Hey everyone, just tried these OLLY sleep gummies and wow! The 5 mg melatonin combined with L-Theanine and those herbal extracts (chamomile, lemon balm) is a game-changer for my biohacking routine. I've been tracking my sleep with a wearable, and my deep sleep phases increased by 15% after a week. The blackberry flavor is decent too—no weird aftertaste. Anyone else experimenting with these for sleep optimization?

Hmm, I'm skeptical about these. As a mom, I'm always cautious with supplements, especially for sleep aids. Melatonin can cause grogginess in kids (and adults!), and 5 mg seems high. Has anyone experienced side effects like morning drowsiness or weird dreams? Also, are these ingredients safe for long-term use? I'd rather stick to a warm cup of herbal tea before bed.

I agree with FuelFrank33—I'm a bit wary too. I focus on natural fitness and sleep hygiene, so popping gummies feels like a shortcut. But I did try them once after a tough workout when I couldn't wind down. They helped me fall asleep faster, but I woke up feeling a bit foggy. Maybe it's the dosage? SupplementSteve, how do you balance these with other biohacks like blue light blocking?

Great points! FuelFrank33, for safety, I'd start with half a gummy (2.5 mg) if you're new to melatonin—it's what I recommend to friends. Studies show L-Theanine can reduce that grogginess, but listen to your body. FitnessFanatic25, I pair these with my evening routine: no screens an hour before bed, magnesium supplements, and these gummies 30 mins prior. It's about synergy, not relying on one thing. Anyone have tips for cycling off melatonin to avoid tolerance?

Thanks for the advice, SupplementSteve. I might give half a dose a try for those occasional sleepless nights. Still, I worry about additives in gummies—any idea if these have artificial colors or sweeteners? As a mom, I check labels closely. Also, has anyone used these with kids (teens maybe)? I've heard melatonin can help with sleep disorders, but I'd consult a doctor first.

I checked the label—these OLLY gummies use natural flavors and colors, which is a plus. But I'm sticking to my routine of exercise and meditation for sleep. If I use these again, I'll try the lower dose and see if the foggy feeling goes away. SupplementSteve, how long have you been using them? Any withdrawal effects when you stop?
