Beschreibung

Tryptophan is a non-essential amino acid that has been shown to have an effect on mood, appetite, and sleep. L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid. It is involved in the synthesis of serotonin and melatonin. The body breaks down tryptophan into 5-hydroxytryptophan (5HTP) and then into serotonin. Serotonin can be converted into melatonin by the pineal gland. Tryptophan levels are often low in people with depression and anxiety disorders. Tryptophan also has an effect on human gastrointestinal function, as it can stimulate gut motility and secretion of gastric acid and pepsinogen from the stomach lining. Tryptophan may also play a role in the discovery process, as it was found to increase the number of spontaneous oxidations in rat urine samples, which may be indicative of a new chemical reaction or drug discovery process.
