Melatonin Reduction – Fall Equinox to Winter Solstice

Melatonin is Dose Dependent. Researchers and Influencers only look at the effects of Low melatonin levels.

Melatonin is the ‘‘Chemical Signal of Darkness’’.  Because the duration of melatonin production is the neurochemical signal for the annual change in night length,1Wehr TA, Duncan WC Jr, Sher L, Aeschbach D, Schwartz PJ, Turner EH, Postolache TT, Rosenthal NE. A circadian signal of change of season in patients with seasonal affective disorder. Arch Gen Psychiatry. 2001 Dec;58(12):1108-14.,2Julius Axelrod ,The Pineal Gland: A Neurochemical Transducer.Science184,1341-1348(1974). wearing Blue Blocker glasses increases the duration of the “biological night”. The Pineal Gland translates environmental light information into endocrine signals to many parts of the body via the time messenger melatonin.3Wurtman RJ, Axelrod J, Phillips Ls. (1963). Melatonin synthesis in the pineal gland; control by light. science 142: 1071-1073.

Circaidian Phase Shift due to increased Melatonin is perhaps the most common mood disturbance constantly experienced year after year during the 6 months between the Autumnal (Fall) and vernal (Spring) equinoxes at temperate latitudes, such as the northern United States and lower provinces of Canada, where there are noticeable seasonal changes in the natural length of day (photoperiod). 

Melatonin is a circadian rhythm hormone that can play a role in the immune response and the development of autoimmune diseases. While low levels of melatonin can suppress the differentiation of Th17 cells. High levels of melatonin produced from the Fall Equinox to the Winter solstice have proinflammatory effects.4Hardeland R. Melatonin and inflammation-Story of a double-edged blade. J Pineal Res. 2018 Nov;65(4):e12525.  Th17 cells are involved in the immune response to viruses, pregnancy (Morning Sickness), and high levels of melatonin play a role in the development of gastroenteritis-like symptoms.5Wang J, Li F, Wei H, Lian ZX, Sun R, Tian Z. Respiratory influenza virus infection induces intestinal immune injury via microbiota-mediated Th17 cell-dependent inflammation. J Exp Med. 2014 Nov 17;211(12):2397-410. 6Paiva IA, Badolato-CorrĂȘa J, Familiar-Macedo D, de-Oliveira-Pinto LM. Th17 Cells in Viral Infections-Friend or Foe? Cells. 2021 May 11;10(5):1159. Th17 cells produce interleukin-17 (IL-17), a proinflammatory cytokine that plays a role in autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis.
