For those struggling with their sleep cycles, taking oral melatonin is one of the first ports of call. But in spite of its common usage and over the counter status, there are still a few question marks surrounding it. Taking melatonin, as with anything else, as a supplement comes with potential for side effects. Some of these are well-known and publicized, but other, rarer side effects are more obscure and unknown to the general public. So is the taking of melatonin to aid sleep safe?

What Is Melatonin?
Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced in the pineal gland which regulates the body’s biorhythm, or natural sleep cycle. Young people produce a lot of melatonin, and the amount tends to decrease with age. Other factors which can impact melatonin levels are the body’s exposure to natural light, alcohol, caffeine, and blue light (such as computers and phone screens).
