Basically a 1lb (435g) bag of pistachios contains about 100mg or highly bioavailable melatonin. Example: I normally had to take 150mg melatonin with 750mg niacin to not flush. Today I ate about 30g (50) of pistachios and 750mg niacin and no flush.
1 pistachio carries about 0.22mg of melatonin. If I ate 50 pistachios, I ingested approximately 11mg melatonin. You can see that supplement melatonin is inferior in a big way to getting from a natural source.
