Do we know why they recommend the melatonin, and why so much? 1mg kicks my butt, and I only take it if I've had caffeine too late in the day. I couldn't imagine taking 6mg daily!
Melatonin can help create glutathione. Here’s what doctor Wikipedia says: Melatonin has been proven to be twice as active as vitamin E, believed to be the most effective lipophilic antioxidant.[52] Via signal transduction through melatonin receptors, melatonin promotes the expression of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and catalase.[53][54]…
that being said, I personally wouldn’t take melatonin because it disrupts your hormonal balance if you supplement with it. It’s better to just get glutathione.
Thanks for both of your replies! I had no idea melatonin was good for anything other than making you drowsy. Honestly, that's the only thing I knew it was good for, so I didn't even think to look into other uses.
Edit: I figured the recommendation was just to promote better sleep habits.
