Thanks a bunch

Hi Gary,
I am very happy that your wife was able to relieve her trigger finger issue and pain so quickly! Please tell your wife she is welcome! Thank you, Gary, for coming back to let us know about another benefit from melatonin lotion as the list is growing fairly quickly!

Art, I have used more than 10 times on my wife before this response. I have used on her back, neck and knee pain. It works! Also your naproxen with Alcohol works too. Thanks Peter
Can I substitute Alcohol (70%) with GIN to mix with naproxen?
Hi Peter,
Thank you for adding your results with melatonin lotion for your wife to this thread. Always good to hear how it is working for people.
I think in the long run, you will get a better total effect by substituting melatonin lotion for topical naproxen because melatonin has shown potential reparative effects compared to naproxen which only has pain relieving effects. I also am seeing that the melatonin lotion has cumulative effects with regular use that may ultimately exceed naproxen's pain relieving effects. A very important point about melatonin lotion that I have not discussed yet on EC is that it goes systemic in such a way that it may be more beneficial than high dose oral melatonin for our health. I will discuss that point more in a future post, but this feature of melatonin lotion is very important for our health in many ways.
If you want to continue using naproxen anyway, then gin will also work as the solvent, but I would take melatonin lotion any day over naproxen topical mix that I mentioned to you months ago.
Continued improved health to you and your wife!

Where to Buy
I visited the Amazon site for powdered melatonin and confused about what strength to buy. There are bags with 3mg strength, 10mg They are different price from $20. To $40. Depending on size and strength and then there was a choice of laboratory grade 99.9% pure strength for $200. + or -?
Hi Dave,
Melatonin powder is available in one strength, but manufacturers describe using different amounts to equal so many milligrams such as 3 mg or 10 mg. They are basically mentioning the dose they are recommending and sometimes include a scoop for the amount they are recommending.
So any bulk powder melatonin should work. Earth Clinic has posted an easier mix that requires just one, 1/4 teaspoon at level full to make a 3 ounce melatonin lotion mix. You can find that in the original article where it has been added today.
A $20 bag of melatonin powder should contain about 25 grams of melatonin and that should be enough melatonin to make at least 25 mixes of melatonin lotion.
Skip the $200 bag of melatonin. My friends used the bag of melatonin that EC linked to in the article which is around $20.

My name is Hyacinth. I receive Earth Clinic emails. I particularly want to find out about the email sent today regarding Topical Melatonin Powder and the Cetaphil Moisturing Lotion to make to recipe for topical pains in lower back, neck and shoulder.
I called a Homeopathic Pharmacy but they did not have it, as I bought two other items related to Earth Clinic's email. I am really interested to know where the Pure Melatonin Powder and the Cetaphil Moisurizing Lotion could be bought as there was no note of this on the link. Thanks.

Hya, Hyacinth!
I noted this in the links above --- maybe it was a later addition?
Am doing research for my brother and a couple of friends, and maybe for myself before too long since 69 y/o knees feeling the stresses now.
Where to Buy Melatonin Powder
Bulk Supplements sells a large bag of pure melatonin powder reasonably priced.
Melatonin Powder Bulk Supplements - $18.96 for 25 grams - 8,333 servings
Hi Hyacinth,
I didn't actually add any links for ingredients in the article, but I believe this is the link that EC put into the article for melatonin powder :
This bag will be enough for 25 four ounce jars of the mix described in the article.
This is the common lotion that my friends used to make their melatonin lotion :
This bottle will make approximately eight 4 oz. batches of the lotion.
This is the gin that they used that cost under $20 for the bottle at Costco:
https://www.costcuisine.com/post/costco-kirkland-signature-london-dry-gin-review
This bottle will make approximately over 23 of the four ounce mixes. They chose this gin because of the number of listed botanicals (9 botanicals) in it as well as the price.
I am not recommending these three products, just showing what my friends used for their mixes. I would think that similar products would work similarly.

I will ask EC if they can add these other two links to the article.
EC: Thanks, Art. Links added to the bottom of the article!
Where to Buy: Canada
Hello Earth Clinic, I am not able to find any melatonin powder. Just wondering if anyone knows where to order it from? Regards
Hi Guzin,
It looks like it might be available on eBay Canada :
Canada is like other countries when it comes to melatonin and is not available over the counter.

How To Get Melatonin Powder In The UK To Use For Melatonin Lotion
Recently I came across a bulk supplier in the UK that sells melatonin powder. Here is a link to that supplier:
https://rawpowders.co.uk/melatonin-powder
I'm not sure why, but it takes a long time for their website to load and open.
I had recommended this supplier to an acquaintance in the UK and they said they received quick service and would buy from them again, so I thought I would share the link since melatonin powder seems harder to obtain in the UK compared to the US.
