Is Melatonin Bad for Your Heart

For years, melatonin has been the go-to fix for a bad night's sleep. But new research is raising real questions about what it might be doing to your heart. In this episode of Healthy Looks Great on You, Dr. Vickie takes you to mini medical school to explain what melatonin actually does in your body, why most supplements contain far more than your body naturally makes (and why the label might not even be accurate), and the timing mistake almost everyone makes when taking it. Then she unpacks new research linking long-term melatonin use to a higher risk of heart failure - what it means, what it doesn't prove, and why sleep itself matters more for your heart than any supplement on the shelf. Because healthy looks great on you.
