An extremely affordable and effective pure melatonin product, ideal for basic sleep support, but it does not directly address stress relief or anti-aging goals beyond improving sleep quality.
Quantity: 180, Dose: 5mg
This product is a straightforward Melatonin supplement providing 3mg per serving. This dosage is widely recognized as effective for assisting with sleep onset for many individuals. Its simplicity means it avoids any questionable proprietary blends or unneeded fillers. From a cost perspective, at $0.03 per serving, it is one of the most affordable options available, making it highly accessible. Nutritionists and online reviews generally support melatonin as an effective sleep aid, and this product provides it in a clean, budget-friendly format. Its limitation is that it solely addresses sleep and offers only indirect or negligible benefits for stress relief and anti-aging, which are listed among its broader goals.
- Extremely cost-effective at only $0.03 per serving, making it highly accessible.
- Contains a standard and effective 3mg dose of Melatonin for sleep onset.
- Simple, single-ingredient formula avoids unnecessary additives or proprietary blends.
- Provides only indirect benefits for stress relief, as it's not a direct anxiolytic.
- Offers no direct anti-aging ingredients, relying solely on improved sleep for any minor anti-aging contribution.
- Low review count (24) makes it harder to assess broad user experience compared to more reviewed brands.
- Melatonin can cause drowsiness; do not drive or operate machinery after taking. Consult a healthcare professional before use, especially if taking other medications or if pregnant/nursing.

Categories
Melatonin 95.0
This product is a pure and effective melatonin supplement. It excels in delivering a standard dose of melatonin without extraneous ingredients, making it a quintessential product within the melatonin category for basic sleep aid.
Goals
Sleep Support 90.0
As a pure melatonin supplement, it directly and effectively addresses sleep support. The 3mg dose is well-researched and commonly used to assist with sleep onset for many individuals.
Stress Relief 40.0
Melatonin's contribution to stress relief is indirect, primarily by promoting better sleep which can reduce stress. It does not contain direct anxiolytic or adaptogenic ingredients, making its direct impact on stress relief limited.
Anti-Aging 25.0
The product lacks direct anti-aging compounds such as collagen or strong antioxidants. Any anti-aging benefit would stem solely from improved sleep quality, which aids cellular repair but is not its primary function.
