I'm not sure we should cover our food in melatonin. People would recoil at the thought of pretty much any other hormone being added to our food supply.

It's strange to me how Melatonin is so uncontrolled in usage, dosage, etc., despite being a hormone.

The article suggests it's safer than current food additives, but I find that statement questionable. We don't understand the full effect of Melatonin on the human body, so I don't know how you can make that conclusion.
