BioStacksHow Melatonin supports sleep
Melatonin plays a key role in sleep. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Supplemental melatonin is commonly used for sleep onset and jet lag. In clinical studies, melatonin supports sleep onset and circadian rhythm regulation.
What dose to look for
Clinical studies typically use 0.5–5 mg of melatonin. Common supplemental range; lower doses (0.5-1 mg) may be as effective as higher doses for sleep onset. Supplements that fall short of this threshold are unlikely to match what clinical trials achieved.
Clinical research
Melatonin has strong clinical evidence for sleep benefits. Multiple clinical trials confirm reduced sleep latency and jet lag symptoms at doses as low as 0.5mg Learn more
