[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not that I owe anyone an explanation, but children with autism have sleep problems. It is better for them to get a good nights sleep than to be up all night getting into trouble and being tired the next day. Melatonin is NOT addictive. It is a hormone that is naturally produced in your body. Autistic children with guy dysfunction don't have the ability to produce as much melatonin as normal children. Supplementing with melatonin is safe and natural as it mimics your own body's sleep mechanisms. [/quote] This is spot-on. They've actually found that, genetically, parents of kids with ASD are more likely to produce low levels of melatonin, and that it appears to be genetic. Not saying it's a great idea for all kids, but it's certainly something parents of ASD kids should look into, to correct the natural imbalance.[/quote]
