褪黑素(Melatonin) 用于 年龄相关性睡眠变化
B基于3项研究(1项RCT),共30名参与者。3/3项研究显示积极效果。
结论
Melatonin may support better sleep in older adults experiencing age-related sleep changes, but the evidence is limited to very small, older studies.
- All 3 studies show positive effects, but only 30 total participants
- Includes 1 RCT specifically on melatonin for age-related insomnia
- Studies are over 20 years old (1999-2001) — newer research is needed
- Natural melatonin production declines with age, which supports the rationale for supplementation
