Abstract
The production of the neurotransmitter serotonin is increased through administration of a therapeutic composition which includes L-tryptophan in combination with a salicylate, an ascorbate, calcium, magnesium, copper, pyridoxine, niacin and a carbohydrate such as fructose. Both the absolute free fraction and the relative amount of the albumin-bound fraction of serum L-tryptophan are increased so that transport of L-tryptophan from the blood plasma across the blood-brain barrier into the brain is increased. Once within the brain, L-tryptophan is converted to serotonin.
