Review on 🌙 Superior Labs L-Tryptophan 500mg: Non-GMO Dietary Supplement for Restful Sleep & Relaxation by Tamara Ellis

It is an undeniable fact that there is a link between depression and anxiety and lack of adequate levels of dopamine and serotonin. However, they don't tell you (nor will they) that SSRIs (prescription psychotropic drugs) *do not* (repeat) actually NOT increase these levels, but rather "recycle" the patient's already depleted levels, which would explain why* some* patients actually "feel" better but need to take prescribed medication for the rest of their lives to avoid recurrence. It also explains why others don't handle it well. Fortunately, you can now have a genetic test done to minimize this risk BUT back to the original study results; SSRIs do NOT increase serotonin and dopamine levels, they just recycle them. This means that even if/when you find one that you are genetically compatible with, you are still treating the symptom, not the problem. When I brought this to the attention of our doctors, she was in favor of at least trying natural remedies, not prescription ones, and we did, and it worked. L-Tryptophan increases serotonin production and L-Tyrosine increases dopamine production. Vitamin D3, K2 and omega-3 deficiencies (at least 250 mg DHA) also contribute (as does your diet). As always, consult your doctor as we have and hopefully yours will be as supportive as ours. No prescription required. We found everything we needed at SuperiorLabs at Revain and within 2 weeks (sometimes longer depending on how low your level is) we saw results. GABA and Ashwagandha root are also your best friends and both are natural remedies. Hope that helps. Much luck!
