70-YEAR-OLDS & UP MAKE VERY LITTLE, IF ANY, MELATONIN


NCBI writes

Melatonin synchronizes central but also peripheral oscillators (fetal adrenal gland, pancreas, liver, kidney, heart, lung, fat, gut, etc.), allowing temporal organization of biological functions through circadian rhythms (24-hour cycles) in relation to periodic environmental changes and therefore adaptation of the individual to his/her internal and external environment. 

So, Melatonin helps coordinate optimal functioning of all your organs.  How can I get some of this today?  For more benefits, keep reading,   

The physiological effects of melatonin are various and include detoxification of free radicals and antioxidant actions, bone formation and protection, reproduction, and cardiovascular, immune or body mass regulation. Also, protective and therapeutic effects of melatonin are reported, especially with regard to brain or gastrointestinal protection, psychiatric disorders, cardiovascular diseases and oncostatic effects. 

Wait, you mean to tell me that melatonin helps to detox free radicals, helps with bone formation, reproduction (can't hurt any age), heart, immune function as well as regulate my body mass?  Where do I get in line for this?  And it has therapeutic effects on the brain and intestines?  Whoa.

Melatonin or 5 methoxy-N-acetyltryptamine (Fig. 1) was discovered and isolated from bovine pineal in 1958 by Aaron Lerner.  Melatonin is the main hormone secreted by the pineal gland. Extrapineal sources of melatonin were reported in the retina, bone marrow cells, platelets, skin, lymphocytes, Harderian gland, cerebellum, and especially in the gastrointestinal tract of vertebrate species [2-9]. Indeed, melatonin is present but can also be synthesized in the enterochromaffin cells; the release of gastrointestinal melatonin into the circulation seems to follow the periodicity of food intake, particularly tryptophan intake [210]. It is noteworthy that the concentration of melatonin in the gastrointestinal tract surpasses blood levels by 10-100 times and there is at least 400 times more melatonin in the gastrointestinal tract than in the pineal gland [2]. Melatonin in the gastrointestinal tract of newborn and infant mammals is of maternal origin given that melatonin penetrates easily the placenta and is secreted into the mother’s milk [11-13]. It has even been suggested that melatonin is involved in the production of mekonium [2]. Melatonin in human breast milk follows a circadian rhythm in both preterm and term milk, with high levels during the night and undetectable levels during the day [1415]. No correlation was found between gestational age and the concentration of melatonin. It is noteworthy that bottle milk composition does not contain melatonin in powder formula. Also, human colostrum, during the first 4 or 5 days after birth, contains immune-competent cells (colostral mononuclear cells) which are able to synthesize melatonin in an autocrine manner.

MELATONIN: REGULATES NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASES

MELATONIN REDUCES THROMBOSIS & SEPSIS

"In comparison to the control group, thrombosis and sepsis developed significantly less frequently (P < 0.05) in the melatonin group during the second week of infection, while mortality was significantly higher in the control group"

Slate Runs Cover for Fauci

Never forgive.  Never forget.  Hold the Line.  Following Nikki Minaj's statement that her cousin's friend grew impotent following the vaccine, Slate, who pretends to do investigative journalism, slams MInaj in a hit piece calling her claims "vaccine misinformation."  Tags can work to praise or condemn.  So instead of vetting her claims, Slate goes to treat her dissenting claims as delusional.  Slate writes, 

A classic example of vaccine misinformation and how it spreads, Minaj’s post set off a nightlong round of ridicule. Many speculated her cousin’s friend in fact acquired a sexually transmitted infection that derailed his wedding,

calling her conversations with friends and family "rumors," in an effort to effectively dismiss any untoward claims about the vaccines outright before an investigation.  Why report on what she says at all?  Does one person, one celebrity have that kind of influence over Pfizer's bottom line?  Funny how the media doesn't run down other celebrities who helped launch the fear and panic porn of 2020 around COVID.  Remember it was Tom Hanks and his dutiful wife who took their marching orders and came out confessing that they too got COVID.  Very convenient  Too convenient. 

So instead of getting health records on her cousin's friend, Slate accuses the friend of promiscuity, of being a whore, and carrying an STD, suggesting somehow that the person should be avoided for their opinion because he is a possible biological vector but for certain a business destroyer.  The truth is that it's not just men but women, too, who have reported swelling, bleeding, and inflammation from their reproductive organs.  Primarily because the vaccines destroy the pineal gland of the brain, the one controls the sex hormones and youthful appearances.  

But rumors like the one Minaj heard, particularly around men’s sexual health, have made up a common thread of COVID vaccine conspiracies that really do affect vaccine decision-making. And they obscure an actually alarming fact: COVID-19 itself, not the vaccine, can “linger” in the penis and have serious effects on men’s sexual health. I called Dr. Aaron Spitz, a prominent urologist and the author of The Penis Book: A Doctor’s Complete Guide to the Penis, to explain what the current science tells us about what COVID really does to men’s bodies, the fears he’s heard from his patients, and why viruses like this only become real to some men when it concerns their dick. Our conversation has been condensed and edited for clarity.

Ironically, an article that urges men to get the vaccine, simultaneously reveals how sexual impotence is acquired by COVID and its vaccines to prevent COVID.

Coronavirus infection is already known to damage blood vessels, and vessels that supply blood to the penis appear to be no exception.

Researchers armed with an electron microscope found coronavirus particles in penile tissue samples taken from two former COVID-19 patients who became impotent following their infection, which had occurred six and eight months earlier.

Further study revealed evidence of blood vessel damage in the penises of the COVID-19 patients, compared to two other men with erectile dysfunction who'd never been infected, the researchers reported May 7 in the World Journal of Men's Health.

"We found that the virus affects the blood vessels that supply the penis, causing erectile dysfunction," said senior researcher Dr. Ranjith Ramasamy, director of the reproductive urology program at the University of Miami's Miller School of Medicine. "The blood vessels themselves malfunction and are not able to provide enough blood to enter the penis for an erection."

Finally, someone making sense.  We know that the vaccines cause blood clots, colloquially referred to as "Clot shots." Any impairment in circulation is going to disrupt function, maybe even cause permanent damage. 

Melatonin is uniquely suited to treat COVID-19 in men, particularly older men, as well as treat fallout or adverse effects, like infertility and impotence, from the vaccine.  NCBI explains,

As a matter of fact, Covid-19 may be remarkably severe in elderly males, i.e. in a population in which plasma levels of MLT may be particularly low (Touitou et al. 1985).

"Sleep the night before the test didn’t matter, the week & month before did"

Not only does melatonin improve the quality of sleep as well as duration, it's also been recognized as the only agent to normalize blood pressure if that's a concern for you.  

Bill Sardi writes, "Melatonin is the only agent that Dr. Houston has found to work to normalize blood pressure among patients whose blood pressure does not dip at night."
