A new abstract from the American Heart Association (the leading authority on heart health and guidelines) was published a few months ago regarding the safety of long-term melatonin use.
Why did they look at this data? From the paper itself:
"Chronic insomnia affects up to one-third of adults, and over-the-counter melatonin is increasingly promoted as a “cardiometabolic-friendly” sleep aid. "
We've been calling this out for years, and our founder would NEVER recommend melatonin for his patients. Finally, we have an organization assessing the risks of this compound.
More to follow. We will be keeping a very close eye once this abstract turns to full publication.
