Melatonin and Health

In the area of other supplements the ODS cosponsored two workshops initiated by the National Institute on Aging: Melatonin and Sleep (August 12-13, 1996) and Melatonin and Aging (August 14-16, 1996). Both of these workshops provided a review of the most current scientific information about the role of melatonin in the body. Issues of dose, efficacy and safety were primary points of discussion.
