Sleep ease with melatonin and Unisom

Let me tell you about my experience with melatonin -- the wrong dosage and I it's like speed to me.
Seriously, I once inadvertently got a product with 10 mg in it. OMG. For two days I was sick with feeling anxiety and speediness.
Even 5 is too much for me.
I've discovered 1 mg is perfect. Weird, huh? 3 mg sometimes but other time it, too is just a bit over the top. So I bought 1 mg gel tabs and am experimenting with 1 and 2 mg.
It's worth experimenting.

Wow...interesting. Just goes to show you everyone is different when it comes to how their body reacts to different meds.

I read several years back that between 1.5 and 3 whole mg is adequate for most people when it comes to melatonin. The article's authors pointed out that it can be problematic to take more. Also, not only is is a pretty good soporific, but it is also THE most powerful antioxidant one can ingest.
