Slaapproblemen? Auteurs: Marcel Smits en Wiebe Braam Uitgever: Poiesz Uitgevers, Serie Spreekuur Thuis ISBN 9789066112292 Momenteel alleen tweedehands leverbaar (o.a. www.bol.com) Slaapproblemen komen voor bij mensen van alle leeftijden: kinderen, jongvolwassenen, senioren en hoogbejaarden. Stoornissen in het slaap-waakritme ontstaan als de biologische klok en de leefwijze niet goed op elkaar zijn afgestemd. Als gevolg hiervan kunnen allerlei klachten op het gebied van gezondheid en dagelijks functioneren ontstaan. Vaak wordt niet onderkend dat die gezondheidsklachten worden veroorzaakt door het niet goed functioneren van de biologische klok. Daardoor worden deze klachten zelden goed behandeld. Dit boek geeft inzicht hoe de biologische klok het dagelijks functioneren beïnvloedt. Het legt uit welke, meestal miskende, klachten het gevolg kunnen zijn en hoe melatonine, licht en leefwijze de biologische klok beter kunnen afstellen.

Te trage afbraak van melatonine

Te trage afbraak van melatonine kan worden vastgesteld door ’s morgens een lage dosis melatonine in te nemen en zes uur later speeksel af te nemen om de melatoninespiegel te bepalen. Bij een normale afbraak is van het ingenomen tabletje (bijna) niets meer te vinden. Bij te trage afbraak is de melatoninespiegel na zes uur echter nog zeer hoog.

Ochtend- en avondmensen

De blauwe lijn is het normale verloop, de rode lijn is van een ochtendmens en de groene lijn is van een avondmens.

24-uurs melatoninespiegel

Zo verloopt de melatoninespiegel over 24 uur. Tussen 18.00 en 24.00 uur begint de aanmaak van melatonine. De piek ligt rond 2.00 uur en om 7.00 uur stopt de aanmaak.

Afbraak van melatonine

Te trage afbraak van melatonine kan worden vastgesteld door ’s morgens een lage dosis melatonine in te nemen en zes uur later speeksel af te nemen om de melatoninespiegel te bepalen. Bij een normale afbraak is van het ingenomen tabletje (bijna) niets meer te vinden. Bij te trage afbraak is de melatoninespiegel na zes uur echter nog zeer hoog.

Behandeling van kanker

Veelbelovend is de proef waarin melatonine werd toegevoegd aan een conventionele behandeling met antikankermedicijnen en bestraling. Melatonine maakt de gevoeligheid van kankercellen voor deze behandelingen groter. Dit lijkt zelfs het geval te zijn voor kankercellen die ongevoelig zijn (geworden) voor chemotherapie en radiotherapie.
