Let’s talk about melatonin benefits! In today’s episode, my guest and I discuss why melatonin is so powerful and much more than just a sleep aid. Its potential for regulating your body goes far beyond sleep, given that it’s produced in your skin and your gut.
There are unfortunately many misconceptions about melatonin. In fact, “Is melatonin bad for you?” is the most common question I’m asked whenever I suggest melatonin.
A common concern is that you can become addicted to it if you take melatonin supplements, wrecking your body’s ability to produce it naturally.
Let me ease your mind: If you’ve been convinced that this melatonin side effect is real – you’ve been duped.
And during this episode, you’ll discover WHY this claim is not only false, but physically impossible.
My guest, Dr. Deanna Minich, has extensively studied melatonin benefits to uncover its hidden potential to transform your health. She is a nutrition scientist, educator, and author, with over twenty years of experience in academia and in the natural product industries, currently serving as Chief Science Officer at Symphony Natural Health. Dr. Minich has been active as a functional medicine clinician in clinical trials and in her own practice (Food & Spirit™).
