I am concerned about the L- tryptophan capsules that they were banned. Are they safe? Do they work?

Thanks,

Stacy

Answer: Stacy,

Another customer just asked the same question. 

How do you feel about L-Tryptophan?  What kind of people would you recommend this for?  I know way back they took it off the market due to some unfortunate incidents. It was, as still is, totally safe. The FDA made a big mistake, now it’s fixed. 3 before bed is the recommended dose and can be taken by most adults.

Here is a good tryptophan reference – Here
