FIELD NOTE:::
Tryptophan affects brain serotonin synthesis when given orally in a purified form and is used to modify serotonin levels for research. Low brain serotonin level is induced by administration of tryptophan-poor protein in a technique called acute tryptophan depletion.
Note
Since tryptophan is an amino acid found in many foods, it is assumed to be safe in normal quantities. It's estimated that a typical diet contains 1 gram per day, but some individuals choose to supplement with doses of up to 5 grams per day
Application
Naturally occurring tryptophan helps produce serotonin, which has several health benefits including helping to promote better sleep, providing relief from anxiety and depression, providing increased emotional well-being and also helping to manage pain tolerance.
Dose
Tryptophan plays a role in the production of serotonin, a mood stabilizer, melatonin, which helps regulate sleep patterns, niacin or vitamin B-3, and nicotinamide also known as vitamin B-3.
