Melatonin
Melatonin- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

Comments about GNC Melatonin 5:
Perfect supplement for those who have trouble falling asleep! I work early mornings (4am), so falling asleep at 8 can be difficult. The product takes about 20-30 minutes to work, and I get a good nights' rest, and with the price, it's a definite must buy!

Comments about GNC Melatonin 5:
My 30 year old son tried it an said it did nothing . Then husband tried it and was snoring on the couch in 20 minutes or fast asleep soon other days . He says he then wakes up at 3 am . I am thinking a sustained release form would be better. Husband also says some times he feels "funny" in the morning . Not great but worth a try . Probably best when traveling time zones to reset your sleeping schedule.

Comments about GNC Melatonin 5:
I take one pill at bedtime to help me sleep better through the night. Before I started taking this pill I would constantly wake up during the night and not feel rested in the morning; so I would be dragging all day long. This helps me get a better night's sleep. I still wake up from time to time; but not as often and fall back to sleep quicker. I feel much more rested and energetic in the morning. From what I've read this is a safe product with no side effects; it is replacing what my body should be producing on its own.
