Overview and (re)introduction in 2025: This particular video “Melatonin (part6), Mitochondria, Metabolism, Malignancy” was recorded and posted in early 2022 but was temporarily unavailable following pro-plandemic censorship from Vimeo in early 2025 because they said that I (as an American citizen with 3 doctorate degrees and innumerable publications and CME-level presentations) was not allowed to use free speech when talking about Dr Aton-of-Falsity, even though I have more education and clinical experience than he does!!!

Here is part#6 in the series on melatonin.
