Common questions

Is Melatonin healthy?

Melatonin scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Melatonin?

Melatonin lists 10 ingredients, starting with Magnesium (as Ionic Magnesium Citrate), l-Theanine, Melatonin, Pectin and Citric Acid. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

Does Melatonin contain seed oils?

Yes. Melatonin lists Organic Sunflower Oil in its ingredients.

How processed is Melatonin?

Melatonin has no NOVA group. Tallow works NOVA out from the ingredient list, and it does not apply to supplements or non-food products; a food whose ingredients are not all classified yet stays unknown instead of being guessed. Either way the processing axis scores it neutrally.

How does Melatonin compare to other sleep & relaxation?

At 15/100 Melatonin scores worse than most sleep & relaxation we have scored. A higher-scoring option in sleep & relaxation is Nutricost L-Theanine 200 Mg Capsules at 97/100.

Is Melatonin organic?

Melatonin is not certified organic in our data.
