L-TRYPTOPHAN This naturally occurring amino acid is part of the precursor of the brain neurotransmitter serotonin. L-Tryptophan plays an important role in our diets and aging individuals are often in need of it as a supplement. L-Tryptophan's uses include alleviating depression, alcohol withdrawal and as an aid to weight loss. Dosages vary widely, from a general supplement at 250mg to 500mg daily, to treatment of severe depression and senile dementia at 1000mg to 2000mg daily. Avoid its combination with other serotonin increasing agents such as 5-HTP or SSRI drugs, such as Prozac etc. "Tryptophan is one of the eight essential amino-acids
in the human diet" "Your tryptophan is the best I've tried, clearly it's
top-quality." |
