OT: L-Tryptophan in Europe

[vauxall]

Posted on the usenet but no success:

L-Tryptophan cannot be bought over the counter in the UK :sobbing: . Does anybody know in which countries in mainland Europe it is legal to buy L-Tryptophan (powder or capsules) over the counter? I am not talking of 5-htp but pure L-Tryptophan.

Does anybody know any UK or Europe reputable online source where to buy L-Tryptophan?

Thank you

The long arm of the FDA reaches everywhere, even outside the US! :shock: :woot:

The UK's weird like that.
You can't buy Melatonin in the UK but you can easily buy Codeine over the counter here.

L-Tryptophan is easy to get online. I doubt you'll find it in any "bricks and mortar" store.
