The effects are minimal at best. Placebo effect [engaged] not engaged.

The first study you provided studied 10 people with a sleep disorder. In the study itself it says

quote:

The results of many reports and clinical trials on melatonin suggest that it has a hypnotic or sleep-promoting effect. However, most studies to date8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16 have been done with healthy adults


Your second study

quote:

Melatonin publicity as a drug for reestablishment of normal sleep patterns, has been validated in a variety of sleep disorders since long ago.[17,18] Preliminary studies have also suggested that exogenous melatonin may improve sleep quality and alertness in night-shift workers.[19,20] A recent review concluded that, there is an adequate evidence in the medical literature to support the contention that “melatonin has a hypnotic effect in humans”.[21]


And

quote:

Thus, in this study we decided to use subjective self-report data


Bad study

Didn’t read. Crock of shite. The only studies needed are those youve experienced.

A friend of mine took it, it did nothing. It knocks his wife and kid out cold.

I last maybe 20min after taking 3-6mg.

Your studies are bullshite.
