You don't really need melatonin on "rare occasions" unless it's a multi-timezone jetlag or serious sleep abnormality situation (such as you are on a prolonged fast with elevated cortisol levels that inhibit melatonin production). In most cases, focusing on boosting serotonin (precursor of melatonin) levels throughout the day, will naturally boost melatonin at night, regardless of age. Our body works in a circle and bedtime is a part of it, not isolated event, so it's best to optimize the whole circle.

The link to the Magnesium L-Threonate is towards the wrong product. Thanks for sharing your routine!
Thank you. The protocol is very similar to Andrew Huberman's in his podcast.
“ I then take 2mg of EPA/DHA with food.”
Hi Louisa. Guessing this is a typo and you mean 2grams here? Cheers!
