    FYI, every melatonin supplement is way too high of a dose and is completely saturating your melatonin receptors, leading to tolerance and dependency.

    Your body is not producing more than .5mg of melatonin naturally, so taking a 5mg supplement is far too much. And they sell 15-20mg too. If you can find 1mg that’s best; but what’s even better in the long run is not using it!

      I know it’s said over and over and over, but regular exercise!! There are certain types and times of exercise that are more effective, but generally speaking, exercise promotes serotonin conversion to melatonin and makes sleepy time easier.
