I'm 27, and I take a quartered 3mg (0.75mg) melatonin supplement every
third night. Unlike others I've compared notes with on this topic, I find
that larger and more frequent doses leave me feeling sleepy on into the
next day. The above stated dosage seems to keep me very well rested, and
full of energy thereby. If it has an additional antioxidant effect that
allows my body to repair itself above and beyond what consistent quality
rest can provide, then I'm a double winner :).
