Less Is More With Melatonin & The Little Known Importance of Sleep

Research is showing that the ordinary 3mg tabs of melatonin is less effective at treating insomnia. 

The recommended dose is 0.3mg, 10x less than a typical OTC melatonin tab.

I worked in a psychiatric facility, and patients were often prescribed 3mg as the small dose, and up to 9mg as the large dose. 
                   This is 10-30x the effective dose!


Studies also suggest that taking the higher dose leads to higher plasma melatonin levels during the day, making people feel less energetic.
