21st Century Melatonin 5 mg is a highly cost-effective option for melatonin supplementation, providing a commonly effective dose for initiating and maintaining sleep. The inclusion of 94mg of Calcium Carbonate is a minor addition, which might offer a very slight benefit for bone health or muscle relaxation, though its primary function is likely as a filler or binder. Its main appeal is its affordability, offering 120 servings at a very low price per serving. This makes it an excellent choice for consistent, long-term use without breaking the bank. While it doesn't offer a complex blend for multi-faceted sleep issues or stress relief, its simplicity and value make it a strong contender for basic melatonin needs.
- Extremely low price per serving, providing exceptional value for 5mg of melatonin.
- 5mg is an effective dose for many individuals to support sleep.
- Simple, widely available formulation.
- The added calcium is a minor amount and not a primary benefit for sleep or other stated goals.
- Lacks other complementary ingredients for broader sleep support or stress relief.
- Limited in directly addressing the 'Anti-Aging' goal.
- While 5mg is effective for many, some individuals may find it too high or too low; personal adjustment might be needed.
- The product primarily focuses on sleep support via melatonin and does not offer comprehensive solutions for stress or anti-aging.
