Now's Trytophan can be trusted
This is a fine supplement from a trusted source, which has helped many of us with frequent insomnia to find a restful night's sleep. So many supplement come from sources with questionable records, including the dominant one in so many strip malls, it's refreshing to find a company willing to take responsibility for their product.

Good Price
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to take 2-4 500mg capsules or tabs before bedtime. Now it’s just as easy to take 1-2 of these 1g tabs for less $. If you have difficulty with taking tabs tho you might want to stay with the comfort of capsules.

Sleeping better already
Sleeping better already. My naturopathic physician, perhaps unlike others, is highly selective about her nutritional supplement recommendations. She was definitely right on this one !

bedtime relaxer
Really helps me fall asleep, along with melatonin, but a little large to swallow for my small throat!

Works well
The wife takes this product on a regular basis and seems very pleased with the results. When she gets down to a dozen or so caplets she always reminds me that it is time to re-order. Overall, I am very pleased that this product has been made available by Swanson's. A name that I have come to completely trust for a quality product at a fair price.

Great product.
One of these at bedtime helps keep my mood elevated and also helps me sleep. I used to take the 500mg tablet, twice a day, but it is easier, for me, to just take this at bedtime.

Didn't Like
For some reason Now's 1,000 tablet form did not work for me. I normally use Now's 500mg CAPSULES and these work great for me (as expected). It was horrible not having the effective Tryptophan in my system that I'm used to. Since many people like this product it's obvious different formulas work differently for each person. If you're new to Tyrptophan be sure to find what works for you. I've used Tyrptophan for over 5 years, and with both Swanon's and Now 500mg CAPSULES I get great results, and those effects where felt in just three days. This product fell completely flat for me even the next day.

I Sleep Better
I take 2 of these every night before bed. I had started not being able to sleep well and when I would wake up in the middle of the night I could fall back to sleep. Now I fall back to sleep easily. I make sure I am never without these!

L-Tryptophan 1000 mg by NOW
Waking up in the middle of the night---or even upon waking up near morning---I nearly always can quickly return to sleep with just one 1000 mg. tablet and have used the NOW brand for years.

Swanson brand L-Tryptophan
I substituted this brand of L-tryptophan because you were temporarily out the "Swanson" brand that I have been purchasing over 2 years. This brand had no effect on me and now I am stuck with it. What a waste of money. i hope you have the Swanson brand that I am used to real soon. Jean Stachon

Both my husband and I have problems getting to sleep at times. This L-Tryptophan works well.
