A large review of health data from more than 130,000 adults with insomnia found that people who took melatonin for a year or longer were more likely to develop heart failure, be hospitalized for the condition, or die from any cause compared to those who didn't take the supplement.

Once again a correlation is immediately turned into some bombastic conclusion for clickbait headlines.

Surely you don't think the insomnia could have anything to do with it?
