L-Tryptophan
500 mg
- Encourages Positive Mood*
- Supports Relaxation & Restful Sleep*
How it Works
L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid; therefore, it is not synthesized by the body and must be obtained from the diet. In the brain, Tryptophan is converted into serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in feelings of well-being, calmness, personal security, and relaxation.* It also plays a role in the regulation of appetite and synchronization of sleep patterns.* Every lot of Protocol For Life Balance® L-Tryptophan is tested to be free of Peak E and microbial contamination.Suggested Usage
Take 1-2 capsules twice daily on an empty stomach, with final dose at bedtime, or as directed
by your healthcare practitioner.
