One of the interesting things, how it helps women using chemo to fight breast cancer. It helps the chemo kill the bad cells and help the good cells survive. The doctors prescribing melatonin also started taking it because of all the good benefits they see besides the benefits of surviving cells.

The reason they had women supplement with melatonin because women with higher levels of melatonin survive breast cancer better.

They are using 100 mg to 200 mg daily. Both the doctors and patients.
