sleep medication ## Tryptophan or L-Tryptophan is not an actual medication, it is a natural substance that is present in many foods and is sometimes processed and sold as a supplement, because it can cause drowsiness and induce sleep. Thus, it can be found in most drug or vitamin stores. It's very commonly found in many starchy foods, such as potatoes, which is why people eat a huge holiday dinner and then feel drowsy afterwards. Are there any questions or comments? Is there anything I can help with?

For many years I suffered from symptoms of psoriasis. Since December last year I drink kangen water. A friend of mine told me I should try it and see how my skin would react. Today I may say thank you to him. It was one of the greatest gifts I ever received. You can tell me about your experiences with drinking water and learn a lot from others too. ## Can you please post more details about this kangen water? Some more information would be helpful for visitors to this page. I have heard of it before, I think it is a technology from Japan which electrically charges water to either be ph positive or negative depending on the specific uses. What else should others know about this? ## Hi Crystal, although I knew about the recommendation of drinking at least 70 oz of water daily I had problem...
