Source Naturals Sleep Science Melatonin Liquid provides 2mg of melatonin along with 335mcg of Vitamin B-6, which is known to support melatonin production and nerve function, contributing to sleep and relaxation. The liquid form allows for precise dosing and potentially quicker absorption. What sets this product apart is its surprisingly low price per serving for a liquid, making it a truly excellent value. It offers the benefits of a liquid form without the prohibitive cost often associated with them. Nutritionists often appreciate the combination of melatonin with B6 for a more comprehensive sleep approach, and reviews generally reflect positive experiences.

Categories
Melatonin 90.0
This product stands out in the melatonin collection due to its effective dose, convenient liquid form, and excellent price point, making it a highly competitive option for pure melatonin delivery.
Goals
Sleep Support 90.0
The 2mg melatonin dose is effective, and the addition of Vitamin B-6 enhances its sleep-supporting capabilities. The liquid format offers flexible dosing for optimal individual sleep onset.
Stress Relief 60.0
While effective sleep can significantly reduce stress, this product's direct impact on stress is limited to its sleep-promoting effects. Vitamin B-6 contributes to nerve health, which can indirectly aid, but it's not a primary stress reliever.
Anti-Aging 30.0
The anti-aging claims for melatonin at typical supplemental doses are largely theoretical and not strongly supported by sufficient human clinical evidence. This product offers no unique features in this regard.
