I'm skeptical of your claim because if there's any additional margin to be made doing it artificially, at big-pharma scale history shows that they plenty willing to squeeze every penny out that they can even if it's less effective/natural.

That's true, but doesn't really squeeze natural alternatives out of the market if they're effective.

For example, there's a prescription engineered version of melatonin.

Melatonin is still a huge business.
