Did you know melatonin can actually make it harder for your child to sleep and increase moodiness and irritability?
Here’s why:
• Melatonin is a hormone — the only one you can grab off the drugstore shelf.
• If your child takes it regularly, their body can stop making its own.
• Long-term, it can even affect puberty since it’s made in the same gland as s*x hormones.
• And the wildest part? If your child takes melatonin and then hops on a screen, the light can actually convert it back into serotonin — keeping them awake and making them more irritable and moody.
I see this happen in my practice and sometimes we stop the melatonin and the mood improves. That isn’t always the case, but if you can take something away and things get better, why not give it a shot?
So instead of relying on synthetic melatonin, I recommend Kids Calm. It helps kids’ bodies make their own melatonin and serotonin naturally, so sleep comes easier without shutting anything down.
