Is Melo Air Vape Bad for You? Here’s How We’ve Made It Safe

| Devon McPherson

If you’re thinking of trying MELO Air, you likely already know to take melatonin supplements as an effective aid to adjust your sleep cycle. You may even know that vaping melatonin works faster than taking it in supplement form.

But the thought of inhaling any substance might make you feel uneasy, which leads to the question: Is MELO Air bad for you?

Below, we’re going to answer that question in detail. We’ll start with a quick overview of the issue, review common vape substances, and show you what to use instead if you don’t want to use a vape. We’ll also touch on melatonin overdoses, what happens if you take too much melatonin, and how a melatonin vape is different to other substances.

Is MELO Air Safe?

The short answer is that we do not know of any risks or side effects associated with MELO Air. We’ve taken every precaution to make sure MELO Air does not have any of the established problems associated with vaping, as we’ll explain in more detail in the next section, so it is very likely a safe product for most people.However, as vaping tech hasn’t been around long enough to have been thoroughly studied, we can’t be completely certain we’re aware of all the risks. If you have concerns about vaping or specific health conditions and would rather play it safe, try MELO Sip. It allows you to take melatonin which delivers it to your system nearly as quickly as MELO Air, and comes in a 100% safe powder that’s easily dissolved in water.

Why MELO Air Is Safer Than Other Vaporizers

Vaping comes with a number of legitimate health concerns. We need to consider the issues with other commonly vaped substances, such as recreational drugs, the fillers added to the oil to make it vape-ready, and the issue of how our lungs deal with vaporized particles in general. 

Here, we’ll explore some of the pitfalls of other vaporizers and show you how MELO Air has been made safer.

MELO Air Contains No Nicotine

E-cigarettes have been touted as a smoking cessation product, but this isn’t supported by data. In fact, evidence suggests e-cigarette users are even less likely to quit smoking than smokers who do not use e-cigarettes. Of course, e-cigarettes also contain nicotine, which as you already know is an addictive drug. What’s more, e-cigarettes may contribute to heart disease as much as regular cigarettes, which are known to increase the risk of heart disease.

The good news is that MELO Air contains zero nicotine. Unlike nicotine, melatonin is not an addictive chemical because we get natural melatonin production from our brains, so there are no concerns about MELO Air being chemically addictive.

MELO Air Contains No THC or CBD

Another popular type of vaporizer uses the active compounds found in marijuana: THC and/or CBD. Marijuana has been legalized in a number of states but remains federally illegal, and as with other federally illegal drugs, it is difficult to study. While there’s currently not enough research on the long-term effects of vaporizing THC or CBD, we do know such products have made it much easier for people to abuse these and other recreational drugs.

Melo Air is free from THC, CBD, and all other marijuana compounds. In fact, MELO Air has very few ingredients: It is a premium blend of natural melatonin, organic vegetable glycerin, and natural flavors.

MELO Air Contains No Vitamin E Acetate

Vitamin E oil can be beneficial for your health, but not when inhaled. Vitamin E acetate, which has been used as an additive in the vape juice of some marijuana vaporizers, has been shown to irritate the lungs. This is because the sticky oil clings to the inside of your lungs when inhaled. Vitamin E acetate has been found in nearly every reported case of “vaping-related illness.”

Not to worry: MELO Air is free from vitamin E acetate and all other unnecessary fillers. So, you do not need to worry about these vaping-related illnesses when using MELO Air.

MELO Air Is Designed to Be Used in Moderation

Many of the problems with vapes are associated with heavy use, and MELO Air is not designed for heavy use. One of the major problems with some other vaporizers is their sheer size. Since the advent of vaping technology, some companies have been making their products bigger and bigger, making it easier and easier for drugs to be abused. With a giant oil cartridge and a vape pen that can hold a lot of charge, you may be tempted to vape all day long. It’s a little too easy to go overboard if you’re only vaping to take melatonin as an aid to fix your sleep cycle.

