Melatonin: Should You be Taking it?
Manage episode 421024802 series 2979418
Melatonin is a popular supplement in cancer care. Tina & Leah review the many uses of melatonin and tackle some controversies around this powerful hormone. Join us as they chat, like only two naturopathic docs can.
Did you know melatonin was first discovered in 1958? That’s a long time ago! Amazingly, research is still uncovering new ways melatonin affects the body. We know it sets our circadian clocks, influences immune cells and acts as an antioxidant inside cells.
But like so many natural agents, there are some cautionary tales, too. Tina & Leah explain melatonin: when you should take it, when you should not, and what doses are safe and effective.
