[QUOTE="paco, post: 5539, member: 37"] Personally, I was having a very tough time staying asleep throughout the night. I would usually wake up at least once and sometimes twice to go to the bathroom. On top of that, the last one to two hours were frequently interrupted by multiple awakenings for no apparent reason. A few months ago, I added L-tryptophan to the mix, and my sleep has never been better. I rarely wake up even once, and I don't feel groggy in the mornings. Here is what I do each night before bed: 30 mg zinc picolinate 400 mg Mgnesium glycinate/lysinate chelate 1.5 mg melatonin (I have heard others take anywhere from .5 mg to 10 mg) *2,500 mg L-trytophan *The bottle recommends 1,500 mg. Life Extension Foundation recommends "a strong initial dose (1,000 to 4,000 mg) for the first week, followed by a lower maintenance dose (500 mg to 1,000 mg)". I titrated the dose and found that 2,500 mg nightly worked best for me, almost without fail. [/QUOTE]
