Melatonin Alternatives

Melatonin, while effective for sleep, is often taken in dosages that exceed natural levels, raising concerns about its long-term use, especially in children. Alternatives to melatonin may be more beneficial, as melatonin also interacts with other hormone systems. Occasional use for issues like jet lag is likely safe, but chronic consumption could pose risks.
