Is Melatonin the Secret to a Good Night's Sleep?

[jdm0715]

I take melatonin every night. I don't think it's ever given me strange dreams, but then again, I wouldn't be able to differientiate between a normal dream and a weird one, because as I said, I take them every night, and dreams differ. But I love it. I think it works better for me than sleepaids, like unisom. It's a relaxing sleep too. It doesn't knock you out, it just kind of gradually sets you into this nice, sleep mode.

[grettagrids]

I don't dream at all on melatonin.. but I do sleep VERY well with no disturbing dreams either:) I wish I had tried this earlier for my delayed sleep phase syndrome.

[chizzledMusclez]

doesn't melatonin strip the body from its natural functions, such as producing this hormone and later on no longer being able to produce it?

[360waviebaby]

Lmao these comments are hurting my stomach...its 9am and I'm thinking about going to cvs to get some right now. I haven't slept right in four days!

[HawK047]

I have autism spectrum syndrome, and I dont know if its the cause, but as long as I can remember I have sleeping difficulties. Melatonin is my saviour and I love the stuff for it. However, I'm still not sure about the effects of the stuff because surely, there has to be a downside to it apart from my body adjusting to it (in which I'm making sure I dont use melatonin to often).

[HipHopMafiaGang]

I love dreaming on melatonin. They are totally lucid! I also use melatonin as a workout supplement.

[TheGoldenPigs]

My dreams are weird when I take it. Also, when I watch tv while dosing off, my brain will try to recreate the tv show scene by using the audible dialogue from the show.

[ImminentDeparture]

very informative video

[dayv619]

ive had weird dreams too ... the last one was that the toilet clogged up

[Tapmonk]

it works, the sleep is great ou get from it

[tango280581]

Been using this for two years now and in all honesty its like a miracle. Never slept this well but my dreams are crazy.

[cyberwaffles]

man i've had some crazy vivi dreams before, but last night was extremely realistic. i knew i was dreaming but my perception of everything was as though i was wide awake. i was flying in a sky until i woke up. taking melatonin again for another lucid dream.

[justvisiting1979]

I have been taking melatonin for a couple of years...It doesn't have any physical side effects yet....The only thing i have noticed is that you do build a tolerance to it so i notice it works better if you don't take it every night...It is has a sutle effect, just helps me get to bed at night..I guess the dreams are alittle more pronounced but i haven't noticed a big differance....

[denverwani]

Mercola's melatonin works great with me

[blackmamba5000]

the first time i tried this i had a dream that i was flying all over the city...in the morning i felt great...i had the hardest morning wood i had ever...so i had the best sleep, and my girl had the best wake up!

[SuperOzzilla]

Oh, you'll sleep alright, just make sure you have a clear conscience. I had the worst, most realistic nightmare ever.

[killuminati63]

meh all the comments are blah. i tried it and coming from takign three sleeping pills each night mel is not what i expected :(

[jackinla8]

I used to be the very worst insomniac, tried everything, but to no avail.

Then I discovered Melatonin and was cured forever -- PLUS, I have the trippiest dreams ever! Take no more than 3-5 mg/night or you'll feel spacey the following day.

[AllUnderXAndA]

@jackinla8 I Take 9-12

[AdamJosiah1991]

Just took some of this stuff for the first time..... And now I'm very sleepy

[90W7]

Yeah the stuff works!

Sleeping so good + crazy dreams

[BlackerThanNightProd]

Melatonin = a college student's best friend!! :D

Dorms can be noisy!

[90W7]

Hahaha the comments are priceless. I rarely sleep well anymore... Toss and turn all night. I'm getting some haha..

[Primer9]

@90W7 lol thats all i did until i started popping melatonin

[joepescifromcasino]

this shit works

[Reijerkolle]

While taking melatonin over the past few months, i have had dreams that i played for the Boston Celtics, and a major league hockey team, i have also ridden a hanglider through a large city.

this stuff is amazing

[mustangcowgirls]

Melatonin Works! I have used this before along with all the other tips... Get some sleep it is the best thing you can do for your mind body and health!

[CurtisSalopek]

Okay here it goes, I'm taking the Melatonin now. I really hope this stuff worrrrrrr....zzzzzzzzzzzzzZzzz­zzz

[Shuffle3956]

the best thing to do is workout afternoon, then pop in a melatonin pill, have sex/masturbate then sleep for 9 hours straight. i do this and it just refreshes me soooo much the next morning

[Mu5clehead]

Melatonin helps in lucid dreaming too!

[AllUnderXAndA]

@Mu5clehead i know



[ThcAssasin]

melatonin is th ish !! i had a dream bugs bunny was on a pink bike trying to race me XD..but that was with 2 blunts prior to the melatonin llol

[bluboy6554]

I actually take 5mg and sleep very well , and wake not feeling groggy. But I dont remember dreaming. May have the occasional dream but nothing trippy.

When I take Melatonin Gaba and Zinc together, the dreams come. And they are vivid. Some are trippy. I can cut 2hours off my sleep and feel better with this combo.

(for myself) I noticed that 7 hrs are perfect with just Melatonin alone and 6hrs are enough with the 3 together.

[Php48]

I started on Melatonin 3 nights ago, it works. Ive tried all kinds of sleeping drugs and herbs and nothing worked (except for pot of course). I feel great finally getting a good nights sleep with out waking up groggy, it has even helped with my depression. Melatonin has given me hope of getting off the toxic bipolar meds I've been taking that caused me to put on 40kg and gives me the shits and blurred vision, bloody poison.

[Sharif699]

@Php48

very true so many toxic materials out there that we are told to ingest, its a shame something as safe and beneficial as good pot is illegal.

