Melatonin. You've probably taken it for sleep. But that's only a small part of the story.
Over the past decade, melatonin has gone from a niche sleep aid to one of the most actively researched hormones in medicine, studied for its role in heart disease, cancer, depression, diabetes, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, chronic pain, fertility, bone health, and even protection against sunburn and radiation. At the same time, use in children has grown so fast that melatonin is now the leading cause of child poisoning calls to poison control centers in the United States, and independent testing keeps finding that many gummies don't contain what the label promises.
Melatonin in Health and Disease is a completely rewritten and expanded second edition from Jacob Rosenberg, a professor of surgery who has spent three decades running clinical trials on melatonin, in operating rooms, cardiac wards, and cancer clinics. Written for the general reader, with no medical background assumed, this book walks through what melatonin actually is, how your internal body clock works, and what the evidence really shows, and does not show, for each of its many claimed uses.
Inside, you'll find:
