May I ask a question? Does melatonin help you lucid dream by messing with your REM periods or does it just help you go to sleep longer so you could have increased REM periods? I’m confuzzled.

If you can sleep longer it will help your stay sleeping through those longer REM periods

Ok, so it doesn’t affect your dreaming directly. Thanks very much for explaining that.

yeah… and what is it exactly

Melatonin is a sleep and biorhythm hormone!
It is secreted when the body and brain are ready to fall a sleep.
When you get past 50 years old of agen it drops a bit down.
It is one of the things that regulates deep sleep.
When you live in a country with much sunlight and warmth the body makes less of it then when you would live in a dark cool place at earth, with long winters etc.

Jeff

Jeff I’m not sure if it is 100% accurate to say that the body makes less of it when you live in norther places.

Studies have shown that people who are not exposed to the correct amount of UV rays to regulate the bodies secretion of melatonin suffer from sleep problems and are more tired during the day. They have higher melatonin levels during the day than people who do not suffer from sleep problems, and then lower levels at night.

Studies have also shown that having melatonin in your system decreases your performance on test. However, it increases your performance if you have an increased level the night before performing the test.

This is just a rant… I’m not sure one way or the other about how much the body produces… but I know that it is true that it produces the wrong ammounts at the wrong times of the day.

No, i said u have a lower melatonin production in warm countries, that have more sunlight! Above 21 degrees celsius your melatonin production drops :smile:
But maybe that was not clear?

Jeff

Where you folks buy your melatonin from?

I tried two chemists and both were puzzled… They had never heard of the stuff and looked at me like I was crazy.

I began to think that my TARDIS had taken me to the wrong century, too…

Perhaps I’ll try a health food store next.

rofl ClarKKent hahah Tardis lol thats a good one! :smile:

Well i buy it at a good vitamin shop!
But u also can order it from the net.

Jeff

ClarkKent, if you are in the US, check out Walgreens.

Don’t you have a local pharmacy you can go to?

Local pharmacies don’t stock it apparently…

however:

Cherries contain melatonin, especially cherry juice…

I’m going to buy some cherry juice… should be good for LDing…

Where do you live? If you are in the US tons of places have it. It might not say melatonin. One brand I have seen has a crescent moon with a night cap on.

It is by all the vitamins and stuff.

Do you have walgreens?

Europe with no walgreens - but I think I’ll go for the cherry juice…

Last night when I went to bed I took b6 half my melatonin tab and the 8000% b12 tab (lol)… the specific amounts aren’t that important I don’t think because at any amount they seem to have the same effect.

About four hours after I went to bed I woke up wide awake (b12 always does this to me). I got up took the other half of the melatonin and was able to go back to sleep. I imediately entered a lucid dream.

So try melatonin in combination with WBTB.

I’ll be trying the cherry juice WBTB as that’s what I’ve got and it has melatonin (shhh don’t tell anyone) :wink:

I tried the pharmaton (ginseng+vit+DMAE) but I took some coffee some hours earlier and before sleeping I took a multivit B, I couldn’t sleep for at least an hour… Tonight I took a pharmaton and I’ll go for camomille and no vit b, plus cherry juice WBTB. We’ll see.

Edit: Still no LD this night… I did a 20 minute WBTB too and tried to WILD but I just slept…

I finally found melatonin, 3mg capsules. It is quite effective. I only take it by splitting the capsule in half so I take 1.5mg only. I swallow that. Once I poured the contents, a white powder, into a glass of water.

I even managed to WILD once with its help.

How many times a week do you people generally use it?
I’m not using it every day.

Hi Clarkkent, i dont use it anymore since i found out that it damages your sperm and making of sperm, it lowers the quantity of sperm u produce as a male. I took huge dosages like 30 mg but from a lab test on ppl you already have those negative side effects from 3 mg and higher. Well its only important if you want kids or a fam etc. Also i found if you took it every day it didnt work for dreams anymore, prob i just took to large quantities of it.
