Wanted to add my comment on the use of Melatonin. I'm a 59 year old female. Several years ago I had trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep. I would sleep for 30 minutes up to 60 minutes then come totally awake. This would go on all night I doubted if I ever had more then 2 hour un-interrupted sleep. I was beginning to manifest problems into my daily life (depression, anxiety, etc). I had read Judy Mazel book (the celeberty diet) in it she talked about the use of raw seseme seeds. I began having a cup of hot tea (sleepy time) and about a quarter cup of raw seseme seeds (making sure I spent the time chewing them). Also, I started taking Herbal Life's Meletoni (I took two) and also I took 1 to 2 1,000 miligrams of Coral Calcium. I would take these about an hour before I would go to bed. I now get 5 to 7 hours of un-interrupted sleep. On Jeff's comment below regarding vivid dreaming. Yes I do have dreams but they are wonderful and vivid... I would have to say my dreams have made a big difference in my life. Everyone would have to make up their own minds regarding the dreams but I would say test it and see what you think. Also, I discovered all Melontonin brands are not the same. I buy Herbal Life's (I get a discounted price as I'm a member of Resource Maxima) and their product gave me the best type sleep and did not leave me feeling droggy after waking up.
