Dietary sources of melatonin

Excerpted from the upcoming Migraine protocol, 5th Edition

Note: This section is excerpted from the upcoming 5th Edition of my migraine protocol, which was most recently published in Inflammation Mastery 4th Edition (2016). I do not anticipate what I consider major changes in the protocol although obviously some new perspectives and interventions will be included. We are obviously at a time when we need a paradigm shift in the management of chronic pain conditions.

Melatonin is found in foods such as tart cherries, goji berries, strawberries, eggs, milk, grapes/wine (especially some varietals of tempranillo), nuts (especially pistachios 233,000 ng/g DW), mushrooms (12,900 ng/g DW in delicious/saffron milk cap, Lactarius deliciosus), fish especially salmon and sardines, and medicinal herbs notably fresh leaves of Feverfew Tanacetum parthenium[1] which is a known treatment for migraine.
