Sleep and the immune system are closely related. Meletonin is a natural hormone produced by the pineal gland, a pea-sized gland located in the center of the brain. The circadian rhythm of melatonin production and release, characterized by increased nocturnal secretion and decreased daytime secretion, is an important time signal for the body. So, sleeping early and on time, making sure to sleep for 6-8 hours a day for the body to secrete enough melatonin is very necessary. Because meletonin helps sleep better and deeper, regulates circadian rhythms in humans and animals.

During sleep, the body releases cytokines - proteins that help the body defend itself against infection, inflammation, and stress.
