"Vitamin M" — is melatonin the cure for your sleep problems?

[Farooqji]

For some, melatonin is believed to be a safe treatment option because it is a hormone produced by our bodies. But evidence of its effectiveness is lacking, and inconsistent quality of product is a concern

lichZur Wirksamkeit von Melatonin kann ich nur sagen : Ich schlafe schneller ein, schlafe tiefer , bin jedoch fast genauso schnell wach wie ohne. Fühle |mich erholt und versucht im Bett zu arbeiten was bei mir den Rigor auslöst. der bei mir das wesentliche Problem ist

"Evidence for its effectiveness is lacking" means no money for randomized control trials. Inconsistency of product is likely but still better than some of the absolute garbage prescribed sleep prescriptions.

I think you’re wrong about this. There have been many CTs with melatonin. See clinicaltrials.gov or look through chartist’s (Art’s) plethora of posts on the topic.
