in order for the product to really be effective. A dual action formula will help to address the mental/physical stresses during the journey, regulate the sleep/wake cycle upon arrival and calm anxiety while avoiding the foggy feeling of jet lag. Mason Natural’s formula does not offer both day and nighttime formulas.
Instructions
One tablet should be taken at bedtime. If you are traveling across time zones, it is advised to take one tablet at bedtime 3-5 days before the trip – corresponding with the bedtime of your destination.
Cost
This product can be purchased for $15.84.
Possible Side Effects
This product should not be used by pregnant/lactating women, children or teenagers. Consult with your physician before taking this product if you have diabetes, are under medical supervision, if you have a depressive disorder, an autoimmune disease, epilepsy, a thyroid condition or leukemia. This formula may further also cause drowsiness.
Guarantee
It is quite worrying that we could not find any information about the manufacturer offering any sort of money-back guarantee. This might mean that the company does not have any confidence in the effectiveness of their products.
Mason Natural Melatonin Review – The Bottom Line
After reviewing this product we came to the conclusion that it might be effective in promoting a restful night’s sleep and aiding with jet lag fatigue. We did find that there are quite a few very important ingredients missing in this formula such as Magnesium, GABA, Ashwagandha, Chamomile, L-theanine and L-ornithine. These ingredients should not be left out of jet lag formulas as they relieve stress and promote healthy sleep patterns.
Mason Naturals’ Melatonin product consists of only one formula, but we have found that dual action formulas help to address the physical/mental stresses of the journey much more effectively. Rather be on the lookout for a jet lag formula that provides you of both a day and nighttime formula in order to help regulate the sleep/wake cycles upon arrival and calming anxiety while avoiding the foggy feeling of jet lag.
It is quite worrying that the company does not offer a money-back guarantee. There are many other jet lag formulas available on the market with excellent money-back offers.
