- Enhance rest - Improve Sleep Quality - A good dose of 500mg - Pharmaceutical grade and purity - Valuable sleeping aid during dieting Good restful sleep is essential for good health, both mentally and physically to slow down aging. Modern lifestyle at times can be too stressful making it hard for our mind to rest. L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid and hence cannot be synthesized by the body, but must be obtained from food or supplements. Because L-tryptophan is the precusor to serotonin in the brain which promote relaxation, restful sleep and positive mood. Serotonin level in the brain helps to reduce food cravings. L-Trytophan supplement is valuable because L-Trytophan is a relatively bigger molecule than most other amino acids and it cannot compete well against smaller amino acids over the blood brain barrier. It is best to be taken on an empty stomach without protein or other amino acid supplements. It is important that L-form amino acids are produced via high quality process to ensure safety and purity.
