DORIS LOH: Melatonin reduces cone sensitivity but increases rod sensitivity to light. Why does that matter? It is a story about reducing ATP energy requirements. That means using MEL will get you more vision for less ATP.

The reason is simple. Melatonin reduces cone sensitivity but increase rod sensitivity to light.

100 mg Melatonin. 

DORIS LOH: You can become "smarter" if you have efficient neurons that fire with greater signal strength allowing for faster information processing. Melatonin facilitates neuronal metabolic switching that helps neurons produce more ATP to support neuronal health, performance, and survival.

From General Surgery UCSF,

Most hepatectomies are performed for the treatment of hepatic neoplasms, both benign or malignant. Benign neoplasms include hepatocellular adenoma, hepatic hemangioma and focal nodular hyperplasia.The most common malignant neoplasms (cancers) of the liver are metastases; those arising from colorectal cancer are among the most common, and the most amenable to surgical resection. The most common primary malignant tumour of the liver is the hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatectomy may also be the procedure of choice to treat intrahepatic gallstones or parasitic cysts of the liver.

Liver surgery is safe when performed by experienced surgeons with appropriate technological and institutional support. As with most major surgical procedures, there is a marked tendency towards optimal results at the hands of surgeons with high caseloads in selected centres (typically cancer academic medical centers and transplantation centers).

For over 2 billion years, melatonin was synthesized by archaea and bacteria, the two major domains of life on earth. But it’s function could not be an antioxidant because there was simply not enough oxygen to produce reactive oxygen species that can cause cellular damage. [⅔] pic.twitter.com/wAybsgnp0L

If plants use melatonin to defend against viruses, do you think it odd that animals and humans would not do the same?

Science is uncovering, slowly but surely, all the excellent reasons why melatonin is produced not only in animals, but also plants.

High dose melatonin is best for anti-oxidant powers and less for sleep inducement.  But if you're interested, you should read everything about amazing melatonin by Doris Loh.   

AA can depolarize light and other EMF wavelengths. This is why nature uses it to protect cells from potentially harmful EMFs and why mitochondria express high levels of AA transporters in humans

The most frequent comment on melatonin supplementation is "I feel awful taking the tiniest amount".

The AA is Ascorbic Acid, or vitamin C.   

"Ultraviolet C Band of light had germicidal properties due to it’s ability to break apart the DNA of organic matter"

MEL continues to impress. New peer-reviewed study reports the formation of potent antioxidant metabolite N1‐acetyl‐5‐methoxykynuramine (AMFK) upon exposure to UVC irradiation. This means: cytotoxic UVC will create more antioxidant protection via AMFK if MEL is present #MedTwitter pic.twitter.com/cY46zGMTyQ

— Doris Loh (@DorissLoh) October 31, 2022

UVC is a particular wavelength of light.  

All three bands have germicidal properties that make them beneficial for multiple applications in facility management, including:

Coil Irradiation in HVAC systems to boost energy efficiency and reduce maintenance.

Air Disinfection through the use of Upper Air Germicidal Irradiation units, which is very effective at controlling the spread of influenza virus, the common cold, and most every other airborne pathogen.

Surface Sterilization is a newer application and there are a variety of devices sold that claim to do this.  Although the technology is sound the efficacy of how the different systems deliver the UV-C light to the surfaces to be sterilized/decontaminated is questionable.

It was discovered way back in the 1890’s that the Ultraviolet C Band of light had germicidal properties due to it’s ability to break apart the DNA of organic matter.

Anti-Aging Melatonin to the Rescue

Just published peer-review study found infection by SARS-CoV-2 regardless of disease severity to induce compromised lung physiology equivalent to 15 years of aging. https://t.co/BwPRNc5hta What is decreased in aging? Melatonin. https://t.co/5z8jAyQvCd Can MEL prevent C19 aging?

— Doris Loh (@DorissLoh) September 29, 2022

Be sure to get a second opinion on the anti-aging benefits of melatonin.  Dr. Russel Reiter says, 

I have a supply of melatonin with me at all times.  If I have a stroke or heart attack, I'll immediately load up on melatonin.  Based on what I know, I will take all the melatonin I can, as fast as I can.

Melatonin is just too smart for most people to get.

A recent-peer-reviewed paper explains just how 'smart' melatonin can be when it comes to being a pro-oxidant to kill cancer cells. Many thanks to authors for including my work on melatonin regulation of prion protein that increases ROS to kill cancer cells.  https://t.co/xPZsc8j5Uh pic.twitter.com/d7fwDJVyHl
