A regular bedtime is
nearly as important as the quantity of sleep, but the latter is
crucial. From age 1 year up to about 6, a child should have 10 to 12
hours of sleep at night, with a nap during the day of 1 to 1 1/2
hours. From ages 6 to 10, 9 or 10 hours are appropriate. At least 9
or 91/2 hours are needed by children 11 through 14. However, by age
13, teens are only averaging 81/2 hours. For ages 15 to 17, 81/2
hours is a minimum, but by age 17 the average teen is only getting
7.3 hours.
Make sure that
children get to bed at an appropriate time. If you are
feeling guilty for not spending enough time with your child,
do what you can to rearrange your schedule to be available
during the child's proper waking hours. In any case, get
over any guilt about the situation. Establish a bedtime
routine for younger children: a bath, a short book, and
bedtime at 8 or 8:30 pm with no variance.
Difficulties
that need attention in regard to children's sleep are:
resistance to going to bed or getting to sleep; early
rising; awakenings during the night without returning to
sleep easily; and snoring, which is often a sign of sleep
apnea (temporary breath stoppage causing oxygen deficiency).
Some of the
problems arising from sleep deprivation in children include:
depression, moodiness, crankiness, hyperactivity,
aggressiveness, attention and memory problems, and poor
performance in school that can continue until adulthood.
37% of teenagers have sleep deprivation problems,
as do many adults.

Melatonin
Benefits
• Helps promote the body's natural sleep rhythm.
• Helps you feel more alert and rested after a night's
sleep.
• May help fight jet lag.
• Possesses antioxidant properties and many benefit the
immune system.
Melatonin ExtraŽ—3 mg is an exclusive
formula containing melatonin, a natural compound produced by
the pineal gland (located in the center of the brain).
Melatonin is vitally important to health when you consider
three factors: aging, energy and sleep. As people age they
produce less melatonin.
Melatonin can help restore the body’s natural sleep
rhythm. Used as directed, it may help you feel more
alert and satisfied after a full night of rest. In addition,
mounting evidence shows that melatonin acts as a powerful
antioxidant, meaning it may benefit the body’s immune
system.
Each capsule of Melatonin Extra contains 3 mg of melatonin (derived
from non-bovine sources), combined with Ginkgo
biloba concentrate (standardized to 24 percent glycosides),
Ginkgo biloba leaves (may aid circulation to the brain),
eleuthero (a famous adaptogen known to have a calming effect
on the nervous system) and 30 IU (100 percent Daily Value)
of vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol).
CAUTION: Melatonin should not be taken during the
day; it may cause drowsiness.
Recommended
Usage for Adults: Take 1 capsule 30 minutes prior to
bedtime.
