Please tell me.

Use 5-HTP. It is a step closer to serotonin. Doesn't have the amino acid competition problems. Cheap and available at any nutrition store.

That is because it is effective. Did you try reducing the dose? I assume you want to take L-Trytophan to increase serotonin. If this is true, it must be converted into 5-HTP.

5-htp is much stronger then tryptophan. But I know Tryptophan was illegalized in 1989 when a bunch of people died because of a bad batch of it.

i'm pretty well versed on sleep aids. besides ambien, i've found that zinc (that's right, cheap old zinc in 50 mg doses) helps me sleep better than valerian root, melatonin, nyquil, etc.

Fonz keep on insisting that 5-HTP is crap and that L-Tryptophan is 100 times better than 5-HTP.

I've ordered my L-Typtophan but have yet to get it. 5-HTP worked great for me for 2-3 weeks but then it stopped.

Keep us posteed on this one

I also do believe that L-Tryptophan is way better than 5-HTP

not illegal

I don't think it was illegal....it was just largely discouraged by the FDA because some poorly made l-tryptophan caused people to develop something called EMS or MES SME or something like that. I think its basically like ephedra is right now....its not illegal, but companies shy away from making it beause of perceived risks.

No, I'm pretty sure the FDA has taken trytophan off the market. Not saying it was a good decision but it is not supposed to be sold in the U.S. as a single, free-form amino. Blame the Japanese. It was a company over in Japan that cut corners and ended up killing people.

 

[anthrax]

The FDA has taken trytophan off the market because the drug companies would rather sell their much more expensive antidepressants and sleeping pills instead (even though those drugs are no more effective and may have strong adverse side effects

 

[EngiCream]

It is not off the market

5-HTP never did shit for me either, although L-Phenalyline (maybe misspelled), did help to curb carb cravings, it and LGlutamine
