About LIDTKE Technologies...

LIDTKE Technologies was founded 13 years ago to provide rare and extremely high-quality nutrients to medical doctors, naturopaths, veterinarians, and alternative health practitioners throughout the country.

Due to the emergence of the internet, word of LIDTKE products spread to the general public, and we now supply both health practitioners and the general public in the United States and in over twenty-five other countries.

L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that your body must have to sustain life. L-Tryptophan is found in many proteins, enzymes and neurotransmitters throughout your body, including serotonin and melatonin. That’s right, it is from L-Tryptophan alone that your body naturally makes serotonin and melatonin. For this reason, no other amino acid, vitamin, mineral, herb or drug can take the place of L-Tryptophan.

The fact that this amino acid is absolutely critical to your health is confirmed by the fact that L-Tryptophan is routinely added to baby formulas, where it is essential for growth, and to hospital intravenous solutions (IV’s), where it is essential to life. Furthermore, plasma amino-acid analysis of hundreds of patients demonstrates that L-Tryptophan is the amino acid most deficient in our diet. As demonstrated by Dr. Charles Jarowski, former head of Research and Development at Pfizer, Inc., when an essential amino acid such as L-Tryptophan is in short supply, a host of health conditions begin to surface, often emotional ones, first.

Clinical research proves benefits of L-Tryptophan

Because L-Tryptophan is the amino acid most lacking in our diet, it should be no surprise that L-Tryptophan supplements have been widely used to correct deficiencies for more than thirty years by doctors in the United States and Europe. Psychiatrists, medical doctors, and nutritionists, alike, have long recognized the value of pure L-Tryptophan for maintaining good health, promoting a cheerful mood, relieving irritability, reducing the craving for sweets and carbohydrates, and encouraging normal, healthy sleep.

L-Tryptophan and weight loss

During dieting, L-Tryptophan levels and serotonin levels drop dramatically. These low serotonin levels in overweight and obese patients are known to cause carbohydrate cravings and the resultant binge eating. Because brain and blood levels of serotonin, rise and fall depending on the amount of L-Tryptophan you consume, many health practitioners use L-Tryptophan to stop the cravings and help diets succeed.

Numerous clinical trials on overweight patients have demonstrated food cravings decrease, and food intake decreases when serotonin levels are high.

As medical awareness of the impact of L-Tryptophan on health continues to grow, it should be remembered that essential nutrients are not drugs, and it takes time to replenish your body’s supply, but it is well worth it! Some symptoms of an L-Tryptophan deficiency may disappear within days, but because essential amino acids are involved in nearly every bodily function, we always advise allowing 60 days for full benefit. Remember, there is no substitute for what your body really needs.

A message from LIDTKE

If you are unfamiliar with L-Tryptophan, it is naturally found in protein and has been recommended by nutritionally-educated doctors in America and Europe for over thirty years.

You should be aware that your body does not make L-Tryptophan, and you cannot live without it. To show you the importance of this critical amino acid, L-Tryptophan is commonly added to baby formulas because it is essential for growth.  Moreover, L-Tryptophan is added to hospital intravenous solutions (IV’s) where it is absolutely essential to life.

Many of our clients:  Psychiatrists, medical doctors, and nutritionists, alike, have long recognized the value of L-Tryptophan for maintaining good health, promoting a cheerful mood, relieving irritability, reducing the craving for sweets and carbohydrates, and encouraging normal, healthy sleep.

The fact is, L-Tryptophan is a product that many thousands of patients and health-conscious consumers use and depend on.

Please read just a few of our many testimonials below.

Although L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid commonly found in protein, it is important to understand that L-Tryptophan also is the amino acid most lacking in your diet.  Plasma amino-acid analysis of hundreds of patients demonstrates that L-Tryptophan is the amino acid most deficient in the American diet.

As demonstrated by Dr. Charles Jarowski, former head of Research and Development at Pfizer, Inc., when an essential amino acid such as L-Tryptophan is in short supply, a host of health conditions begin to surface, often emotional ones, first.

Remember, because L-Tryptophan is an essential nutrient, no other amino acid, protein, vitamin, mineral, herb or drug can take the place of L-Tryptophan.

With so many articles being written about the importance of serotonin and the use of serotonin-mimicking drugs, not everyone knows that L-Tryptophan is the only, natural building-block of serotonin, the natural brain chemical that helps you remain calm, yet focused.

Countless research articles document the fact that serotonin reduces anxiety, promotes a cheerful mood, promotes restful sleep, and reduces the craving for carbohydrates, sweets, and other fattening foods.

L-Tryptophan, being an essential nutrient, provides so many benefits, in fact, they are hard to number.  For example, one metabolite of L-Tryptophan may increase zinc absorption.  Patients with zinc and vitamin B6 deficiency often experience severe inner tension, anxiety and phobias.  According to Dr. Eric Braverman in The Healing Nutrients Within, “These patients do well with L-Tryptophan supplementation.”

Dr. Braverman continues:  “A sixteen-year-old boy came to us with a history of vandalism, violence and aggression.  We started him on 2 gm of L-Tryptophan am and pm…  One month later, the patient returned, having been transformed from a wolf to a lamb.  Slowly, for the next two months, we tapered his dose to 2 gm daily, without reappearance of symptoms.”

With American’s consuming so much protein, it might seem unlikely that L-Tryptophan could be in short supply, but it is true.  Furthermore, as established in Research done by Richard and Judith Wurtman at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), high-protein diets actually interfere with L-Tryptophan absorption by your brain, where it is most needed for mental and emotional health.

