The active ingredient of melatonin sold in China is "melatonin" or "melatonin". Its English name is Melatonin
. Melatonin is a Chinese trade name created for sales purposes. Brain platinum and brain gold are not similar substances at all, and have no similarities in terms of chemical properties or physiological effects.
Melatonnin has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on improving sleep (note: it is only an auxiliary, not universally applicable. Many people take it without any effect), and other side effects are unknown (note: the side effects are unknown).
The above is a scientific statement, neither good nor bad, because it has certain commercial value and involves the interests of a certain group of people, so it cannot be beaten to death with a stick; because the research is not long ago, There is no systematic statistical data, so the side effects are unknown. Some compounds are used on a large scale when they are found to be effective in treating a certain disease (as long as there are no obvious side effects because they have commercial value), and then after decades of use, some research results will suddenly appear saying that they are serious. Chronic side effects, there may also be some research results that say it can treat other chronic diseases.
For example, if this were the 1920s, cigarettes could also be called health care products. What effects they had, the hype was overwhelming! (Smoking was not considered harmful at that time, and tobacco had great commercial value.) As a result, 50 years later, there are a lot of statistical research data, and it is also very detailed. The research data shows that smoking can indeed cause lung cancer, cardiovascular disease and other diseases. It’s high incidence, that’s why smoking has so many harmful effects. Sometimes to say what is harmful, you must have long-term and detailed research and statistical data. Otherwise, vested interests or patent owners will sue you to death, file a lawsuit with you, and beat you penniless. There may be even more despicable methods. Because you have touched other people's interests and destroyed their jobs. This is why it is said that Melatonnin has "unknown other side effects", so it is best not to take these compounds if you can.
Melatonnin is a synthetic compound produced and approved as a health product, not a nutritional product. Cordyceps, ginseng, and royal jelly are considered nutritional supplements.
Melatonnin is a small bottled tablet in the United States, with 3 mg of active ingredient per tablet. Each bottle contains 100 to 300 tablets. It is sold relatively cheaply. A bottle of 300 tablets costs about a few dollars (no more than 10 US dollars). ), one bottle of melatonnin's active ingredient platinum is more than five bottles. The so-called "youthful health products" in advertisements are definitely deception and exaggerated propaganda.
