[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 129111, member: 15043"] Melatonin is definitely not something you want to be dependent on or take long term. It’s best use would probably be to help with jet lag and reset your circadian rhythm after flying through different time zones. Here’s a great video explaining why melatonin supplementation isn’t optimal [MEDIA=youtube]nB6SD0nfsO8:383[/MEDIA] There’s many things you can do to improve sleep quality, but definitely try magnesium before bed if you haven’t already.
