A popular 1mg melatonin gummy for kids, convenient but pricey with added sugars.
Quantity: 90
Natrol Kids Melatonin Berry Gummies are designed specifically for children, offering a 1mg dose of melatonin, which is generally considered appropriate for pediatric sleep support. The gummy format is often preferred by parents for its palatability and ease of administration, making it a practical option for children who struggle with pills. Nutritionists might caution about the inclusion of 10 calories and 2 grams of carbohydrates (likely sugars) per serving, suggesting that while convenient, it's not the 'cleanest' option. Online reviews show a high volume of positive feedback, indicating its effectiveness and acceptance among kids.
- Child-friendly gummy form makes it easy and palatable for children to take.
- Appropriate 1mg melatonin dosage suitable for pediatric sleep support.
- Very high review count suggests wide acceptance and effectiveness among its target audience.
- Berry natural flavor can help encourage consistent use in children.
- Higher price per serving compared to many tablet or liquid forms of melatonin.
- Gummies contain added sugars and calories, which may be a concern for some parents.
- Limited to melatonin as the sole active ingredient, without other calming agents.
- Administer only under adult supervision and ensure the child chews the gummy thoroughly to prevent choking.
- Consult a pediatrician before giving melatonin to children, especially if they have underlying health conditions or are on other medications.

Categories
Melatonin 80.0
As a melatonin product, it delivers the core ingredient effectively in a child-appropriate format, though the gummy formulation with added sugars slightly reduces its score compared to purer forms.
Goals
Sleep Support 90.0
The 1mg melatonin dose is widely accepted as effective for initiating sleep in children, and the gummy form enhances compliance. Reviews consistently praise its ability to help children fall asleep.
Stress Relief 60.0
While improved sleep can contribute to reduced irritability and perceived stress in children, melatonin itself is not a direct stress-relief agent. Other methods or ingredients may be more suitable for managing specific stress concerns.
Anti-Aging 30.0
Melatonin's anti-aging benefits are primarily speculative and not supported by conclusive evidence for human use at these doses, especially in children, making this claim largely irrelevant for a pediatric product.
