Melatonin
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
Melatonin is a hormone released by the pineal gland as darkness falls, signaling the body toward sleep.
Show
Melatonin rises in the evening and remains high through the night, falling before habitual waking.
Watch for
Melatonin signals night, not sleepiness. It shifts timing more reliably than it produces sleep.
