When we were still attending farmer’s markets, I used to sell herbal teas blended from herbs I grew or foraged. Once we got known as herbal tea vendors I had many, and I mean many customers, who wanted a night time herbal blend to brew instead of using the melatonin. They would say the melatonin made them feel “funny”. They never could describe what “funny” meant. I created a blend that consisted of lemon balm(we grew it), chamomile (we grew it) and skullcap(wild crafted). Sold hundreds if not into the thousands of jars. Combined with our honey, moms were fine giving it to children(can’t give infants and kids under 2 honey though) and themselves. Was a nice little gig while it lasted.
Any thoughts/opinions on liquid sublingual melatonin preparations? I always assumed melatonin had poor oral bioavailability (as many tryptamines do) and that sublingual was a better ROA.
In Finland we used to buy melatonin milk.
It was fantastic stuff to drink before going to sleep.
The night milked cow is rich in the substance.
Unfortunately, because it was to cheep and good to be true, it was taken out of the market.
