RE: how long should it take for melatonin to kick in?

[Guest guest]

Try 3mg or Melatonin. That seems to work better for children like ours. didn't seem sleep very well with straight melatonin either so we started him on Sleep Assure. It has melatonin in it (3mg) and other natural sleep aids.....works great. He is asleep in about twenty minutes.

Happy Holidays

We started our son on melatonin last night since the full time enzymes

are making him a bit wiley and he won't lie down and rest...

But two nights in a row,,, it has been about 2 1/2 hours after the

melatonin before he finaly konks out. I thought it would be faster.

It is the sublingual kind. 1 mg.

Last night after he finally konked out, I could tell he did have a

deeper sleep than usual.... he even snored. ahhaaaaaaaaaahahahah

He has been able to sleep through the night since we started him on the

diet a year and a half ago, so I never tried it before.

Any thoughts???

what enzymes is he doing? could he be allergic to them? could you be having some die off and need some charcole?

Our son (4 1/2 and appx 40 lbs) takes 1.5 mg (1/2 of a 3 mg capsule-we use

thorne) mixed in juice and he is out within 10-15 minutes.
