Summary

Today I continue with more research studies that prove significant immune benefits to the use of melatonin. Do your best to put aside things you've been told about melatonin, because according to data, they're likely all wrong! Very hopeful information about the use of melatonin for immune support, reducing oxidative stress, treatment for cancer, and more. Part 3 and 4 to wrap up my discussion on melatonin coming next week!

My time has come, and I'm on my way Through it all I made it clear today, yeah

0:10.0

And I can't wait to see what's in front of me

0:15.0

So it was as if, you know, discussing vitamin D and reducing sugar

0:21.0

And these other things that I always talk about that can improve your immune system's health

0:25.0

It's almost as if they were keeping that out of the discussion

0:28.0

But this is an intervention that I would have supported because there's so much data to back up its use

And found such positive responses

Not just in one study, in so many studies with thousands of people

And again, these are severe cases

0:54.0

So you know it can still have that positive effect at lower doses for those who were not as severe

0:59.0

But it was preventing 40% of deaths

1:03.0

Reducing your likelihood of death by 40% your chances of dying compared to the controls which were those who did not have melatonin

1:11.0

And in the prior study that I just talked about

1:13.0

A 13 to 1 difference in amount of mortality in the group without melatonin to the group with melatonin

1:20.0

There was also a study in France that was talking about it was a study in animals

1:35.0

Because keep in mind, COVID-19 is considered the illness SARS-CoV-2 was the actual virus

1:41.0

So people tend to use them interchangeably

1:43.0

I've probably been guilty of that as well, but that's not technically accurate

1:47.0

So the coronavirus itself, SARS-CoV-2, that melatonin blocked that from entering the brains of mice

1:56.0

And why is that important? Well, neuroinflammation is a huge part of why people suffered from COVID
