Life Extension Fast-Acting Liquid Melatonin, Citrus-Vanilla, 3 mg, 2 fl oz

Our family had used sublingual cherry melatonin for years (decades?) and loved it, but I insisted on splitting the tablets, even though they were only 1 mg., because I want each person to be on the lowest dose possible and only take it when they need it so they don't build up resistance (yes, thats a real thing despite what your doctor may have told you. There are studies showing that your body will build up a resistance and that too much artificial melatonin isn't a good thing--please research it if you are interested in finding out more.)So, I was thrilled to find liquid melatonin so that we can each take just a drop or two if needed (and more on other nights when more is needed) but I can make sure everyone is taking as little as possible to optimize their sleep.Pros:Easy to swallow for elderly and childrenEasy to dose since you can administer it by the dropHelps cut down on melatonin resistance by providing lower dosageWorks great for my familyWe love the tasteCons:Anything artificial you put in your body is not as good as what it can produce by itself, so if you can use natural folate from food and sunlight to produce your own melatonin, that will always be better than any product you can buy. For those of us that aren't getting enough melatonin on our own, though, this is a great way to supplement it.

My mother and I (she's 85 now and I'm 64) have both been using this product for 2 years and it WORKS. I have NO problem with the taste whatsoever, and neither does she. As other reviewers have noted, there are NO groggy side effects. On the contrary, I feel rested and perfectly alert after a good nights sleep thanks to this product.I put just 1 drop into a scant quarter cup of water before bed and I sleep for hours. When I wake up in the dead of night, if I'm feeling stressed about something that might keep me awake, I have another drop in a little water and off to dreamland I go!

This stuff works so fast it’s unreal! So much better than the gummies and faster absorption as well! Oh and bonus it takes great!

This brand of liquid melatonin works wonderfully. I have severe insomnia and am on three different sleep medications. Adding 2 droppers (6 mg) of liquid melatonin really helps on those nights I just can’t get sleepy soon enough. I take it sublingually (under the tongue) so it absorbs faster and am tired within 30 min. Combined with magnesium glycinate and I’m really sleepy. I don’t mind the vanilla flavor, it’s pleasant. My only complaint is that it’s very sweet but otherwise this is a great high quality melatonin that works fast since your body doesn’t have to break down all those binders and fillers you’d get with a pill version. As someone who hates taking pills, this is a wonderful way to get my melatonin without the bother.

Helps me drift to sleep faster than melatonin pills, with a more gentle experience. Pills cause me to awaken in a few hours with difficulty returning to sleep. If I awaken after taking this liquid, I can usually drift off again pretty easily.

I was hoping this would help my sleeping problems, especially since it's 1/3 the price of my usual liquid melatonin, but unfortunately, it did not. It would help me relax, but not fully put me to sleep.

Tastes good, works better. I even put a few drops in my night skincare to reduce wrinkles. I have used Life Extension products for years and trust their quality. I am also grateful for their research. Buy with confidence.
