I’ve often wondered if melatonin is good for adults, since our bodies were designed to decrease its production as we age.
Melatonin raises my BP.
I should’ve mentioned that I don’t take melatonin every night—just when I feel like I’ve been short on sleep. I’ve read that taking it regularly might tell your brain to ease up on its own production.
Also, it’s important to take a really small dose; otherwise, you can feel groggy the next day. And it can interact with meds like blood thinners, diabetes meds, and blood pressure meds—not an issue for me, but good to know.
