So when it comes to melatonin, I know there's a lot of questions I get from people is, well, if you're taking a melatonin supplement, are you going to then stop making endogenous melatonin?

And that's also the conclusion I came to.

What about the ability, like your melatonin receptors?

I haven't seen anything either, but it's nice to hear that from you.

They might prevent.

Yeah.

It's why there's not a lot of high quality studies out there on supplements and you always have to take it with a grain of salt.

Right.

And it's like.

Well, with that said, are there any other, I mean, I've heard of a variety of supplements like magnesium, lavender, glycine, L-theanine, any, I mean, moderate evidence that some of these work?

Yeah.

No, I'm definitely not talking about insomnia.

And, you know, some people just like to have a little bit of help.

And glycine is interesting.

That's what I've been interested in.

Have you seen any of the thermal regulation stuff on that?

Right.

It's more of a GABA, like more of that inhibitory.

Fascinating.

So take your multivitamin in the morning, not in the evening.
