Melatonin helps you get into deep REM sleep, when most dreams occur. So if you had weird dreams last night, thank your pineal gland! The pineal also helps convert serotonin, which regulates feelings of well-being.

The pineal produces DMT, a hallucinogen, but not in large enough amounts to see UFOs or freaky clown robots. 🤡👽👾 In “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” Hunter S. Thompson’s main character took every psychotropic drug 💊💉 under the sun, but famously refused to touch “extract of pineal.”
