How much tryptophan?

[Noodles]

I was searching around and couldn't find this so I'm wondering how much tryptophan should be taken with like 100 to 250mg B6? And also should these be taken during WBTB?

ONLY take L-Tryp before bed. Its a serotonin precursor to cause REM Rebound after 4-5 hours. Therefor etaking it at WBTB will be counter productive. It normally comes in 500mg pills and the recommended dosage for sleeping is 2-3 pills before bed. I normally take 3 with a B6 pil before bed.

Most brands, including the one I use come in 100mg - which I take one of. There are some 500mg ones out there but 100mg should be fine. 100mg is already a large doseage (about 1000% of the RDA) MAke sure your L-Tryp brand doesnt already contain B6. SOme supps such as 5-HTP already include the B6 you need and you just end up doubling up.

With the 50mg I can test a larger variety then when using 100mg (i.e. 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, instead of just 100, 200, 300).
