375: Is Melatonin Bad For You? (Plus, Melatonin Benefits, Dosing + Side Effects) w/ Dr. Deanna Minich

“Is melatonin bad for you?” It’s one of the most common questions I get — often fueled by misinformation claiming it shuts down your body’s natural production.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Deanna Minich, a nutrition scientist and expert in functional medicine, to bust this myth and explain why that fear is not only false but scientifically impossible. We explore melatonin’s powerful role beyond sleep — including its impact on the skin, gut, and overall health.

If you've been worried about melatonin supplements, this episode will give you a whole new perspective.
