[RC] [RC] L-Tryptophan - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: Nicole z_arabs@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================


L-Tryptophan is an amino acid, not a drug. It is

found in turkey which is why everyone wants to crash
after Thanksgiving dinner.  You can buy it at health
food stores. <<

Of course.  However, this goes right back to the INTENT in the 
AERC "drug" rule.  It also goes back to how some of us feel about
things just from a philosophical standpoint. If I'm feeding it
for nutritional reasons and understand that *proper* nutrition
will affect performance, that's one thing. If I'm feeding it for
"performance enhancing" or calming properties, that's something
else.  And Ultium appears to be making claims about the latter.

Just because something is "natural" or not a "drug" doesn't mean
it's "not a drug." <eg>
