FDA and WTO Against Natural Cures, Prozac vs. L-Tryptophan
http://www.encognitive.com
Why are the FDA and WTO against dietary supplements? It has to do with Codex, which is covertly controlled by the pharmaceutical industry…
“The fact that the FDA ban of L-Tryptophan and the Newsweek Prozac cover story occurred within four days of each other went unnoticed by both the media and the public. Yet, to those who understand the effective properties of L- Tryptophan…the concurrence seems ‘unbelievably coincidental.’” – The FDA Ban of L-Tryptophan: Politics, Profits and Prozac, Dean Wolfe Manders, Ph.D., Social Policy, Vol. 26, No. 2 Winter 1995
As with L-tryptophan, 5-HTP, as a serotonin precursor, has potential to effect a wide range of bodily functions, including, but not limited to mood, appetite, sleep and sexual function. Its effects on sexual functions are least known. There is the hypothesis that 5-HTP might be nature’s potent aphrodisiac. As results of a number of studies have shown, 5-HTP definitely plays a role in sexual orientation, motivation, and behavior through some synergistic pathway with testosterone. In addition, 5-HTP is also found to effect sexual maturation and response in a circadian manner.

Wow..I don’t get …
Wow..I don’t get why you guys are annoyed about the FDA. I saw nothing wrong with what Micheal R Taylor said. Oh no, the drugs have side-effects, no way. Stop riding this weird train that the FDA are monstrous people. Anti-depressants help saved a lot of my friends lives. If you like natural supplements, that’s cool, but don’t yell at the FDA just because a drug which has the side effects LISTED, makes you act differently.
I’ve found out that …
I’ve found out that the Pharma co. has dumped 271 million pounds of drugs into the our waterways, why is’t tjhere more news and hollering about it. That is recklessly druging our children, wildlife and etc.
yeah they want us …
yeah they want us to go PROZAK KKRAZI so they could control us
yeah that’s not …
yeah that’s not only the elderly, anyone taking medication will inevitably be in that position
johnsmdm–cold …
johnsmdm–cold turkey is code for licking my boner right john ,your such a man ,lick lick
What I’m skeptical …
What I’m skeptical about is how the elderly like my grandmother are put on all these medications.I think doctors prescribe the elderly on wayyy too many meds. They keep adding more meds to counteract the side effects of meds they are currently taking. Something isn’t right.
you pretty much …
you pretty much take the same list of supplements I do (added a daily multi-vitamin), and they work excellent. When I was on Prozac, I was a nervous wreck and it had no positive effect.

The FDA is nothing …
The FDA is nothing more than a Mindless Puppet
Of big Pharma.They are Sold Out and need to be
Reformed from top down.
They are a disgrace Look at what they are doing to alternative treatments
And their War on vitamins and Herbs It is Insane and this
Madness is killing Millions ,FDA is a criminal organization
And many People need to be arrested
ohh no..go cold …
ohh no..go cold turkey sir..6 months at Rikers is no joke..
What should I …
What should I expect from it? Do you still take it?
johnsmdm sorry to …
johnsmdm sorry to hear that you got sent down it’s legal here in the uk how can you ban something thats in food it’s crazy. I really hope britan doesn’t follow suit.
L-tryptophan is …
L-tryptophan is legal in Canada. I order it through the Internet and buy them from health food stores.
Sorry to hear that happened to you.
spent 3 years on …
spent 3 years on the cuff for selling Tryptophan sirs, and 6 months in the pen.shit man stay away from the stuff it ain’t worth it man..
this is why alot of …
this is why alot of science is horseshit
high intensity …
high intensity cardio exercise and getting enough protein also help to lower depression
Just another …
Just another example of self interest, lobbyism, and other large corperation influence on the government. It’s saddening to be quite honest. I take St. Johns wort for depression with an adaptogen complex of 5 potent adaptogen herbs, all natural 72 mineral complex, fish oil, and ginkgo biloba all with acupuncture– that all helps me with my depression just as much as some perscription drugs that I used to take. Plus it keeps me healthier all around.
I wasn’t saying 5- …
I wasn’t saying 5-htp is the placebo, I was saying that the L-tryptophan may have been. This is because if 5-htp (5-hydroxy tryptophane) didn’t work for him and L-tryptophan did. It is strange because they work through the same mechanism, only 5-htp is easier to absorb and is only one step away from serotonin. L-tryptophan takes more steps and can become part of another amino acid easily. It’s harder to synthesize into serotonin so it makes sense that it would’t work if 5-htp doesn’t.
?????????
5 HTP …
?????????
5 HTP placebo effect? Okay.
But 5-HTP is a more …
But 5-HTP is a more potent form of L-tryptophan because unlike L-tryptophan it only has one step to become serotonin. L-tryptophan requires more steps. Maybe for you it’s a placebo effect
Such obvious greed. …
Such obvious greed. And….have just tried L-tryptophan and it works. For me, 5HTP, Amoryn, Rhodiola Rosea did not do a whole lot.
They make Xenadrine …
They make Xenadrine Sleep Plus with L-Tryptophan pills. So is that illegal? If so why isn’t it off the selves?
So the FDA has been …
So the FDA has been removing natural, safe, and effective depression remedies and limiting us to their synthetic, dangerous antidepressants that’ve been proven to be mostly placebo… all while brainwashing the population into believing their bullshit justifications while their only real intention is to fatten their wallets.
another example of …
another example of how big business and the government work through the media in the name of GREED!!!!!!!!!!!!
why??? where is it …
why??? where is it ilegal?
