re: high dosed melatonin

I take 10 here and there. I’ve tried 20 a few times after reading this thread a while back. No big difference between the two. I’ve wondered what 30 or 40 would feel like.
I don’t sleep longer but feel like I’m usually more relaxed and better quality of sleep.

I am taking 50 to 60 mg a night. Sleep real well.

I may start with some expired melatonin, 2017. I may need to start with 10mg.
Is anyone still doing this, outcomes so far?

If need melatonin, sleep study may be productive use of your time.
For me, sleep issues were structural (sleep apnea), and any dosage of melatonin was just treating the symptoms.
Good luck

I don’t have sleep apnea and don’t need melatonin, I take it because I sleep better and it’s very good for you. You should not take it if you have sleep apnea

Ive been on mostly 60mg nightly for 6 months. I did go up to 120mg for a little while.....and I forgot why I went back down. I have no six pack yet, but I remain hopeful.
I recommend consuming everything by RJ Reiter, a physician scientist who researches melatonin. Better sleep is only a minor benefit.

As I mentioned earlier I sleep real well. I am not sure about the other benefits.

Very interested in this for a number of reasons. I currently take 5mg/night but may bump it up. As a Marathoner and endurance junkie the Mitochondrial effects have piqued my interest for sure.

Is everyone still taking high doses of Melatonin? Any feedback?
Posted on 3/7/23 at 9:18 pm to boxcarbarney
I have 2 bottles, 12mg and 5mg. When i feel like i need some extra oomph, I go for 17mg or even 24mg total.
Posted on 3/7/23 at 9:34 pm to boxcarbarney
I am still taking 60 mg and still sleeping like a baby. I have no clue if I am getting any other benefits.

It’s nice. I take a magnesium pill and like super low dose lithium and I sleep great
The lithium thing is odd. It’s 5mg as compared to like 800mg like they give to crazy people but if you read on the internet it says a lot of cities’ water has high lithium concentration. Must be why so many in places like New Orleans won’t get up and go to work

I’ve been taking 1g of L-Theanine plus a ZMA supplement on empty stomach and it has been knocking me out.

What brands of melatonin are y'all taking?
Posted on 3/9/23 at 7:20 am to Tornado Alley
If you wanna do the 60mg the only reasonable way I’ve found is they got a 12 mg bottle of dissolving tabs on Amazon that’s like 10 bucks but they have sales pretty often so get one now and wait for a sale and stock up

From page 2:
"I ordered the 25g bag and because 65mg is too hard to weigh out I think I'll mix it with sugar.
25g mel + 75g powdered sugar = 100g mix
So...
65mg mel(100,000mg mix/25,000mg mel)= 260mg mix
or just over a quarter gram. The sugar has about 4 cal per gram so 1 calorie.
And 100,000mg mix/260mg = 385 doses
Or
25,000mg/65mg = 385 doses
A years worth for 25 bucks."
It just so happens to work out as about 1/8 of a teaspoon of mix.
