One thing to consider is the results of experiments conducted in the early 1990s manipulating amino acid intake in people with depression and those without depression. The people with depression had been stabilized and in remission on a serotonin reuptake inhibitor. In depressed people, a diet lacking tryptophan resulted in a relapse into depression. That same diet had no effect on healthy control subjects.

Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
