The body does not have the capacity to produce tryptophan on its own, so this amino acid must be supplied externally. It is found in large quantities in products that are sources of protein, i.e. meat, cheese, fish. Tryptophan is also contained in nuts, legumes and grains. It can also be used as a dietary supplement. The well-known and respected brand NOW Foods has such a high-quality product in its catalogue.