According to an article in the journal, Psychosomatics, the high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets so common today may actually be aggravating anxiety disorders, such as panic disorders.  Unfortunately, anxiety disorders are frequently treated by doctors unfamiliar with nutrition, who prescribe drugs that only mask the problem, rather than solve it.

If you have ever been under the dark cloud of “mood-enhancing” drugs, you already know some of the side effects.  Dr. David Sussman, quoted in Clinical Psychiatry News, lists the short-term side effects of nausea, diarrhea, headache, and agitation.  Long-term side effects – even more important due to the often long-term nature of such disorders – include, among others, “insomnia, weight gain, sexual dysfunction…”

As noted by Dr. Linus Pauling, PhD, two-time winner of the Nobel Prize, our first approach to healing should be to find the right molecule or nutrient to repair health, not a drug to hide the problem.

The problem may be as simple as not enough L-Tryptophan reaching your blood stream.

Remember that L-Tryptophan is not a drug and does not work like a drug.  L-Tryptophan is a natural, building-block of health that thousands of consumers around the world supplement their diet with every day.

Patients who have been misdiagnosed and are experiencing  the side effects of SSRI’s or other serotonin-mimicking drugs should know that they have a natural alternative.

Many who are deficient in L-Tryptophan and who suffer anxiety disorders may experience improvement in just a few weeks… although we do recommend allowing sixty days for full benefits.  In either case, you receive the same, no-questions, LIDTKE 100% money-back guarantee.

LIDTKE L-Tryptophan Complete is a patent-pending formula designed to ensure that you receive the most benefit from L-Tryptophan.  You cannot buy better quality than LIDTKE.

Remember the LIDTKE guarantee, and give L-Tryptophan Complete a try… from the people who care enough to do it right!

"I just wanted to say thank you for putting out such a great product. Your tryptophan has literally saved my life. About 25 years ago, I was in a car accident where I fell asleep at the wheel and crashed. Ever since then, I have not been able to fall asleep. That is until my mind is totally exhausted. I have that defensive syndrome where if I am falling asleep and I hear a noise that startles me awake, I am up for hours. About 3 years ago, my wife heard your ad on the radio and took a chance and purchased your tryptophan for me. Well, that was a chance well taken. I have been taking Bios tryptophan every night and in doing so I am guaranteed sleep. Those of us who have gone through years of sleep deprivation will be forever grateful to you for the quality of your products. As I said before, you literally saved my life and I for one will be forever grateful. Thank you. All the best,"

"I used your L Tryptophan for a few years before trying another brand. I was so disappointed in the other brand - it just didn't work. I have now gone back to your brand and I noticed a great improvement in my sleep. Thank you for a wonderful product!"

"I have been taking L‑Tryptophan for my great difficulty with sleeping for at least 20 years. I am a 90 year old man and have been purchasing your L‑Tryptophan and your True B6 "P5P" since 1997. I would like to say you have a very good firm to deal with.

My doctor had recommended L-Tryptophan for me to take at night, 2 capsules before bedtime every evening. This product works much better than the drug "Prozac". For one thing, L-Tryptophan has many more benefits and uses than Prozac, and it is an all natural product that is non-addictive. I have had friends that had children on Prozac that committed suicide. I am a strong believer in L‑Tryptophan!

I have been recommending your company and the L-Tryptophan for years to my friends as well as my family. My children use your company's L‑Tryptophan as well as my grandson. It helped my grandson when he was going through a very nervous period in his life. After using this supplement he was able to sleep, it calmed his nerves and he was able to study. I am a CPA, and my son that is also a CPA uses your L‑Tryptophan during tax season when it is very stressful. He says he is as good as new thanks to this product!

I have heard L‑Tryptophan has been around for 100 years and I will continue to use it indefinitely."

"Absolutely wonderful company and excellent customer service. Bios L‑Tryptophan is truly a life saver for me. It is an amazing product that calms me down and sends me off to sleep with none of the nasty side effects that you would get from traditional drug-based sleep medication. L‑Tryptophan gives your body what it needs and the results are quite dramatic...works on me within 30-40 minutes. Also I notice I feel calmer and happier the next day after taking it..Fantastic!.. Thanks Bios!!!!

I want to tell you that your L‑Tryptophan has been a miracle for my mother who is 81 and has not slept well since she was 17 years old. She is not only sleeping, but I have never seen her so happy. This has changed her life and we thank you!

You do not know how this has effected me also since I feel so relieved with her new sleeping pattern. She now has more energy than me! That's why I want to use the product also. I want to feel as good as my mother and I am 30 years younger!!

Thanks, again,"

"L-Tryptophan has been the most effective treatment I have found for depression and manic depression, and believe me I've tried them all. I suffer no side effects, and can move through life with zest and energy, yet relax when it is time to wind down. During the years that Tryptophan was unavailable, I suffered, trying every prescription medication and reeling from side effects or breakthrough symptoms. Thank you for continuing to make the best Tryptophan available."

"The LIDTKE Technologies L-Tryptophan has allowed me to avoid taking an SSRI for anxiety and panic attacks. I have been taking it for about 3 weeks now at the maximum dosage on the bottle and I have seen a gradual improvement during this time. I would highly recommend it for anyone whose life is being controlled by anxiety. I can function again!! Thank you LIDTKE Technologies!"
