Second, melatonin causes the body's core body temperature to lower slightly, making it easier to fall asleep.[137] The exact mechanism of this effect is still unknown. Yet, researchers speculate it is due to melatonin interacting with the brain's thermoregulatory center: the hypothalamus.[138]

Third, melatonin stimulates the pancreas to produce insulin.[139] Insulin regulates the body's blood sugar level, which improves sleep.[140]

Melatonin’s Clinical Indications for Sleep

Studies suggest melatonin contributes to sleep improvement in three different ways. First, it helps us fall asleep faster. In one 1994 study, researchers dosed subjects, patients suffering from insomnia, with melatonin or a placebo. Compared to the placebo group, the melatonin group slept sooner and longer. Moreover, they felt more alert during the daytime.[141]
