I just read Art Solberg's Xcellent article about preparing Melatonin Topical Lotion & want to make some. He lists 1gram or ¼tsp of Melatonin should be used but doesn't indicate how many milligrams. Is it 2mg, 3mg, 5mg, 10mg or?? Would absolutely appreciate any clarification! Can't wait2try it!!

The recipe you're referring to calls for 1 gram. That's the amount. You won't want to use pills for that as it would take a lot of them. Get the powder from one of the wholesalers. 1 gram of bulk powder is approximately equivalent to 1/4 tsp (though a scale is much more accurate). For the metrically challenged, 1 gram is 1000 mg.