[slumfproduction]

@Php48 Ha ha, exactly the same story here! I went to my Doc to prescribe me weed, he laugh and told me to try Melatonin... I did and iit works! But I still do weed and take melatonin to make sure i sleep REALLY good :D

[basicboi23]

I take Melatonin and it really makes me sleep but I keep having dreams of going back to work for a former employer that I hated; I never want to see him again. Why do I keep having these dreams; I owe him nothing.

[MegaFactMan]

Prolonged exposure to overhead high voltage power line electromagnetic fields at night significantly reduces melatonin production by the pineal gland. Scientific and medical research is starting to more clearly identify this reduced melatonin production as the biological mechanism for the many diseases and other health problems associated with high voltage power lines.

[getdrunk1990]

Melatonin is also proven to inhance phychic ability and contact with the out side world demons ghosts god exce... Look it up once type in google "melatonin phychic." I was looking up being phychic cause i would get strong feelings about somthing and it would happen found out the melatonin pills i been taking for years are linked to it.

[filoprince]

i tryed it d other nite night, 3mgs, went to sleep. had like heaps like 15 continuous dreams about all sorts of shit in the past like old primary skool, my son, ex gfs dad, some kind of virtual tennis fukin i duno n yeah more vivid then normal. i then woke up and i was sick ALLLLLL day, had fever i slept the whole day i was weak couldnt move felt like crap didnt eat. come 12am coulnt sleep so i popped another one. slept well with no dreams took a shower now feel super good :)

[Stifledsubmission]

i think i'll chek that out, i also think it shoudl help my workout gains... The better i'll sleep the more hgh my body will naturally produce so i'll recover better.

[wtf9171275]

LOL dood its like impossible to oD on it take like 7 you have some good ass dreams :P

[LimpLoser]

i just had a thought--what about blind people?

[getdrunk1990]

@LimpLoser blind people make more melatonin than people that can see. Because of that melatonin is proven to increase phychic abilitys and other sences which is why blind peoples other sences are stronger than people who can see cause blind make more melatonin.

[wolverineom]

in india melatonin tabs are available in brand names like MELOSET and ZYTONIN

only 29 rs per strip of 10 tabs of 3 mg

[wolverineom]

i am gonna cut half the 3 mg melatonin pill and use it today............

[k2spitfirek2]

Melatonin NATURALLY occurs in our Central Nervous System, in the central core of the Brain.

People with Sleep Deficiencies (Insomnia, Hyper-somnia, and other such Anxiety Disorders) can benefit GREATLY by taking this as a Supplement.

Triptivan, and Melatonin are found in Turkey. Why do we feel so tired at Thanksgiving??

Ah, NATURAL!!

Melatonin is also very cheap at Pharmacies. It's a supplement that Big Pharma does NOT want you to know about!!

Buy it in CAPSULE form, instead of pill form.

[shaithis45]

Melatonin, Valerian Root, Chamomoile, and other herbal products to assist with sleep are readily available over the counter and they WORK!!! I finding myself in deeper sleeps. Just a little hellish getting up in the morning but still helps the body to relax and get a sufficient deep sleep.

[bryandugan]

Yea melatonin has really helped me as well. The great thing is you can not OD within a practical range. Pills generally come in 3mg tablets and you can go far past 3000mg and be fine, no groggy effects or hangover. I take 4 or 5 pills. (12mg to 15 mg) and I do have lucid dreams.

[vallie30]

Sir,

Is it thrue that beta-blokkers completely shut down the melatonin production. In laboratories they use beta blokkers to shut down the production of this hormone. I myself am thaking Propanolol ( Inderal in Belgium) for 13 years. Is this a bad thing? Thank you

[SuperDelta000]

@vallie30 Yes it is very possible that chemical you mentioned shuts down melatonin production. So do psychiatric drugs which shut down everything completely.

[ASHRAUD]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[xpaladoshes]

Supplementing with Melatonin has helped me sleep many nights...but wouldn't taking melatonin supplements regulary tell the pineal gland to start making less melatonin and maybe even to stop making it?

[666hectik]

it helps with anxiety! i had it really bad yesterday and it helped.but my dreams were freaking wierd as hell

[k9forkids]

melatonin makes me have some wicked dreams, It's pretty fun

[gozorowski]

omg i know its like being on acid! i had a dream last night that i was being chased by elmo lol

[z31man]

I don't get crazy dreams...

[getdrunk1990]

@gozorowski It sucks for me. been on em 6 years. for 5 years now i have sleep peryalisis. Its where your mind wakes up b4 body n u start halsunating seeing a hag demon or out of body experiance. last night i had outa body n was spinning around super fast n was saying STOPPPPP trying to snap out of it. It was tourcher.

[Primer9]

@gozorowski how much are you taking i take like 7 mg and i hardly dream but have a good night sleep

[youthblood]

@gozorowski clearly you've never been on acid

[rostromojado]

I second that. I've been taking melatonin for almost two years now (it gave me my life back) my dreams have been extremely vivid.

[iMitotropin]

how much exercise do you recommend daily?

[phantomdiesel]

one hour a day at least 20 min (personal trainer) just trying to help

[odin422]

OKAY you've covered Melatonin.....time to talk about DMT!

PLEASE DO A DMT VIDEO!!!

5/5 stars

[MikeB0230]

wow, that would be incredible. DMT is some pretty interesting stuff. Im so into it hahaha I have been researching it for about a year now and cannot wait for the DMT the Spirit Molecule Documentary to come out

[Soulnik]

Another very informative video.

Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant. Its actions occur not only through the scavenging of free radicals but also through a variety of other, less direct chemical mechanisms that reduce oxidative stress, including the upregulation of antioxidant enzymes and the downregulation of pro-oxidant enzymes. This makes melatonin more versatile and potent than conventional antioxidants.

I personally prefer liquid over sublingual melatonin.
