Abstract
Plasma melatonin levels were measured at three-hourly intervals over 24 hours in 11 women with untreated anorexia nervosa, and in nine healthy women of normal weight. The circadian rhythm was unaltered but the nocturnal secretion of melatonin was significantly greater in anorectics. It is possible that this was related to nocturnal hypoglycaemia.
