What is the process to extract melatonin from supplements?

Greetings all, this is my first post here and everyone seems to be very helpful. But to the point, I'm interested in creating a YouTube channel where I isolate the main chemicals in various supplements and I figured I would start with melatonin. Only thing is I dont think anyone has created a tutorial yet so if someone could give me a detailed rundown of what reagents/equipment are needed that would be amazing.

Thanks in advance.
