My body is sensitive to anything I put in it. Recently I took melatonin to sleep, about 6 mg. Apparently way too much for me. I was so drowsy the entire next day and my heart was beating fast.

So @ 1:24 it shows the drug companies that this news station suggests you buy from as a reputable source for the supplement. While at the same time using scare tactics to move consumers away from other independent suppliers. Considering that corporate America owns vast news networks, and buys time for comercial based broadcasting of news stories. This seems like a pretty shady story. What news group would run this story, unless new breakthroughs were found through scientific research?

@accountanonymous6967 3 года назад

I take 1.5 mg to 3mg 4-5 days a week. It really helps me sleep. You guys should start with very low doses from 0.5 and see what works. And about side effects. Yes it sometimes does make u feel sleepy next day but that is because of high doses like 5-10mg or more. Also take it at around 8pm if u sleep at 10pm. If u take it at like 11.30pm or mid night it surely with be in your bloodstream till afternoon thus u can feel dizzy.

Just 1mg does wonders for me, considering how screwed up my sleep schedule is (basically there is none, I exist outside of time measurements)

I have short periods when I struggle to fall asleep, then I’d take melatonin. I found that gummies work the best, with up to 5mg dose (190lbs male). I once bought pills 10 mg from a popular brand mixed with short and long release, they make me feel horrible the next day. Drowsy, dizzy, sleepy, anxious, plus a horrible headache. Every single time so that must be caused by those pills. Be careful folks, titration is key, get to know the brand, melatonin is different from every manufacturer despite what they say.

@weasel1822 3 года назад

Melatonin makes me manic as all Hell. I’ll take it, get really tired, then fall asleep, but then I wake up every hour or so and my anxiety sky rockets and I get all jittery. This video explains so much.

I cannot take melatonin anymore. It triggers asthma attacks. Its Extremely bizarre I have super mild asthma. I run 5 miles on the treadmill 5 days a week lift weights never have issues. I go home take a melatonin to go to bed a half hour later I'm hacking up a lung for 5 hours straight.
