RE skin pigment.
I have not looked at this aspect at all. I googled it and note some make a connection, and so cannot comment on the skin connection.
Given the potential involvement of melatonin in a number of pathways there is no reason why melatonin should not somehow impact on skin cell formation.
RE Oestrogen Progesterone.
That I suppose is the poins from what the trial is suggesting melatonin seems to be mitigating the negative side of oestrogen when things are going wrony at a cellular level.
Oestrogen is not inherently bad. It essential to reporduction. IT is reportd as an anti oxidant etc.
IF these sorts of suggestd reults were available for a patented substance Would researchers not be all over this.
Is this not another example where a lacking of funding for preventative medicine trials, the human condition, a drugs industry whose rules are written ultimately in terms of the profit imperative, combined with the absence of government funding for prevention trials is resulting in a promising area of prevention being under-investigated.
