Are Antidepressants Just Treating Protein Deficiency?
This one amino acid outperforms antidepressant drugs in clinical trials but protein itself would be even better.
Getting protein up to 120 grams per day for women and 160 grams per day for men would likely massively outperform antidepressant drugs just by itself, and these targets form a central foundation of the Depression Protocol.
While this relates to much more than tryptophan, getting enough tryptophan is certainly part of it, so we start by looking at the randomized controlled trials of this one powerful little amino acid.
