I read in 1993 that there were more than 15,000 published studies on
melatonin.  Apparently, it's a favorite grad student project.  I don't
think the FDA can legitimatly come up with a study critical of
melatonin.  I've been taking melatonin for several years with no
ill-effects.  I take at least 10mg/night and have experimented with
doses as high as 200mg/night with no effects.  My marathon and
ultra-marathon times have stayed the same no matter the dosage.