With MELO Air, you inhale at most 5-10 puffs once a day before bed. One dose (10 puffs) is only 1.3 mg of melatonin. For adults, anywhere from 0.5 mg to 5 mg is considered a safe dose of melatonin. The entire device has 3.9 mg of melatonin (30 puffs), so even if you end up accidentally puffing it dry in one sitting, you don’t have to worry about melatonin overdoses.

That said, we all have different physiological reactions to supplements. If you’re new to melatonin puff bars, it’s a good idea to start small and see if a lower dose is enough for you, potentially working your way higher if you need to. You may be surprised how effective a lower dose can be.

Can You Overdose on Melatonin?

Yes, you can overdose on melatonin, but a lot of the information on melatonin overdose is about melatonin supplements in general, not vapes specifically. This makes sense, because melatonin vapes are still relatively new to the market. Getting melatonin from a vape is different from melatonin use via pills or prescription drugs, so they require a dedicated explanation. The good news is that you’re actually less likely to experience a melatonin overdose taken in vape form than in any other supplement.

(Important note: children should not take melatonin as a sleep aid, unless prescribed by a licensed physician. Keep your melatonin vapes, and in particular melatonin gummies, out of reach to avoid unsupervised pediatric melatonin ingestion, which would lead to melatonin overdose.)

How Melatonin Dosing Works

Have you ever taken too much melatonin? If so, then you know that taking too much melatonin as a sleep aid can actually have the opposite of the intended effect, creating additional sleep problems. A melatonin overdose can disrupt your circadian rhythm (sleep wake cycle), give you vivid dreams, and generally keep you from being able to rest. Other, more severe symptoms can include sleep disorders and negative effects on your blood pressure. Or it might just cause daytime drowsiness, making you extra groggy the next day.  

So, Is MELO Air Bad for You?

MELO Air has been carefully designed not to have any of the known problems with vaporizers and to prevent melatonin overdose. While the technology does need to be studied more, using Melo Air is very unlikely to cause serious harm for most people when used in moderation. What’s more, melatonin gets into your system much more quickly when inhaled, so it’s a good option for those nights when you’re having trouble sleeping. No need to take it several hours ahead of your bedtime.

The Alternative to Vaping: Melo Sip

By now, we’ve seen how safe MELO Air has been made compared to other vaporizers. But you may have other valid reasons for wanting to avoid vaporizers. For example, certain conditions can increase the health risks associated with vaping.

If you have any respiratory issues (such as asthma) or high blood pressure, are pregnant and or breast feeding, or just prefer not to use vaporizers, you do have another option: MELO Sip. This is a powdered melatonin supplement you can add to water. It won’t be as fast-acting as MELO Air, but it is more fast-acting than melatonin pills, and it is completely safe (and very tasty).

MELO Sip comes in three delicious flavors – watermelon, green apple, and pink star. It’s very easy to use: Simply empty an individual packet into a glass of water (about 6-8 ounces) and stir until dissolved. Drink it about half an hour before you plan to go to bed. Your body (and your taste buds) will thank you: Shop MELO Sip

Other Benefits of Melatonin

You already know melatonin is a sleep aid with very few side effects, but did you know it has benefits beyond sleep? For instance, it has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties: It reduces tissue destruction caused by inflammation. There is also evidence to suggest it can help treat the flu when used with antiviral drugs. It may even be helpful in the treatment of COVID-19.

Try MELO Air or MELO Sip to Help You Sleep Better

Whether you decide to take melatonin via a vape or a dietary supplement, be aware of how much you’re taking, and how it will affect your body. 

Both MELO Air and MELO Sip have been designed with an advanced fast acting formula, but MELO Air is the fastest way to experience the benefits of melatonin. Like MELO Sip, MELO Air also comes in a variety of sweet flavor profiles. The most popular is cotton candy, but you can also try lavender dream, peach cream, midnight mint, banana, rainbow road, bubble gum, and gummy bear.

Be careful not to take too much melatonin to avoid a melatonin overdose, and contact your doctor for more assistance if you have a sleep disorder or need help with sleep aids to maintain a healthy sleep wake cycle. If you are on prescription medications, they will be able to supply the correct melatonin dosage for you.

Get started today by ordering some MELO Air or MELO Sip (or both) to experience feelings of relaxation and help you catch some Z's.
